DRIVING Elvis Presley’s Abandoned Jet For The First Time 

Get a part of the Elvis Jet at www.SaveThe310.com before they are gone forever

Can't wait until DMV gets a look at this beast!

For safety reasons, body roll and flex and bad roads, please install a slip sleeve on your vertical steering shaft. One good bump and it could easily pull itself apart. 👍👍

I see a new shirt in the future... "None of it makes sense, but that doesn't mean is shouldn't be done." Good one @thedirtyknobs !

The Elvis Jet RV has left the building! 🛫😊

This magnificent contraption is absurdly majestic and majestically absurd at the same time

you need a pair of blue suede driving shoes when piloting that beauty. Way to go Jimmy you guys nailed it!!!

@22:31 a verse from the Jimmy bible is quoted: "I drive by faith and not by sight”. What a great day to see this moving under its own power, major milestone! Congrats Jimmy & crew.

As an ex-trucker, its Top-heavy, watch curves it’ll roll. After rethinking that is a rolling death trap, it is way too high off center of gravity.

Life wouldn’t be as interesting without the “Jimmy’s” of the world. :)

You took something that could never fly again and made something out of it to share with everyone. Awesome job

Seeing it back out of the building was awesome. Still a lot to do, but you have taken a dream and are making it a reality. Kudos to you and Grizzly and the whole team Jimmy.

The look on the machinist face as you were giving him the 'Butta-Bing-Butta-Boom' explanation was priceless.

Jimmy treading that fine between genius and insanity, just what we all need. Best of luck to you all.

I thought that was THE most CRAZY idea from a FULL TIME crazy person!!!! That is why it worked!!!!! All crew ---------> You are awosome guys GREAT respect!!!!!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE DETERMINATION , TO UNDERTAKE SUCH A HUGE PROJECT AND SEE IT THROUGH !!! GET ER’ DONE BOYS !!!

Love it. The wife and I may very well go to Oshkosh this year just to meet you and see this thing in person.

Jimmy I love Elvis keep his spirit alive!!!!!!!!

Great going, we are happy all went well! Greetings from Sunny South Africa

Oh, my word. You did it! Jimmy. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

You remember the Concord that had the whole nose fold down during take off and landing so they could actually see the runway. The Jimmy Jet needs the fold down nose to see the road.

I’ll definitely come and see it when it visits my town. (Naples, FL)

Looks wicked top heavy. You should have recessed the truck frame up into the fuselage. I doubt it's road legal the way it is.

The most American thing I've ever seen. Congrats, this is incredible.

Ghost bidders cost Jimmy a lot of money.

Hey jimmy! Just because it’s crazy doesn’t mean we don’t love it

Jimmy well done. You see things others don't !!

The definition of a conceptual design flaw. Perfect for RU-vid.

A beautiful energy of Elvis is on this beautiful creation.❤

It was a great decision. The plane was sitting, not being used.

You'll need to put a walkie talkie system in to talk to your ground crew and driver. This is so awesome!!!!

That is one big kid with a mustache jumping up and down with joy so cool its a great feeling to see something you fabricated work as planned. Congrats Jimmy so cool as Elvis would say thank Ya thank Ya very much.😂

Florida Man gets into an accident driving a plane on the highway. I can see the headlines now

Well I can tell officially it’s official, Jimmy’s Brain has left the building I shih-tzu not. Love this channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You salvaged a piece of history in a way that allows the most people to see. Do a Utah Bomb Run tour to/with Diesel Brothers, Chad's Fab, Robby Layton, Fabrats, Matt's ORR, Las Vegas, Merlins and finish up in Moab at TrailMaters.

The mechanics of this thing ..... awesome! Work of science and art, Jimmy. You are the best! I so enjoy this channel.

That was AWESOME!!! I did my own kind of Jimmy dance when I saw you start it, and then back it out of the hanger. Kudos to you and Grizzly on a job well done. Can't wait to see the total finished product. Thanks for sharing.

Coolest project I’ve ever seen! Congratulations on getting it moving! Freakin Awesome!!

Fantastic guys Grissly is the man. Can't wait to see it on the road. Much love from Australia ❤🇦🇺

Congratulations 🎊 Jimmy I've been there right from the start excellent can't wait to see it drive, it will certainly attract attention lol 😂 cheers 🥂

Nice Work Boys! Don’t Give up! Can’t wait to see finished product!!!

This is truly epic and I love it but I can only imagine how many adult situations took place in there , make sure you get it good and clean lolol 😂👍🏻🍻🇨🇦

Happy to see something cool happening with that old Jet. Love it !

"This is such a bad idea, I love it" 17:03 Yup Jimmy, I love it too haha

Congrats to you guys. Awesome journey so far with the Elvis Jet and looking forward to seeing its new future unfold!

Hello Jimmy and fans,👋. What could possibly go wrong 😉

Two words,Willy Wonka,crazy genious,so wrong, but right at the same time! I applaud you

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The KING is alive!!!! And kicking

I 100% support Jimmy's decision to drive the plane since it can't be flown.

@ 5:08 JImmy.. Subliminally got The King On the brain, doing the famous Elvis kneel, He's just missing the Tassels and cape😂😂😂😂

Absolute madness, total lunacy, bonkers... I love it😂

Drive by braille jimmy drive by braille, only stop when it sounds expensive! From a viewers standpoint it’s hard to believe a year has already passed. Love what your doing with it!

I think this is a train wreck but fun to watch.

This is so much better then letting it rot, or be cut up for scrap.

