Lifting Elvis Presley's RETIRED Private Jet into Final Resting Place... 

What are the future plans for the plane?

@@corradovanaken3553 scrap

Airanb or something think that I think

Go watch Jimmys channel

Stretched Peterbilt frame

They should of left the plane for someone who would actually restore it. It is bad taste to do what they did. I find it hard to believe that they couldn't find anyone else willing to take on the project.

That's exactly what I said. It's totally wrecked now.

Crash and burn 🔥

@@CommentsAllowed it was not restorable, watch the videos. The parts it needed to be restored do not exist, the engines are also too loud to legally fly. it was best case to do this.

I completely agree. I think it would have been great if it could have been restored as a static exhibit, cleaned out, rotten metal replaced, cleaned off on the outside, re-painted, replica engine nacelles fabricated ...even with no real engines inside it would have looked great. Jimmy considered it as an Air B&B and I thought that was great idea, they could have had all the interior restored to its former glory, had a modern multi media system 'sensitively' installed with lots of footage of The King on tap, maybe a flight simulator up front, emergency exits and fire precautions all fully functional. That's me though, ever the fantacist :-) I have been to Memphis and I'm sure I remember a similar plane there just outside the entrance to Gracelands.

It was painful to watch. 😞

Me too

Tim only has a channel on here because of bruce

You forgot Jimmy

Y_

And jimmy

Man add rebuild rescue and that’s a heck of a video!!

Don’t forget the King!

I know right, a pile of old festering junk ... lol However if he does something with it that makes him a lot of money then it's worth it.

How much per click? I think this thing breaks even on the views alone.

​@@dirtcurt1do you actually think that 355k views paid for this $240k junk? Really..

Air bnb, mentioned Dolly Partons tour bus which apparently is $10k/night, which is stupid.. Despite Elvis owning this jet it's said he never stepped into it, so it was only Elvis owned, I'd say $250/night is even a bit of a stretch..

@@slanger2563 335k views today, probably 20 million over a few years on a single video. Play the long game and you win.

who? Bruce and Tim? They have been friends a long time.

Professional ??? those guys were a joke !!

Yep ans JIM don't get it. Its easy to save this plane he will not lissen

RU-vid had nothing to do with moving this plane.

@@Michael-mo1lx I think it's the fanboys that won't listen. There is no way to make this POS flyable.

@@buckmurdock2500 everything is possible today.. you only need money

Where theyp putting the

@@edwood8698 LOL

It doesn't weigh a whole lot without people, luggage, engines, fuel, and water. I think it probably weighs 10-26k lb

the parts they hauled was about 16,000 lbs.

@@buckmurdock2500 how much in rat shit

Not a big piece of history. You wee duped.

Or saw it into a million pieces with a reciprocal saw and totally destroy it. If you added all of these guys IQ points together you wouldn't break 100.

So very true. Trying to read and interpret many of these comments you realize how many folks skipped out on grammar and composition when they were given the opportunity to learn such.

@@davidpeterson7197 You do like to moan.

@@davidpeterson7197 Yes and it is getting worse by the year...Most kids today can hardly read let alone write! Damn shame the direction we are headed in.

Rebuild was a bidder on the jet.

Same and I'm 27

Puddins fab shop is a family man too.

realize ?

@@Roger_Rabbit_Adventures 🤦‍♂️

It’s in the best place in the USA to be Cut-up for sure!!! Ol’ Brucie knows all about Chopping!!! He’s a world-famous Chopper and shopper!!

It didn’t have to be cut up!

Not too many people interested in watching this! I wonder why. And did you ever think what a bad time it is for the Presleys right now? No consideration!

Disgusting!

If you want Jimmy, the owner would gladly sell it to you or anybody else for the $250;000 he paid for it and eat the $25,000 he spent to have it disassembled and readied for transport then trucked to Florida. Honestly I bet he’d take $200,000 just to be rid of the thing. It’s an albatross at this point, it can never legally fly in the USA again and would cost a minimum of 5.5 million to make it able to fly at all, which could only legally be done in airspace outside the USA, Canada, or any of the EU. Even to just restore it to a static display / museum piece would require gutting the entire interior (which is where Elvis actually sat) because it is a health hazard. You can’t clean rodent feces and urine from fabric or porous surfaces and it’s very hazardous to human health. I’m a fan of Jimmy (the owner)) because he saves old airplanes and fixes them up….this one was just too far gone. I do agree “chop shop” Bruce Wilson posting this was in bad taste though

Totally agree!! A crane would be better and safer, with proper rigger .. instead of winging it ...

And maybe some rated straps

No disrespect, but trying to figure out the relevancy of your comment. It has already been said that Jimmy plans to retrofit the cockpit and cabin area to either a RV or perhaps a bed and breakfast. The rest of the plane is going to be sold to collectors of Elvis memorabilia. He plans to sell very small sections (thinking perhaps 1" X 1") of the Skin in of the remaining plane to Elvis fans. None of it is going to be sold as scrap metal that I have ever heard following this whole project. He could easily net 100 times the scrap price selling 1 oz pieces to fans for $20 (Guess) to fund the main project. The entire plane structure/frame was totally unsafe due to corrosion so absolutely not safe to ever fly again obviously, and I would bet the cost to have it moved intact would have been far more than he would ever recoup to set it as a static display. The man has already invested close to a quarter million into just buying the plane before he ever cut it up in sections to haul it to this location. It was a well known auction as well so hardy a "Find" either? There was quite a few bidders and the price went up faster than anyone ever thought for buying it for scrap. Just a tad confused unless you haven't seen the story from the beginning and all other posts from all RU-vidrs that tried to buy or have documented on Jimmy's channel and others.

Have you ever heard of a run on sentence?

@@davidpeterson7197 I'm sure you could understand it.

@@repaid1317 you are absolutely correct and I did watch the video but of course I was stating the obvious that it wasn't really a good deal for the average person. Nonetheless I'm sure there will be some way to at least break even selling pieces of the plane as memorabilia and then using the remaining fuselage as a badass motorhome.

If Elvis was living he’d have a new jet ✈️

If Elvis was still living he would tell you he only owned it for a few months and never saw it in person or ever took a flight in it as he sold it before it was finished being remodeled for him.

@@weing Apparently Elvis didn't put that red interior in it either that was done by the oil exec who owned it after Elvis.

​@@bobbyrayofthefamilysmith24 Elvis loved Black,Red,White and Gold.

It wasn't stored anywhere, it was left to rot in the middle of an airfield completely abandoned and not cared for.

Given that bird and rat poop are extremely corrosive, I'm surprised it didn't fall apart as it set out there in the desert area.
