Function over fashion!!! I don’t want trailmater lifting this out or off of trails I want to drive in help and drive out!! I new you had the team to build this truck to its ultimate potential and I can’t wait to see what you guys do to it!!! Thank you for doing it!!

I jumped back to refresh my memory of that happened in part 1 before I started watching part 2.

Diamond billed Lizard picker upper. New name for wrecker. Ha. Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

"To those I’ve offended, I apologize. To those I haven’t, hang around. You’re times coming". That should be a t-shirt.

That might be Ed's first truck.....

Man A AA wrecker... i love the look of that thing

love to see people still using older power. it just works. i have to watch more of this now.

Oh Rory take as long as you like because it's going to be fantastic watching xx

So glad that you started take your time and take me along thanks for sharing 👍😀

soooo many quotable quotes. great video full of love and info as usual

Rory I love your contacts you’re down to earth builder keep it up and stay safe

There is a big difference between restoring an antique and building a working truck that looks like an antique. What fun this is going to be watching you figure out all the details.

I have so many builds to watch now. Matt’s off road, fab rats, and now you guys 😅😅😅 I’m currently rebuilding my Baja bug and can’t get away vehicle builds… (I watch these videos at lunchtime at work) this universe is saying build it faster this could be you…

Lots and looooots of "chippy choppy" and "weldy weldy" gonna happen on this build. Going to be great!

Love the little post-ending vignettes.

Rory I appreciated the emphasis on safety. Nostalgia is good but as always safety wins the day. Trying to maintain nostalgia can be disastrous.

Take your time. Gives me something to live for😂. Also the V 10 never missed a gas station. One of many thing they can't pass.

Great news!! You're getting started on the old "Robby Layton" wrecker!!! That thing is going to be SOOOOOOOOOOO cool!!!

Noticing movement and jerking your hand back is the correct response. I loved catching lizards as a kid. I was in Arkansas visiting family and thought I saw a lizard tail poking out from under a rock. I flipped the rock and grabbed it real quick. It was a flipping tarantula😅🤣 lesson learned

You got to love the ingenuity of whoever built the wrecker boom!!! Run whatcha brung!!

Sweet build. Can’t wait for part 2. Weekly updates? Even if nothing is done, lol just tahdah same as last week see ya next time!

I suspect his thing is going to take as long as the Golden Nugget if not longer. The body is going to need some major work. A 302 would have be nice but I have no idea if it would fit. You have to work with what you know so I'm sure I'll love whatever you do.

Thank you guys for posting. Sitting here in central Florida.. after Ian....no power..no TV.. no nothing.. thank God for your videos!

Good God have you bitten off a mouth full with that project... I'm with you for an old school small block for power...

That truck is going to be so cool, can't wait, be better with a 302 in it

Oh man... I miss shop talk! And I'm sure you guys edited out plenty.... 20 years as a Tech, and I destroyed my shoulder. (let heavy shit fall!) I'm looking forward to that side of the build as well! And yes... V10's are good for one thing. Taking gas and turning it into noise!

Man i can't wait to see the old girl on the move once again.👍🇺🇸👍

Hard-working man, Thank you for your honesty and the jokes you make about the comments. I love watching your videos. Keep them coming😃👍🏻 greetings from Holland

My grandad had me cutting metal from cars from the twenty’s and thirty’s for projects. Everything looks familiar. I was a child. Takes me back. I can almost smell the old car smell. Good work from my viewpoint. Thank you.

Take your time Rory! 😂 lol I’m just glad y’all got her in the shop now, I’ll just wait to see the updates and videos on the Robby Wrecker! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I'm not losing my mind. I'm 68, my mind is almost lost. I agree with the plan. Small block engines are great!

its amazing ,they built this great country with that technology!!!!!

Yes 🎉🎉🎉 I have been waiting for this exact build

I can just hear the comments, is it done yet, is it done yet. This will be coming from those that have never built a custom vehicle. As much as I am a Ford person you are right. Older small block Chevy kick a$$. The V 10 Ford is nothing better than a boat anchor. Looking forward to this as it comes. Thanks for sharing. Have fun at trail hero

Been wondering when Robby's wrecker build was going to begin. This will be an interesting project to follow😆 Between Matt's, Fabrats, Robby, Chad's Fab, this, & add Rudy's we have automotive builds to keep everyone busy🤣🤣

That truck can only be named Tin Lizard.. Has to be, to honor your new shop mascot!