I first subscribed to Jimmys channel because of seeing that he was buying the Elvis jet ive since watched all previous videos on the channel and can say i never thought i could get this interested in areo content! Wether it's Jimmy trying to get an old abandoned airplane started or a museum tour or working on the Elvis transformation im here for it!! Exellent channel really really enjoy everything your doing!! Keep up the awesome work dude! Much love from the U.K 🇬🇧👍❤😊

Haha 😛 I sooo feel your excitement too. I reckon Elvis would be so stoked to see this journey. He’d luv it for sure.

That thing looks supper top heavy. It's a cool idea, but I fear this thing is going to hurt someone if not unalive them.

🎉you remind me of Wright brothers building the first plane 🎙🎸🎶 Its all Rock n Roll Baby

Just to hear and see Jimmy’s pure excitement and happiness, all worth it! 🤩🙌👍

Jimmy you crack us up jumping up and down like a little kid. Congratulations on getting the Elvis plane Rv going.

Proud of all of you! Looking forward to the first road trip. Stay safe.

Is this actually going to be street legal?

I was just reading an article not an hour ago about how no one knew what was going on with Elvis' other Jetstar, and now I know, and knowing is half the battle. Yo Joe!

Absolutely fantastic guys, that thing is mad! Congrats on the progress!

Most wild "hold my beer" ride EVAR!

You should cover the chassis with a fiberglass replica of a cloud!

Jimmy I’ve been watching all the way through this is the day that I have been watching for. It runs ❤ this will be awesome 😊❤

“I drive by Faith, not by sight” ❤

Unsafe at any speed!!!

Will DMV License it and will Insurance Insure it?

I think I would cut a bit deeper so the fuselage can sit down onto the frame. It'll be a lot of fabrication but would also be much safer and more stable. If not that option, you'll need fairings to "blend" the fuselage into the frame and cover all of the ugly, while still dealing with the lack of stability. It would look a lot better sitting lower as well...

For safety reasons, body roll and flex and bad roads, please install a slip sleeve on your vertical steering shaft. One good bump and it could easily pull itself apart

Sorry Jim, it looks a piece of junk, but I hope it works out for you.

All of the people asking, why would you cut up Elvis’s ABANDONED jet!

I really can't wait to see more of the Elvis jet, and you do need to get cameras to help you see keep up the great work.

I hope that someday I get to see this in person. GREAT JOB GUYS!

I still think it was an idiotic purchase

Ok just some ideas. Now when you want to cover the body to frame (skirting) Use the top and bottom panels from the wings. Put the rear cone back on and insert a 360 camera in the tip for rear view. source some jet engine cowlings and use half for fenders. Make some mud flaps from runner carpet from a jet and dye it with runway pattern or taxi way pattern on them with led lights. You might have body to chassis issues ( stress cracks, bolts break, aluminum body fail ) if you don't create a cradle to match body curve and chassis frame. You created an hour glass shape and the smallest area is the weakest point Just my opinion it looks very weak, undersized for safe use. Hit me up if you want more ideas or would like some assistance. This is the Best project i am waiting every day for updates this is great. you guys are doing It . Congrats it moves!!.

Cant wait to see all the windows untaped and whole fuselage cleaned up!

A lot of giddy there. I can't believe it has been a year already geez. Great job guys, great job.

70% of todays population has no idea who Elvis is. I share his birthday (January 8th). I am glad you have the nads to take this on...fun project.

Sketchiest, craziest and yet coolest thing I’ve ever seen! Awesome job!

As someone who likes doing my own stuff other than get a professional to do it, It amazes me how some people have so much talent and ideas on the keyboard but probably they have never built a paper toy truck! Jimmy is just one amazing guy and that's why we all come here to see what he is doing not to tell him what to do.

Nice work Grizzly. Can’t wait to see it rolling down the highway.

Awesome job Jimmy and crew!

Congratulations on getting the Elvis jet moving under its own power! Amazing...

That's about as good-looking as Elvis is today. I have a feeling that the fuselage is gonna fall off the chassis when you corner at anything more than 10mph. But it is awesome.

It's such an incredible build! I enjoy following the updates. Thank you, Jimmy, for doing this wacky build and sharing it with all of us.

That is soo awesome! I was born in Roswell and worked out at the airport for many years. I would drive by the Elvis plane everyday and just stare at it wondering if anything would ever be done with it. It was a bit sad when I heard it no longer sits out there anymore. On the positive side, soo happy for you and your crew, amazing job and wishing you all the best.

G,day Jimmy and Grizzly from Sydney Australia. That's terrific, very satisfying seeing precise engineering (steering column). I was thinking about the rear vision mirrors, but a camera system is much better. 🕺🇺🇲

Good job Jimmy and crew. Keep up the good work it's looking good

Amazing Jimmy you did it can't wait to see you drive it on the road.

I enjoyed watching! I seen the first now to this! Amazing! 😊❤

That's awesome Jimmy and griz that's a mikemarker accomplishment gentlemen 🎉🎉🎉 congrats on a win can't wait for the next video

Jimmy you are fantastic! I love your projects, please keep them coming

Waow, your center of gravity will be much higher then it was an RV....., curieus to hear how it will drive. Good luck!

Love how Jimmy gets so excited like a kid 😁

Jimmy, you are a visionary and amazing! Your bravery is inspiring and you laughter is a joy. Grizzly is simply a mechanical genius too! Your teamwork is the key to the success of the Elvis Busjet!

thanks for keeping it alive......🎼🎵🎶🎵
