Oh ! You guys definitely need to get this moving under its own power then try it in the water ! This is the kind of things we love ! This project is very cool so please keep going with the next two or more if necessary but don’t stop until it’s even painted, this could be your back woods and swamp search buggy 👍👍👍
Mustie 1s channel rocks also..

Most definitely restore. To get running after only spending $100 is a blessing!
I'd love to see a part 2 to this episode!
I'm especially interested to see how that jet pump works, and whether it actually is usable in the water.
I'd love to see these 3 Genies from the beet bottle actually tell ppl what the hell they R working on... Polaris made the their MUD DUCK we had one on our farm cost $4,000 back in 1973 but it was a twin stick on gunwhale to port and one side of the driver and it sat 6 very comfortably. The back 2 seats had the engine dog house. The engine was a 4cly inline I think it was 4Cyl Ford motor... I could be wrong but it was this bright metallic red color like a boat would be. It was much much larger than that one they have. Ours did have a steel underneath for mounting a transmission and twin props, My dad and uncle talked about it all the time. Ours did run & drive and floated... The sticks turned the wheels was how directional control was made/
My grandfather had one, he owned a car repair shop and junkyard, it was 18 acres of car's back in the 30s through the 70s. I will never forget the time he took me in the water with it, I was around 7 years old. There was a TV show back then called "the banana splits" they had one as well.
Edit: I'm now in my late 60 s. It was a great time to be alive back then. It was called an Artic cat. Git er dun boys.
I say continue now that it will run (that's the hard part) chains are easy to make and the most expense will be tires. Start with 4 (one each corner) if you're nervous about it. These are generally collectable and if it will run and drive and float...you won't take a loss of money and probably make a nice profit if you sell it. Thanks for sharing this one (I'm a small engine guy and restore old and oddball karts and bikes)
Tubes temp
Would love to see y’all riding this thing 🙏🏻....Awesome job so far 👍🏻

They are very fun to operate ,can't wait to see this one completed and moving. 👍
Definitely get it all mechanically functioning. I'd love to see it go with that little jet pump!
The funny thing is, just a week ago I was reading about these vehicles. These are from the the early days and are part of what led to the modern Side by Side. Needs a full clean and restoration, there are countably few left.
Your filming technique is spot on. Nice long shots, non static, close ups, lovely colours and quality. Very professionally done. Well done to you all. You all make an excellent team. As ive said before your reaching out across the world. Your voices and videos are playing in peoples houses across the globe. Thankyou from London. UK. 🎉
No chain here no chain there. Like a long boring bondage movie...
Well, we've all sat and watched it this far so I guess I for one would like to see the project be taken to the next step of making it all work. THEN try to float it. It's a fun project, but probably not a money maker. Sometimes you just have to do a project for fun and to gain knowledge. This could be one of them.
It takes time to fix things it hasn't been run for quite a while I think you're doing a great job like to see them done
I like the way you talk to each other and handle each other. There's no arrogance or trying to be above the other person like there is on a lot of the restoration channels. And you're not trying to be "funny" or special; just getting on with it the best you can.
Appreciate the support, thanks for watching!!
I'm 62, I raced a Attex 6x6 when I was 16. That's a borg wanner trans. If it's low on fluid it takes auto trans fluid. On top on both sides where the cables are is the shifter. Forward and back, middle is neutral. The chain you can get form the farm store. Mine had 50, yours looked like 40. Mine ran 60 mph with a 440 twin. Good luck. 👍
I have a 1974 Attex 6x6 550 supper Chief
@Zach Churchill that's cool. Mine was a 400 twin, then we put the 440 in and moved up a class racing. My first one was Terra Tiger 295cc. All my motors were Rockwell 2 cycles. What's your 550? One guy in the open class had a 850 3 cylinder, it was fast. I raced here in Illinois. If you go on CZcams you can find some racing from Ohio.
So that's too funny that I'm 62 also I watched The Banana Splits two of them were the Scramblers and three of them were a text I watched them a long time ago and that's when I saw the first one and I got lucky and got the Super Chief I still have two more Max also I live Southern California so I use them to duck hunt
@Zach Churchill right now I got a Max that I 50 dollars for. It's all apart, so I got a snowmobile for the motor and a transmission out of Hustler. Going try to put it all together and bring it back to life. It's been nice hearing from someone that knows about them. Right now I have a utv and my wife and girls have 4 wheelers and we go mudding at mud parks. Have a good new year.
