I can just see Elvis shaking his head & laughing 😂❤ Rest easy Elvis.
I'll be honest, I've never been a believer in the Elvis Jet project, but now I'm starting to see the light a little bit. Still a long way to go, but you have something good going, keep it up!
This is far better than any reality tv show series. This is why I hardly watch tv anymore. 😁
It very similar to the movie Dumb & Dumber.
and tv executives hire CONsulentes to tell them why they are getting their asses kicked by content like this. hahaha!
TV? What's that?🤣
I must admit that when you first brought that bad boy, i questioned your decision. But as the vision eventually came together, I must say that it has not only been highly entertaining, but I'm thrilled you bought it! Best video series, yet Jimmy! And grizzly is the man! Your of course, are a man-child!
Bought, not brought.
@grahameroberts8109 No shit Sherlock! We all make errors. I mean, other than you, hot shot!
I truly hate the algorithm! It has taken taken away my viewing pleasures of Jimmy's world. And I have missed out on so much of the Elvis jet! But being app at this particular time in the day. It happens to pop up with this post which I am going to enjoy watching!
Just go to his channel and see if there are any new videos.
@gordonwelcher9598 true, but I have to much stuff I watch and forget real easy.
Are you "subscribed" to the channel? You can adjust your notification setting to get more/less from the channel. Altho, some of my subscriptions sometimes miss a video release notification.
@davidduganne5939 yes I am. It really has to do with my vast interests. I watch way too much as it it. When I watch and get done, I start scrolling and watch way to much. There is such a thing as to many interests.🤣🤣🤣🤣💯
You're a complicated man to figure out Jimmy.
But you sure are fun.
Keep up the insanity bro, I love your videos.
Jimmy. Holy Moley, it's actually coming together! Go Elvis Jet, GO! I'm going to try and make it to OshKosh to see this beast!
I’d be very shocked if this is ready for Osh. Maybe they’ll trailer it there but that’s the only way it’s getting there.
Thank you for taking this past memory that was connecting to millions. I remember listening to his music. Yes, I cried to some. It's sad that the family did not support you even though they sold it. I pray that they will later. Yes, I know it will bring up mixed emotions. We lost Elvis to soon. I wish someone could have helped him. Ok, continue to bless people. Looking forward to seeing the end result.
Also, I'm so sorry Grizz burned his hand! There should be a DC circuit breaker in the cockpit labeled "AOA HTR" that needs to be pulled.
Ahhh, it’ll be fiiine.
Tis but a flesh wound!
Retired aircraft mechanic here; those AOA vanes can literally burn your skin off similar to touching an electric stove burner. Absolutely no fun!
Burns are no fun i felt that. Sorry dude
Just found Jimmy’s channel. Wow is all I can say. What a journey this man is on…
You been missing out
@@AndyLishiousbeen catching up. This man *also* being happily married is anomalistic we must study!
welcome to the club
It’s odd very very odd
I think this is amazing!
I actually heard someone talk about how mad they where that it’s not preserved in a museum and that you “destroy an important rock n roll gem” when I said “I think it’s an amazing idea, don’t judge him. You don’t have the money to buy it nor are you never gonna see it in “said museum” guys. Atleast it’s going to see more life than just rotting up”. And they actually ended up being on my side and I suggested they check your videos 🤘
Jimmy your the best, and we just love Griz. He's a wholesome guy man, great dude.
'Let's just hook up power and see what turns on'..... classic "It'll be fine. What could possibly go wrong", Lol.
I hadn't thought about it much, but clearly there going to be a lot of things to do to make this a safe and properly functional driving Elvis museum. Cut power to the heaters, rig various controls and sensors so they don't show errors, you need an avionics specialist to manage all that!
So, Jimmy could feel the heat coming off the Attack Angle heater probe just by putting his hand close to it and Grizzly felt the need to actually grab hold of it to check it out. Lesson learned!
This is a great idea! Can't wait to see it all done, inside and out, and driving.
Jimmy is so great to be around. ❤
As Jetstar5224 said, find the CB for that AOA heater and the Pitot Static heater CB's and pull them yes, but also collar them so they cannot be accidentally reset. It is so cool to see the progress on this iconic airplane.
Griz, I feel ya, man. When I was an ignorant newbie on the ramp unloading air freight off a Nomad after it had just taxied in and shut down, I grabbed a heated pitot tube. I won't ever forget that.
There is a level of genius to this because it will have far less drag than a typical RV.
Jimmy, I'm a retired F-111f crew chief 0f 14 yrs. To make your project go quicker, get with a local airport a/p mechanic who can help you with the technical issues of your conversion!! 🎊 lol Ms T Ellis.
