In episode 119 I introduced you to my Caddy, which I bought to turn into a drag race and landspeed car. The goal is to run 8s in the 1/4 mile and 200 mph in a standing mile event while still cruising this luxurious behemoth on the street. In today's video, we completely strip the '61 down to a bare shell and then anger Kar Kulture Karens everywhere by cutting out the rust-free floors and trunk to make room for a new mandrel bent chassis. It's gonna be an awesome project car thanks to the dudes at MRC Fabrication in Kendersville, North Carolina. This shop specializes in off-the-deep-end builds and can custom build a chassis for nearly anything. Visit the shop's instagram profile ( MRCFABBULLARD ) for more photos of the build and all the other stuff they have created.

😭 noooooo! You can't cut up an old car! Some old dude could have let it sit in his garage until he died where no one could see it or know about it or enjoy it! 😭

Quick question: I'm new to this channel and I'm wondering if you do stuff to your cars yourself. This episode makes it seem like you don't, so was just wondering

This reminds me of building my first ever build of my 61 caddy 4 door on bags. It was a badass ass boat until some drunk driver hit it parked in front of the house. It was completely laid out and when it got hit it moved 18ft and completely totaled it out. I miss that car bad

craig streetzel 2 kuukautta sitten

just look at the guys who are currently working on a new ctsv and cutting it up and it doesn't have a hundred miles on it yet and they have already pulled the motor and it is now sitting on tube chassis anyone can buy a car but cutting one up is how you serperate the builders and the guys who can bolt on something even if it is on the wrong way and upside down 😂 built not bought 💯

I mean at least protect the door panels, they look mint. Btw Iactually shed a tear when they started cutting up the floorpan but needs must I guess.

It's your car, you should be able to do what you want with it. Cut it up and make it awesome. I hate it when people tell me what i should or shouldn't do because they think something different than what i do. Your Ideas are your own and every custom car is unique and awesome. I wouldn't care if it was worth $5 or $5,000,000.

Guy F 3 kuukautta sitten

Just seen your other video man and glad you followed your heart man. My pops passed recently to man I know it sucks but know he wants you get this car done. My pops gave me his truck and I’m fixing it now and have no idea what Im doing but FIplace is helping me lol. Cool video man can’t wait to see you open up. Really uplifting brotha, truly.

Should have used my Thunderbird. Nature already removed the floor pans so you wouldn't have to cut them.

skuz34 3 kuukautta sitten

i never feel bad about a car older then the 90's getting cut up, the lack of technology from back in those days the chassis are all so shit especially for modern day power and comfort, all old cars are better drivers after they get a new frame put in so i say cut em all up FUCK PURITY make it fast and fun and safe

Why? Just... WHY??? It's one thing to salvage a rust bucket body and turn it into something, but taking a rust-free classic that could be restored to better-than-stock and doing, well, THAT to it? All so you can set a couple of "numbers? I hope some little old lady scolds you.

As I saw the Cadillac being cut up, I thought of that meme where the cat says "No no no no no". Apparently that's how my brain works now;)

Geoff Sides 3 kuukautta sitten

I have VERY mixed feelings about the "cutting up" of this car so far. I Can only hope that it retains its factory look and style and just performs to today's standards. That would be the best of both worlds.

Wreckerboy 3 kuukautta sitten

So you’re replacing the chassis with a custom fabricated piece, and you’re replacing the engine with something else. You’re not going 200 MPH in Cadillac, you’re going 200 MPH in a Cadillac *body*. This thing will be no more a Caddy than a FC is a Camaro.