@Mustie1 did one of these years ago and retrofitted a different engine. These are well worth the efforts.. looking forward to seeing more of this project 😀
That was cool..i liked that! Something different from the old car stuff..everyone does that. 2 thumbs up!
You gotta get that thing moving /driving.... If only for the Banana Splits memories... 🙏👌
I originally started following Shawn after I saw him in Josh's mud buggy adventure video. Only rule was bring a car turned into a 4x4. And Greta was definitely the most unique ride in the group
Had or should I say? My father was given a terrain tiger 6x6 in the late 60's because the original owner flipped while driving in a terraced cornfield and didn't keep the power up and it slid backwards and he over reacted, punched the gas causing it to flip over landing on both of them breaking her shoulder and his forearm! The centrifugal clutch can be MOFO going up hill underpowered! But it was a hoot in the winter especially after Fox River froze over! Hell we even hunted out of it for pheasant in the test corn the Quaker Oats Company left standing during the winter in N. Barrington at Kelsey Rd & Rt. 14 that tiger could go anywhere! It was badass! Great Find!
Another awesome video guys.cant wait to see the little buggy bouncing around.keep up the fantastic work.take care.GOD bless you all 🙏 John from England
I enjoyed watching this video. It’s fun to watch both of you guys figure out what steps to take next. I would like to see this vehicle drive from lane onto a body of water.
I’m new to the channel and wow I love what you stand for and love to see family work together that is awesome y’all vibe is awesome Wyatt and lance and Christian bring peace to a chaotic world by doing the lords work Thank you for this channel 😊
Anybody remember "The Banana Splits" TV show from the late '60's? Looks like one of those rigs. It was either Drooper or Snorky's rig I'll bet!
That’s where I’ve seen these before.
Yep , That was the earliest tv show I can remember watching in the 1970-s as a little fella, because of those little 6 wheelers, cheers thanks for the memories, will have to CZcams them now 👍🇦🇺
The jet pump makes it worth working on. It looks like fun and someone will buy it from you and properly restore it if you don't want to do it all.. A video or two of getting it driving and swimming would be a good video piece with wide appeal.
Yeah I'd love to see them running
You guys take on the seemingly impossible challenges!
Beautiful boat ! First time to see one like that ! And of course love to see it fully restored again ! Thank you all .
I demo’ed one of these brand new when they first came out. If I remember it had a JLO or a HIRTH single cylinder 2 stroke. It struggled to turn on hard ground and ran very hot.
Walboro carbs were the curse in that generation of engines. You couldn 't possibly expect those okdaxles and rotten chains to turn
I definitely prefer Tillotson carbs
One of my favorite channels, and by far one of my most favorite revivals! Hope to see a series on this one!
Well, I'd like to see it run now that you've got us hooked, but I really like seeing you work on cars, trucks, and tractors. It is always fun to see an engine run again after years of rust though!
Definitely restore at least one of them. They are a all purpose ATV , land and water. Not much ground clearance for serious off road but a pasture down to a pond or creek .
Be awsome to see you guys running around a lake or pond on it
Getter rolling again! See if she floats!
The Hustler was made by the Hustler Corp. out of Jonesborro, Ark. The Jet drive was a factory Option. The engine was a Canadian Curtis wright air cooled . The Tire pressure was 2.5 to 4 lbs and could be patched with slime. The handle on the right side engaged the jet drive. You have most of the parts and rails for the optional wind shield. I really enjuyed mine which was a 1973 model . It worked Great in and out of the water.
Another adventure. That's what we all like. Like one said, for only$100, ide keep going till the end. Never know till you try. ❤️ it. Trucker Ray ✝️ blessings
That's the first one I have seen with a jet pump for water use. Smartest idea anyone could have come up with on one of those things. Go for it. I'm sure you will find lots of leaks... axle shafts etc when you hit the water, but it will be worth it. Those things are worth a lot in running condition if you can even find one. At least that is the case around here.
I have the same CCW engine in my 1969 fox trac snowmobile. Fun video I enjoyed it
I had an ATV back in the 60s/70s. It was called the Scrambler. It was a lot of fun and my kids loved it. The trans went bad, couldn't find parts for it because it was a prototype.. They made many different ones in Elkhart, Indiana, my home town.
