Let's Build A RatRod/Gambler500 Rig Using Only Junkyard Parts Before They Close And It Gets Crushed! 

That 66 Dodge Charger at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="55">0:55</a> into the video( left side of the screen ) would be a great restorer. Great content as usual!

Gambler build makes sense. To me doing another rat rod removes motivation to complete the other one with the same cab. Interesting video, pal. Great work

Just finished high school and wanting to build a rat rod, hopefully this video and your channel will give me ideas on the dos and donts

4x4 rat rod truck. Daily or mud truck would be cool. Ugly as sin, functional, and reliable.

I AM 83 YEARS OLD AND DRIVE A 1951 STUDEBAKER AS WELL AS A 1901 OLDSMOBILE REPRODUCTION BILT IN 1952. aND i WILL KEEP THEM RUNNIG AND ON THE ROAD ASLONG AS i AM ALIVE. I CRY WHEN I SEE NEWER CARS JUNKED BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A WASTE. THEY ALL COULD STILL BE RUNNING IF PEOPLE CARED.

I’m a Willy’s Jeep nut ! I will definitely be watching what you do with it ! You did a great job saving some of the old cars and trucks . Can’t save them all bro 👍

It's a good day when you get to come home and chill watchin some country boy gas garage👍

That willys cab would make a cool 4x4 rat rod with that 73 chassis. You have a good heart Jason!

I'm just pumped to live close enough to check out your works of art. And possibly pick a person's brain with my own projects

Gambler 500 build sounds fun!

I LOVE IT!!!!! THAT IS RECYCLING!!!!! AND SAVING THE PLANET!!!! I LOVE YOUR IDEA!!!!! SOMETHING TO CONSIDER WHEN BUILDING A RAT ROD!!!!! GREAT VIDEO & EDUCATION. THANKS FOR SHARING!!!

So many classic cars 😳

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="780">13:00</a> was a nice Rat prospect it looked like,the fins was a sick idea ,though !😮

4 wheel drive rat rod. Yeeeaaah!

Great video. I love ratrods

Seeing the opening walkthrough made my mouth water so much potential in those cars!

Bad Chad needs to find this place

Stock Jeep cab on a stock Blazer chassis, just go crazy on the bed for it using the caddy parts. CJ7 front grafted onto the front too.

Another great video. Keep up the great work

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="771">12:51</a> the front of that quarter panel looks like it has a skull painted on, but I think that’s patina!

You walk right by a couple of Toyota trucks that look like rollers, have Ford bolt pattern and anything can drop in them

I'm thinking a 4WD ratrod truck would be super cool. SBC with some power parts. Chopped, channeled, finned shorty bed, zoomies, bigs all way round. Would definitely by something different. Be safe and stay well.

Looking forward to more videos on your future RatRod 😊

Came over from Facebook, church bus rescue, have a great day. 😊

There is so much potential in that place I'd hate to see it go to a crusher I hope someone buys it Great video once again 👍👍👍 Revival revival revival

Found your channel today and subscribed to it today 👍

Hey man I live in Springfield Oregon good content I'm looking forward to this build!!!

Awesome 👍 that be a beautiful ride

Looking forward to seeing what's in store brother, thanks for sharing, kool as heck that place is. ALOHA

My son and I are planning a build like this but were not building a rat rod, were going to build a finished hot rod because we want to show people that they can have a finished out hot rod for alot less money than they think. Were starting with a 63 chevy cab and a 76 GMC 4wd frame. I've never been a fan of finned bed sides but they are growing on me and a friend of mine has a 4 door 60 rambler that he's been asking me to come and get to do something with so I might come get it and take the quarter panels and rear door skins off to make bed sides with, When we get to the paint were going to use Flat International Harvester Red just like the O.G. Hot Rodders did coming back from WWII. The goal is to build a tradional hot rod out of parts available and just laying around just like my granddad did in 1947 when his Army Air Corps enlistment was up.

Best junkyard content so far for me on yt💯💪❤

Badass video, also I don't know where that scrapyard is but I'd best not find it because I'd go broke there

Willis jeep cab with the caddy fenders on a 4x4 frame would make a badass ratrod gambler

You didn’t build it 10-12 years ago, you started it 10-12 years ago. Git-r-dun!