I love how Rory can drive millimetres away from a 10,000ft drop whilst steering with one hand and drinking from a can of soda with the other without flinching....then a tiny Lizard scurries away from him and he turns into the fastest moving object on Earth 😅 Keep up the Fab content Rory and the Moab Team 🦎

I am intrigued. I would love to see the old instrument cluster back in it and working. That would give it just the right look.

That truck is awesome, I can't wait to see this build. I already know it's going to be beautiful. Thanks for sharing with us. That was something to find that "Roosevelt" button under the seat. Can't wait to see how that is incorporated?

Rory , bro all the fans of the quad 4 , Yourself , Matt's , Fab Ratts and Mr. Layton all know Robby's tow is gonna take a long time ! Just like the Golden Nugget ! You all have buisiness' to run and jobs to do ! Lives to live , just more content for us to enjoy !! Keep doing what you and your crew are doing ! We'll be here watching !

Rory this build is going to be great!!!!! I like the idea of using the iron block 350 chevy very good choice. You have a great crew. Safety is differently number one. Thanks again for sharing.☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Robbie definitely got the right shop for this build. It won't be a trail mater but it will be awesome.

The V-10 served a purpose and you called it, Rory. Boat Anchor. I've had lots of small block Chevy motors in everything from a '63 Landcruiser to a '74 Camaro to an '89 GMC 3/4 ton 4x4, etc. No way to go wrong with them. They make adapters and accessories for everything you care to do with them.

I love Robbie’s truck and I love the direction you seem to be taking with it. That patina the rest is priceless!

Now I think I need to build my Mower Wrecker. I've built everything else I can think of for our race team and my swap meet cruiser, the Mudder, and my mini JD Tractor. Watching you guys build your tow trucks has got me thinking. Kinda like Cars and Cameras did the budget jet boat. Be well and have fun, all. Ill catch ya later, Mater.

I only saw the tittle yet and i already know it's gonna be a good one ! Thanks Rory and the team :)

Awesome 👌 my favorite part of your channel is the fabrication.

This is going to be a cool build to watch. Take your time and do your thing, I'll make popcorn and grab a beverage ;-)

I've been looking forward to this build. I't going to be interesting to see what you do with this old truck.

Not just the cracks in the tow arm, but I bet there is plenty of metal fatigue that can't be seen. Definitely the right choice to build a new one.

That pin has to be worth something to a collector! Finding it in the truck is even cooler!

I think you are right about making another boom/winch setup. Anyone that has tried to marry frame materials that are more than two decades apart can vouch for the fact that there is a huge difference between the two. In short, modern day frame materials are a lot more durable. And that winch, though the creativity of the person that built it could be admired, the materials it was made from and the welding means it's place is best where it was, most likely, most used - in the junkyard itself (and that done with extreme caution). Even current era frames can have a big difference between them, in regard to flexibility. A utility bed manufacturer I delivered for started putting a wider gap between the factory cab and their beds on the Dodge chassis, because the flex that was engineered into the frames could cause the cabs and beds to foul each other if the trucks were towed while loaded to max capacity. Have fun with it. It will be interesting to see how this develops. I'll be looking forward to seeing how you get power to your tandem rear axles on the 6x6 build. Probably not at all like I'd planned for mine ... but you probably won't have the advantage of having "double-deep 5 under."

I have been looking forward so much to this build. I am an avid fan of Matt's and Fab Rats' builds, and this has the potential to be superb viewing. Not only that, but I am going to learn a lot about Rory's engineering philosophy - and that can only be a good thing.

This is honestly the best channel on RU-vid. It is fun to see your adventures and the passion you have for your work, as well as your honesty and integrity. Keep em' coming!

Robbie’s tow truck is going to be awesome I am sure after the fabrication journey. I assume robby will sand blast and paint that truck. Playing mix and match is definitely a challenge, it test your skills.

I'm a Ford guy and that V10 is definitely a boat anchor....sink it lol. I dig the concept of this truck, and I agree - it's gotta be done right and safe to do the work intended.

Ive been waiting for this video, new subscriber here, discovered y'all because of robbie, keep it up love yalls work

Finally an update! I was starting to wonder if the project was abandoned, literally no one has talked about it since you picked it up, not even Robby

"the concept is awesome...but I have concerns" 🤣🤣my favorite quote of the day

❤️. These end so soon. You all are so interesting and fun. Rory, what ever you decide will be perfect. With the three of you working on it What one doesn’t think of the other will. God bless you all and be happy. ❤️❤️🙏🙏👍👍❤️❤️

I'm pushin' 70 a bit here. I grew up on a salvage yard back in the 60s and have seen a few things go horribly wrong. I appreciate your attention to prevention of needless calamities!! Make it work safely. Take your time as you get the details right the first time. ya doin' good!!

