Audio was hard on this one, fighting a big room with echoes. But as always don’t forget to like comment and subscribe so we can afford a real studio!

We're here for the content, Coop! Thanks for putting these together.

I am convinced Garrett has added years to Sams life and Sam has added so many fans and knowledge to Mcfarland racing

You see Sam at world cup ? Last day, end of the night finals.. He and Zach were running after Leroy burnouts and pulling in the beams to and back after they take the American flags out.. Sam was running up and back all night, and all day.. Not the slightest sign of tiring, or aches or pains...

Knowledge? He barely speaks at all

@derekspringer6448 3 месяца назад

@@danerasmussen6468Excuse me? That almost sounds like an insult pointed at Mr. Sam. Now I know you wouldn't be so stupid as to think that an almost 79 year old man, hanging out darn near always, ISN'T over there popping off knowledgeable tips and advice like it's his gaht damn job. You'd have to be trying not to learn something! I learn something incredibly useful from Sam, even in videos where he doesn't day a word. One look, you just know.

@jesseshort8 Год назад

There definitely needs to be a pt. 2 and maybe a pt. 3 with Sam. I could listen to him talk for days!

@triplehfarmsllc7348 Год назад

Yeah Sam is the grandparent everyone dreams they could have! The man had tons of knowledge. My grandpa’s knew a ton but they are dead and gone now and I have was old enough to enjoy the knowledge they had being they both was gone before I turn 9 I do remember car shows and my dads dad working on cars but that’s about it! But they was in Sam’s generation my dads grandpa was a big cat nut and he probably tough me something same as my dad did on working in them and collecting cars and old tools a oil cans but moms side showed me how to box and the reason I became a golden glove boxer when I was 17 because I kept after it when he passed away and then military for 10 years 2 of those was a contractor until I was injured and got my tbi medically retiring me! But not I enjoy Muay Thai and Jiu Jitusu and have been passionate about both for 20 years now! Sorry for the long comment. Memory lane of everything I still can remember!

Good job Coop! This is what I would call a cattle dog kind of interview. You sit back, and let Sam stroll down memory lane, and just act like a bumper to keep him steered in the right direction without slowing him down.

I’m so glad you did this with Sam. Everyone’s favorite grandpa! So much wisdom out of this man and so humble in his knowledge. I’m glad he’s getting the spotlight. Tell him he needs to write his book!!! Thanks Coop! btw, audio is pretty good thru an iPhone.

I had the honor of meeting Sam at import vs domestic, my bf watches cleetus videos and I don't know why but I fell in love with Sam and who he is and his passion and love for cars. Sam really has such a bright kind soul, and being able to speak with him that day was so awesome and I'll never forget it. I'm your biggest fan Sam!!

@Julian-mm7mi Год назад

Had the opportunity to meet Sam at TX2K and just asking him about his products lead to a 10 minute conversation of unforgettable knowledge and passion for his work that this man has. Treated me like a friend after seconds of me meeting him, I’ll never forget that!!

@quickdeuce Год назад

Sam mentioned he still has many of his original set of tools,, I'm 75 and still have and use tools from my original set of Craftsman I bought for $149.00 in 1968. Good tools are lifetime investment and they'll usually give you good service if you take care of them. Thanks to Cleetus, Sam has become and continues to be legendary and we're so happy he's a part of the Freedom Factory Team. Rock on and stay healthy Sam,, we're counting on you being around for a very long time to come.

@SirVic42 Год назад

Loved hearing Sam talk about being a USAF mechanic, and how serious the job is. Not only is the pilot placing his life in your hands, but also his family's future. Training pilots is a major investment for the Pentagon, so they are a valuable resource to be protected. Making sure bolts are torqued to spec isn't an option, it's life or death.

@Life.Driven Год назад

This is BY FAR my favorite episode you’ve done Coop! Mr.Sam is an American Living Legend!!! So much wisdom, His stories are the epitome of what America was… stories of what a real America should be! It’s very important we document stories of the people like him they’re getting very far and few between because pretty soon here it will just be that, stories… it’s so awesome that he’s been able to live the many lives he has within his lifetime! Mr.Sam, your truly an American hero! Hopefully one day I’ll get to meet ya at one of these events…. It would truly be a pleasure and special moment I’m sure! Thanks Cooper, really enjoyed listening to this one! Keep up all the awesome work brotha!