Definitely do a will it run on the rat rod

Great video and a solid idea to save some old steel!! May have to check out that borescope, been thinking about picking one up. Let's get that ratrod going!!

All your music an video's rock!!!!!! Love your channel an content seem to be pretty laid back.

You have grown a lot of confiedence and seem to talk more. Its good to see you improving as you grow.

Thanks! Super excited to see this truck some together!

I’d really like to get the Chevy truck fenders off the 40’s truck in line in front of the Caddy donor!

I’ve mentioned doing this type of build on a few channels. The only other thing I would have done was grabbed an engine from the yard to. But I’m looking forward to seeing this someday

Lowkey the '60 Continental fins would look really good as a bed on it especially if you go for the rambler 500 build. Hell you've picked so much off that one at the yard that you might as well just take the rest of the car! lol

I've got a truck that was going to be turned minitruck ( 80s/early 90s Dodge Dakota) but may turn it rat rod instead.

I would have a field day there I love places like that the one we had local the dad died and the son crushed everything

That was a freakin Hearse there by the suspension stuff !! Gahh I want it! 😢

Be a great build to follow along. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍

This is going to be good one from scrap to Rod 👍👍👍👍👍

What a sad day when we have to crush classic cars like this I wish I was closer and had the room I would definitely buy something to have

That looks like a good scope. Can't tell you how many heads I HAVEN'T pulled thanks to a borescope I've borrowed. Seems like a great discount. Need to check out owning one myself LOL.

Looking forward to more like this. Great job 👍👍👍

That endoscope looks better than the one I see other You Tubers use.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="774">12:54</a> I can't tell what that pickup is, but that would also be a great candidate for a rat rod.

Always sad when an old junkyard like this closes at least some of the stuffs getting saved

Hi Jason. My name ist James. It looks like its going to pretty interesting what youre going to build. I'll be following along. Im over here in Berlin Germany and always wouldve liked to build one my self, but never did 'cause of different reasons. Nice meeting you and thanks for sharing it. Goog luck and Im looking forward dir future episodes. Thumb up! :)

Great vid, really enjoyed!! 👍👍

Grab the yellow Studebaker box!

The front fenders from that Lincoln I think would actually work for bed sides. Such a shame to see any of that old metal wasted.

I really look forward to the Rat Rod!

4 wheel drive rat rod👍

I want to see it go back as a four wheeler myself.. I love a willys

will be on my way coastal check ya on the way back ..

I need that gear stick on that willy in My Xb ! !

Would've been great to see someone go through the process of actually doing a 70s Ford rat truck. I've seen a handful and going to do one myself eventually from my 79 f100 flareside

A 4x4 rat rod would be sick. Maybe use a old school big block or a 2 stroke Detroit.

Love them camera's there the best, save a lot of money and time, cool show brother👊 cheers🍻🍺 KC Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝😊😎👍

I was thinking one of those old Datsun pickups would be a good frame donor. Those old Willys cabs weren't very big.

58 caddy Finned bed 4x4 rat rod built for the gambler.

Kudos to you mate.I'm jealous. Keep the videos coming,ok.

Rat rod, I would go with the Caddy fins myself...Caddy style air filter, unless you're gonna use a blower/ bird catcher???

Awesome video brother! That’s junkyard is my heaven 😳 so sad a lot will be crushed 😢

The Caddy and Lincoln that gave up the fins had frames. What was unsuitable about those frames?

I see you still havent done a followup video on this build. I'd like to see this done with kind of way: Channeled down on the frame, big engine with big supercharger and ton of chrome. Roof chopped 5 inches. Big Ford Model A style radiator/grille and big chrome headlights. No hood, no fenders. Straight front axle with narrow bike tyres, but huge drag slicks in the back. Proper coilover and 4link suspension, none of that airride shit. Aluminium bomber style seats paired with bead rolled door cards.

Cool video,, the last video you made of the wrecking yard made me request a Eugene run.. saw a few items and some photo worthy vehicles at the Springfield wrecking yard which will become hand made post cards .. my day was made thanks to you guys..

Gt cobra 500 in the first minute! Black and orange. Save that shell

There was a model A front axle with wheels you walked past twice. somewhere around <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="900">15:00</a>

would love to see a 4x4 ratrod build and you already have a classic ratrod whit the same cab so it makes more sense to do a 4x4 build

Did you happen to see if that 60 lincoln had good front inner fenders. Called there but didn't get any info.