I think Rory is the realist of them all because he keeps it a buck 💯 with everything and everybody. He doesn't sugar coat ish!!

As soon as you put that cab on the new chassis...you can see the dream..can't wait for the next episode...I'm doing a 1937 international on a Pajero frame, smaller vehicle project but just as cool..

The absolute best U tube channel hands down looking forward to this build.

I have been waiting for this truck to start. cant wait to see what finished product looks like.

To be honest. I never even thought about his wrecker. I'm tuned in for your stuff. But, The RLN wrecker build will be cool to see as it goes.

Shawn seems like super cool dude! He's a great Team Member

I'm just happy for the amount of viewers, views and the content to ur videos. you always say thanks but THANK YOU. I've been to moab once. all I can think of is getting back. im in Texss we have some trail's definitely a different place. no public land nothing compares to what Yall wake up to.

You have me hooked. I look forward to future videos of this build. Thanks!

So are you, Robby and Matt all competing for coolest off-road wrecker build ever?! I honestly couldn't pick one over the others.

It's fun to see these tow truck build off. Matt's, Paul's, and now Rory's for Robbie. I'd love to see how you will build this up.

I don't think you've hated on the 4.6 L 1UR-FE V8 in my GX460 yet. Thanks. I also love the little clip after the "credits" it's like an Easter egg. 😂

The channel is getting better and better every week it seems

I love your channel because you keep things simple. No flashy make believe stuff. I don’t like how other channels show off how they think they are the best by flashing all their expensive rigs. You are down to earth people. All their money and give aways don’t impress me at all. Rory you are the best.

You are not going to believe how much this build is going to boost your channel. +400,000 subscribers I bet. Looking forward to the build with the 3 amigos.

Never thought I'd see the day when I wasn't pukin' sick of small block Chevy swaps but the LS currently holds that honor. Gonna be a cool 'ol truck.

i'm loosing my mind because it's going to take a while - awesome to have another build series to watch every now and then

Patience grasshoppers! You can't rush cool, and there's a LOT cool going on here, from the truck, to the build, to the builders 👍👍

On a side note the shop looks good, it's come aways since you moved in, nice 👍

I have a 1930 Model A with a small block chevy and I used a BITCHN firewall so I could get the body forward. Love the channel!!

It’s a joy to watch Rory think and design out loud. Only a person who knows what they are doing can do that.

Cannot wait to see that truck it's going to be sweet

Great start Rory. Always love your shouts for "WAIT!", LMAO! And I loved "The concept is awesome, but I have concerns!"

Looking forward to watching you build this.

It's going to be an intresting build Rory. Can't beat an old school small block Chevy.

Good to see the Layton wrecker in the shop. Looking forward to following the build.

Rory I am cool calm, but it's going to be awesome. Have a good one Cheers Cape Town

I will be here every step of the way. I already know how cool it will be. Ford 351 out of a 96 Bronco will never let you down.

Hey Rory, we were the people that almost got in your way with the silver RV, as you were towing the old tow truck. We were stopping by to meet you and tell you a story, but you guys looked busy and I didn’t want to get in the way of you shot. Love you guys.

The 3 of you make a great team ! I'm ready for a long winter here top of indiana so there is a lot hours to watch the builds !

HoooRay ! The SalvageRex is underway !

It will get done not 1 min sooner take your time. I like all that you guys do.

This is awesome. Taking something old and making it new again. It is going to be fun to watch.

Keep up good work guys Love your videos. Hi from uk 🇬🇧

The only thing better than watching you do this , would be to be there working on the build ! I get it you need to set pieces together to see the assembly order . Get-r-started ! 🍻

You can call this "Ol' TowMater" w/respect to Merlin and his "TowMater." Cheers on this EPIC BUILD Guys ! 😉🙂😊😀

One of the best build series ever!! Thanks to Rory and his crew!!! Best regards from Norway!

Rory, I'm looking forward to the AA tow truck build. Awesome builds take a long time.

I'm loving the confused old lady photobomb.

Don't let them people get to you just do what you got to do when you can do it can't wait to see it God bless