I lit up like a Christmas tree when he started talking about the 442. My father passed down a '65 442 to me when he passed, and it's an honor to be able to own a piece of American history. Hearing Sam talk just reminds me what America is supposed to be about. No B.S. no negative talk, no nonsense. Just good old-fashioned conversation about your life, passion, and what you've learned. We gotta have a PT.2!!!

@jacobz927 Год назад

I've been looking forward to this one. Thank you Coop for letting Sam just tell his stories uninterrupted. History told from his perspective/time is rare to find in this form. The take away from this is: Ask questions to your elders, they almost always have an interesting story or three to tell. As a 32 year old with no grandparents alive, I really wish I had been more inquisitive when I had the chance.

@jjansen987 Год назад

I just finished watching the video and this is the first one I saw from Bogetti Studios. You absolutely knocked it out of the park. I loved seeing Sam and hearing his stories. Sam is probably about 10 years older than I am but I remember a lot of the same things just not quite as early. We grew up in a great time and got to see some amazing things happen. I’ll always be grateful that I grew up during these times. I’d love to chat with Sam sometime. We would have a lot in common. He’s a great guy and I can relate to his experiences. Thanks for the videos. I look forward to seeing more. You are all a great bunch of people and are very blessed to experience what you’re doing. Thank you.

Love Mr. Sam. "The Uncle Sam" of the racing community. Love the history, as my dad was a mechanic and street draged a 55 chevy and beat the new corvetts , he bought a 63 impalla convertable and my mom eventually traded it for a ' 74 , 260 z . boy was dad mad. But i was pretty cool going to the local dairy in it.

@leejones4757 Год назад

Every word Mr Sam speaks had me reminiscing to conversations with my Dad. He was a rocker in the UK in the 50's, riding a 650 BSA Rocket. We've built cars n bikes over the years and now my daughter, of 18, has joined the family need to get oilly. My Dad, 84, has just taught her to change brake pads. I watched in awe and felt such love and pride. The 'old skool' boys may not know the plug in stuff but they kick ass on mechanics!

@fishoconnor108 Год назад

The most important thing I took from this, was right at the beginning. Sam said it and I believe it, this field has a competitive attitude but then he helps her and she helps them and they help everyone else. "Being #1" is not as important as "being there", for someone else. You see it time and again in pretty much every video and every channel. Humbling man.

@69Dartman Год назад

Man Sam has so many awesome stories from life. My first two vehicles were a 42 GPW Jeep, then a 41 military 1/2 ton closed cab Dodge pickup with a Braden mu2 winch. It was still a newer flathead 6, push button floor starter, and 6 volt electric. I pulled a small fir tree out of the ground root ball and all when I sunk to the axle in the trees in the back yard. Truck didn't move then the tree sorta jumped out of the ground and almost fell on the truck. I sold the Jeep to buy the Power Wagon, then sold that to buy my Dart I still have. I didn't have a license yet either when I bought the military vehicles and finally got my license in the Dart. I got the Dart in 79 with 63k on it and a 383gts nose on it but it was a original 318 car and the nose was replaced after a minor crash early in its life. I did a lot of bolt ons and tweaks and upgrades to that car😎

God said hey lets invent the nicest human we can ........ Then he made Sam. I met him at Bristol with my wife . I asked if we could get his picture he took one with My wife .The next thing he said was wait don't you want one of the three of us. Next thing you know he grabs someone out of the motion merch trailer to take our picture. He had to spend 10 Minutes just talking to us asking where we were from . This is just a good man . Cooper I can't tell you how much I enjoy this series and I pray it gets the views because I look forward to it every week

@DonaldHancock1653 Год назад

Hearing them talk about Smokey Yunick brought back a lot of memories for me. I worked at McLaren Engines in Livonia Michigan back in the 80's. I mostly ran engine development testing for GM and one project that I got to work on was a Smokey Yunick hot vapor engine. It was a GM 4 cylinder with Smokies hot vapor setup on it, I believe it was 1986 or 1987, so long ago it can't remember exactly. Without a doubt McLaren was one of the best jobs I have ever had, so many interesting projects and great people. Anyway, I am loving hearing Sam talk about his life experiences.