I like where you’re going with another Willys build Jason and the Caddy Quarter’s would look Kick A$$ for the box 🏆totally killer and you just made me think about doing the same thing with a ole 56 ford cab I have for the box , I got a few different rear ford quarters to choose from 55 victory or 61 galaxie or 64 galaxie instead of buying a bed Thanks for the videos and waking me up to the different options I have right in my backyard 🏆

Those quarter panels don't go with the cab at all.. Don't ask me if you might not like my answer

Thats ashame them cars are getting crushed

It makes way more since to start over on the rat rod you stated instead of messing around with something that wont happen: shop for the cab, get a real dash up for it, pan the floor, deal with the suspension, fix th engine, clean it up use it and sell it. turn a buck or two on it.

A 4x4 rat rod would be awesome. And it's already set up for a small block Chevy

I’m new to your channel. Wow, so many cars with potential! Is the owner not having an auction before the crusher comes? We’ve had some BIG auctions in the Midwest that have done really well and saved lots of vehicles and parts from the crusher!

My mrs knows your mrs. I had her send along my contact info. I bought all of chucks 20s and some 30s stuff as well as i buy and sell parts if you need parts!

P;EASE EXCUSE THE CAPS, I AM NEAR BLIND WHEN TYPING. BUT CAN STILL SEE FAR. MAN I WISH I COULD GET THE WOOD SPOKE WHEEELS TO FIT MY 1901 OLDSMOBILE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE LIKE HARLEY DAVIDSON SIDE CAR WHEELS.

U know if he's got 40 chev coupe..I need a firewall ID metal tag ..I'll buy quick or a 38 - 41 will work ..I bought a 40 Chevy but they modified the fire wall to fit a 454 ..and they lost tag ..

Hi Jason, hoping you had a Happy Thanksgiving.. If the front clip of the 1961, 2 or 3 Imperial by Chrysler is available it would be worth it's weight in gold as it is all one peace.

New to the channel. Does anyone know the origin of the bus in the into ? I was born in Stafford Va. I’m wondering if its from the same Stafford

New to ur channel. Subscribed after the intro of walking through the junkyard plus 1 minute lol. But anyway, I've been trying to find a channel that has or thought about doing a build that I want to try to do. The build would be a mini semi truck rat rod build. Frame from say s10/ranger to f150, using a hood from a model a, but adding a flat sheet of medal where the hinge is to square it off, figuring out how to do dual axle in the back, and go from there. I haven't seen one channel in all of my searches that has attempted something like this 😔. And I would like some guidance on if this is even possible. Or if someone has done it how hard is it.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1031">17:11</a> that poor 300zx... 😢

Let me guess ,either Mohave desert California,( high desert),or near Rosamond ?? I live in Arizona for the last twenty four years,so I'm not cheating,lol 🤣🙏🏼 Maybe Tehachapi mountains ? 😅

Do they have a website or auction ? I'm looking for another 65 f-100 for a parts truck.

That Will make à great rat rod/gamber project! What engine and transmission you thinking about using? Glad your saving some of that good old iron! I wish i didn't live in Pennsylvania i would be there checking out those old vehicles! Take care!

That 51 does may not have been good to build but the sheet metal would be goog for patch panels for rust repair on a project. That's what I see when I see stuff like that is cheap good sheet metal.

I hear S10 frames get used alot to put other bodys on.. I would get one if I could..just to have around..

What is the name of the tool u looked in the engine with and where can I get one thanks

I built a rock bouncer out of a 52 Willy’s cab

Dude I live in Springfield and got to admit I kinda wish you would do what you say you’re going to do. You said you were going to build a rat rod then you say a gambler type “which I don’t even know what that is. Then you change to you want to finish the other rat rod you and your friend already started. So I got to ask you do you really ever get anything completed or do you just walk around in salvage yards and talk about doing stuff. I enjoyed watching you do the bus & I am local so I want to see you do good. So I am asking you to do something start to finish

Who was it in particular that sent you the scope and are they the ones that is giving the discount? Ebay? Amazon? What is the name of the outfit that sent it to you? What model exactly is the scope? It should have been on the Box or a data plate on the back?

I'm new to your channel but enjoy everything I've saw where are you located