Hey Jimmy,
Watch your video(s) almost every afternoon. Mom always said I had one or two loose screws so maybe that’s the attraction. Keep it going! 😂
What An AWESOME Crazy Project to build, I have been Watching your Progress So Cool, Thanks for Sharing with US 👊🏻👍🏻
Maybe someone already mentioned this, but for your door to work, my guess is that the weight-on-wheels switch(es) need to be set. Since you took off the gear, no switches…
Be careful when you pull all of those springs on the back of the battery compartment off. They move quickly. They are also quite strong.
Great to see how it's coming along. Nice cooking too! ITS BIG PIMPIN TO PUT THE PROJECT BATTERY IN THE OG SPOT
Is the black box still in it? That would be kewl to hear the last recordings.
Looking forward to Mrs Jimmys worlds videos showing all these projects in detail from her perspective....
I have to admire this guy's honesty within the first 35 seconds of this clip..
Kudos to you Jimmy for maintaining the Elvis mythology. The plane is significant piece of Americana,. Hope you get to Oshkosh, go on a US tour and end up selling it to be part of the tour at Graceland.
when they pulled the plane into the Graceland parking lot, they were told to get that thing out of there :P
@@JerryDechant😂
Exciting to see progress on the Elvis Jet. I doubted the vision a bit at first, but it looks like reality now. Good work Jimmy and team.
This is so cool!! Can't wait to see it on the road 🙌
Slowly but surely 💯
Get it Jimmy 💯😎
Yeah! Awesome progress guys, this is going to be fun!👍👍 amazing how much still works after cutting the thing in pieces. Take care !
Awesome Build !!! It will be cool to see it driving down the road - what a head turner !!!
I'm praying for your full recovery buddy
Thanks again Jimmy for another Great video. Always love the back and forth between you and Grizzly. Looking forward to future videos.
Jimmy, its no longer the "whatever" voltage it was as an aircraft!
With the exception of the dash panel and so forth, just change everything over to 12 volt and leave the wires.
It don't matter now, its not going to leave the planet anymore.
Otherwise, if not for you, Rebuild Rescue and Outdoor Boys, life has no meaning!
Keep up the great work!
This is one cool project. Nice work gents!
It’s a fine line between madness and brilliance.
To own anything from the king is priceless. Me and my neighbor had all Elvis albums blowing into the neighbor. R.i.p
Forward progress. Always a good feeling
You should find video footage of When it flied, Add some of Elvis footage on the tape and install some small tv screens to hang up in there and play for visitors.
When it flew, but yeah, good ideas!
G’day from DOWNUNDER. You make these videos as entertaining as ever Jimmy. I’m hoping to get to the USA later this year to do parts or ROUTE 66 and go to a few aviation museums and airshows. I’ll need to try to catch up!! By the way, a bushies solution to burns (as long as you don’t break the skin) is to use Vicks VAPOUR RUB liberally on the burnt area!! I’ve proven it many times and carried a jar of Vicks in my flight bag for many years. The shorter the time from the burn to application works best and essentially ALL pain is gone in about 15 minutes. I’ve proven this too many times. Cheers Keith
Excellent troubleshooting!
The chicken looked good, too.
JIMMY
PUT SOME FOLD UP STUBBY WINGS ON THE SIDE OF IT.
Sliding down the battery section is so badass, hope you keep it functional.
I thought by now it would have been mounted on the frame ! That's ok I'll "Standby"At least now we all know the progress report ! Thank You !
I had to replace a rotor and stator in my Onan 5500 Monarch a few years ago. It had a centrifugal short. You made it look quick and easy as you went from uncrate to start up in 2 minutes.but it was a full day, total teardown of the genset for a non pro like me. I was fun though.

Americans consume 8 billion chickens yearly 😮 Your comment is buried at the bottom cause it's not pinned. Maybe that's a good thing.
Good morning from Minnesota! Can't wait to see it in Oshkosh!!
Turning it into a trailer would probably have made more sense.
Definitely get rid of all the incandescent lights that you possibly can and replace them with LEDs. Your current draw will go WAY down while lumens go way up!
Awesome video, Jimmy!
Jimmy, you certainly have an interesting life. ❤
And oh… thanks for the prayer 🙏 over your meal, in Jesus’ Name, Amen!
"I Jet The Elvis Drive" would sound nuts! But I guess "I Drive The Elvis Jet" makes some sense!
Getting awesomely exciting.
✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.
This project is just getting better and better ❤it😊
22:25 when the battery tray lowered it would have been awesome if a pigeon flew out and surprised them!!
Thank ya very much!
So cool that so much works!!! Will you be extending the front frame/bumper out towards the nose? Can't wait to start seeing this thing get hooked up. Should be epic. :)
Poor Grizzly. I have been working on jet fighters my whole grown up life and I never touch a pitot or AOA blade without spitting on it first. It's fun and safe!
I’d just get the lowest rank airman to grab it.