This thing deserves a complete restoration. New belts, chains, tires, rust protection on the frame, etc. Maybe even some upgrades.
Hello from hurricane ravaged Sarasota Florida.
There's a bunch of 6x6 laying around down here. Some guys put jet ski engines and pumps in so they could go faster in the water.
I’m hoping to see more on this project nicely done though
🇨🇦
“Especially once you hit the water” i like dad’s optimism
I remember in the mid 60's a show call I think it was Banana-rama not for sure. I remember was like people in dog costumes riding around in those buggies.It was on early Saturday morning kids shows. The buggies were painted Yellow. And on Sunday mornings it was Davey & Goliath, Johnny Quest...THE GOOD OLE DAYS.....BUT NOT ANYMORE.😂🥲
Can't wait to see this progress to the next step! 100.00 was awesome deal..fully restored value $$$
Definitely worth a restore
You guys decide to scrap the build, I'll be glad to finish it. Next time you come to Shanks, bring it. I live shortly down the road. Love watching you and your dad.
Really nice to just watch you working with your Dad. Great projects and successful efforts.
Man you guys are surely not afraid of a challenge, cause this is a big one ... looking forward to a part II
Pleasssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee finish this one! I would love to see the finished product! My future creek fishing ride! Something like this would be a Godsend for a disabled vet like me! The foot levers are the throttle control, the handles are steering.
Looking forward to Part 2 through completion. Getting these running and working again, at least one of 'em would be fun, and probably worth your while. A vehicle like that would work well in many parts of the country, including where I'm at, in the salt marshes of Virginia's Lower Eastern Shore.
Hard to tell from watching a video but that looks like #50 roller chain. You can get it at Purvis in Paris or Mt Pleasant. Just take a piece of the old chain with you and they will be able to match it.
The sprockets should have a part number on them as well. It would be something like 50B13. The first number is the series of chain, B is the hub style and the last number is the number of teeth. If you find the correct series of chain, you can order a roll on Amazon
I absolutely love that slammed GMC school bus! Sooo dope!!
100%! Please get this old gem moving. I remember seeing these running around once and a while when I was a kid!
Yeppers a nother great video guys! I would love to see y'all get this babe back to full send! I hope y'all continue with this swamp buggy! Truly enjoy your family and your videos!!💪😎👊
As a kid from the 70s i remember these big time ,,Was something that the kids from parents who had money would buy ,,was always in love with these ! Great find and u got 2 ! Well kind of ,,lol
Guys everything is not just cars and trucks , working on everything including boats and amphibious craft makes a well-rounded mechanic , that you guys are already there..
now you just sharpening your skills love your channel !!!!

You were absolutely correct when you took the top layer off. The engine and torque converter are the same style as a Snowmobile. (I know, you are in Texas! 😂). I don't recognize that from any old sleds I have seen, but it looks like it is from the sixties. It may be a Sachs? The tire treads are backwards. (I know, getting ahead of myself). Spray the rubber trim with Armour All. It may help soften it up. Just thought I would mention these things while I was thinking of them. The jet drive looks interesting! I can't wait to see how they have that hooked up. I hope you can free everything up, that is a really cool looking machine!
LETS SEE MORE! WOULD LOVE TO WATCH YOU GUYS TAKE THIS PROJECT ALL THE WAY TO COMPLETION.
I would say go for it guys. Have done a awesome job so far runs and sounds great. Buy a roll of chain and make your own for the awesome ride. Love the show and don't miss a episode 👍👍. You guys and gals do a great job.
I actually own a 70's Scrambler, and a late 90's MAX, and plan to pull molds from them both, and repower each of them, and fit them both with trolling motors, but now, I have to tell you, that jet-ski outdrive nozzle has my imagination running on more that direction I have to tell you !!!
"Well now we"ll never know how much fuel is in it!" Great video
Luv this stuff..that's why I love Mustie 1s channel also ,makes my day ..
I really enjoyed this video. I think it would be nice to see you bring this old girl back to life to dance one more time.
These machines are unique and deserved to be restored. The chains are more than likely “standard” motor cycle chain and should be readily available. The tires look similar to the tires Argo equips their machines with. Good luck, maybe the other machine will be restorable as well.
As a kid in the early 70's I saw these on tv and dreamed about having one.
If you have trouble finding chain you might check with with your local John Deere dealer. I used to do lawn mower repair and that’s where we bought our chain. Since they do sale mowers they carried several different sizes of chain. We bought it in bulk and just made it to the size we needed.