The little fan near the galley is for the auto cabin temperature control.
“Can I Get a Clear Prop?!” Great video as always Jimmy!
What I love bout Jimmys channel is he doesn’t really know what he doing but figuring it out as he goes kinda like any one of us would be doing!🤷🏼🫡🇺🇸
That highway sailboat needs some serious ballast hung low in the frame rails to keep it from heeling over !
Yeah it's gonna fall over, if it ever sees rd time, I'll believe when I see.
It will be cool to see this drive around. Take that big Generator out and install a new smaller more efficient Generator. Big question is should the plane exterior be repainted to look new or leave it as is?
Good progress :D Keep it up! Back to work!
Well done jimmy what a great guy you are❤❤❤
if it was me i would just remove all unneeded cables and stuf just to avoid shorts later in the project
Preflight, all switches in off/safe /normal. Look for the AOA switch set to OFF. planes are robust , once moved F/A 18 with no wings or stabs just hanging landing gear had to stow for transport. for road trip from SC to FL, crazy few hyd caps some power hyd pressure walla came to life.
I would imagine this jet flew into Roswell in perfect condition. Then simply sat and decayed over the decades. I wasn’t that surprised to see all of the creature features working after being powered up.
Should be in a museum.
Jimmy, you're our brother from another mother 😅👍
really would have loved seeing it fly again
Jimmy i used your code for good ranchers, i never buy stuff peddled by youtubers but this is too good to pass up, esp with the discount, thanks, can't wait til my weekly essentials box comes.
love the progress
Getting there .... power .... it,s Alive .... looks good inside with lights .... ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊 ....
I cant wait to see the indicated airspeed come alive on the highway lol =P
Awsome cant wait to watch tonight
I freaking love everything you do
I am a big big elvis fan am sure he would be proud of guys restoring the plane❤❤❤
Elvis barely knew he even owned it. He never flew in this aircraft. Plus it has had 3 to 4 Owners after Elvis died.
Hey Jimmy, as I’ve been in a bunch of jets due to working the ramp at KFPR, I’d think there’d be actual cabin lights other than the reading lights. As you were walking down the inside of the jet, there’s what looks like light strips by your head and those should illuminate if that’s what they are
Jimmy, you're out of you're mind, but I love it!!
Yummm, dry burnt chicken! My favorite! 18:00
Hey Jimmy, sit on the Elvis Throne!
Staight of the art when new .
Right staight now.
Hope you get it fixed up good . be fantastic to see it all done .
Can't say I'm a fan of those cutaways like some storage wars show. Just let it run in real time
Love the RV style wood paneling
The round plug on the battery is called a cannon plug.
That jet was bought for Elvis Presley's dad Vernon and was hardly ever used.
This whole project gives me a cool idea. A C-130H turned into a house.
Excellent Idea and something that been done many times. Old Boeing fueselages .
Honestly I’m kinda sad to see it’ll never fly again. With that said I love the channel. And will just tune into the content I love.
He wanted to get it fly worthy but he did a previous video to get it fly worthy was an insane price
I've been watching the other Elvis plane goin RV videos and I don't remember seeing the part where you guys drove the RV with nothing left on it after destruction except the dash and the seats 😂😂 in an Elvis outfit 🤣, sooo funny. ROFFLMAO what was that experience like? With that diesel engine 20 to 40 feet behind you 😄🤣. Convertible RV 😁. After Grizzly fixed the generator you should have said "Grizzly we have an APU" instead of we have a generator lol. That thing definitely could use a sunroof or 2 lol so it won't be so dark back there in the passenger cabin cuz I prolly wouldn't wanna just change out those bulbs with some new fangled led bulbs lol I'd prolly wanna leave them just as they are as long as they work and even then id prolly try to find a proper replacement if they blew out lol. Great vid as usual 👍 ✌️
You should change the RETURN TOO SEAT sign to RETURN TO SENDER 😁
Jimmy, why didn't you guys cut away the bottom of the fuselage and lower it down over the RV chassis? The center of gravity of that thing is going to be way too high IMO.
Cog shouldn't be an issue as long as he's not going fast all the wheight on the rv frame should be enough, it's gonna look goofy tho I'd do like u said just cause it will look nicer
I think that they want to do it this way so that he can still use the original airplane swing down door.
I'm envisioning a year sometime in the future where the Elvis Jet makes an appearance at the Burning Man Festival and to close out the party it gets driven into the Burning Man for a fire burial.
Your a legend dude ❤
Can’t wait to see the end product online
I don't know if Ron Strauss is still alive, but he flew Elvis the last couple years.....maybe he could help you some way with the buttons & tell you what they are.
The phrase "duck and cover" comes to mind
Lets go i was waiting for this video for along time 😁
Jimmy, first off many would think this idea is crazy. OK I might be one of them, but you are entertaining