Guys all over the world do this stuff. I watch some Russians and Italians. This is great. Finding some crazy relic is just plain cool.
1:20 love that slammed bus behind y'all
I love these Hustler 6X6 ATVS. They’re so darn cute and adorable
Definitely want to see you get this fully functional again!
That is a centrifugal clutch. Here in Maine we cane usually find older snowmobile engines like the one you have. The recoil pull start needs some lube. And you can order a snowmobile belt from eBay.
I would love to see you guys save this one and do a full build on it!! It would be well worth it
Please continue with this project. Would love to this up and running with the jet drive in the water.
You guys are awesome! God Bless!
I am loving the classic juke boxes in the background. I would love to have one of those one of these days.
You really need to take it to the next phase and get that machine back on the road and in the water. Great progress so far but don’t leave us hanging 😁😁
I see a keeper here. Fingers crossed with the transmission. Some fiber glass patch where needed. A Jeff Barron camo paint job with spray paint. You got yourself a fishing platform for running through the wood trails.👍😁
That's A older 2 stroke snowmobile engine on that 6x6 machine y'all got. Soak with transmission fluid for A few days then try turning it over with A breaker bar. With A leverage pipe on the end of it. Back& fourth until it releases on its own guys.
Get er moving !! Love it guys!
Definitely get it rolling. I bet the 2 foot pedels turn the jet left and right same as the handle bars do for on land. Can't wait to see the next video.
Definitely keep going to a fuller Restore! Replace the chains and tires. You haven't spent anything yet beyond the initial $100! Very fun project!👍👍👍
Hope you guys keep on working on the ATV'S. To see it going in the yard.
Definitely rebuild rebuild rebuild yes rebuild those things are freaking awesome I wish I could find one and get one together myself
Definitely try to get this thing running.
Nice work! What seemed a rusted together basket case was slowly trimmed down one issue at a time. You guys went much further into the restoration in one episode than I figured you could without a lot of replacement parts. Tube the tires - chains, bearings and seals next!
Please restore this beautiful machine there’s a lot of potential in the ol girl!! Loving the content guys keep up the great work ❤
❤always thought these would be fun in the snow and I would have liked to gone across water but just short distance rivers, ponds, nothing bigger!
Love to see it running and what it will do in the water
RESTORE! RESTORE! RESTORE! Please! Those would be some great videos! Entertaining AND informative!
I think you will have to get floating with these. Just image Christian at the front with her camera! Very good when you've got it all set up!. Thanks guys...Cheers from the UK.
Yes you definitely need to get it running and driving.
Keep going on this guys they would be great in the summer.
I like small engine stuff especially, something unique like this. I know its a bunch of money but I would like to see it run/move again.
I've got a couple of Hustlers but don't have the jet pump on either. I have a standard model and a 980 hi tub, both are later models with poly bodies. I also have an Attex, a few Cushman Tracksters, Surtrek and a couple Catagators. You've got a CCW 2 stroke and a t-20 transmission. I'd swap out the engine with a 4 stroke. Parts for the CCW are hard to find, if at all. Parts for the t-20 are still available or should I say, easier to find. Good project and a $100.00... That's a great price! You definitely need to finish this project.
I'm looking forward to you guys moving ahead with this project. I think the "fun factor" will be fairly high with these ATVs - and once the first one is running and moving, the second one may be easier to work on.
Another Masterpiece! NEXT!?!?!
What's up guys I haven't watched you for a while but I found you again that's six wheeler those were lots of fun I had one for many many years did not like that two-stroke engine you had to wind it out a lot it was a 38 horsepower two-stroke chaparral snowmobile engine it looked just like yours chains broke all the time bearings went out but when it was working good it was fun very high maintenance vehicle got to work on it all the time carry chain and the chain break with you if you go deep in the woods was lots of fun sold it probably 20 years ago it was nice to see you one again and see it working I really enjoy you guys you're lucky you get to work with your father those are the good old days and they'll be gone someday I'm 60 years old my father's been dead since I was 32 so it's been over for a long time but my autistic son work side by side with me we still work on lawn mowers and small things like that all the time your friend from Indiana Dave
Get this going! Nothing more fun than a all tarain vehicle
Cool project! Also like seeing those 2 Rowe R93's in your shop. Brings back lots of memories for this jukebox guy
