- If there has been one car in the Roadkill fleet that absolutely never fails to fail, it’s the 1971 Datsun 240z rust bucket known as the Rotsun. From the beginning, the Rotsun has let Freiburger and Finnegan down over and over, whether it be at autocross events, drag races, shootouts, or even 24 Hours of Lemons. However, it’s the one car the guys can never quite give up on even though it’s fulling deserving of desertion. Over the years it’s had a variation of power plants, it’s latest being a junkyard turbocharged 5.0 Liter V8 pulled from a fox body Mustang. Now on this episode of Roadkill, Freiburger and Finnegan attempt to get the Rotsun back up and running after years of neglect, by finally fixing its independent rear suspension issues and attempting to drive it to SEMA. Will the Rotsun fail to fail? Will it break more axles or will the axles break the guys?

Motortrend must have finally figured out no one wants to use their streaming service. This is legitimately the first full episode of Roadkill I've seen since they left CZcams.
Same.
Also, I love your username.
This is an old episode, they still have 2 more seasons than this.
They haven’t changed.
same
This is advertising the show for the streaming service
well it's also youtube fault the moment roadkill quit youtube,
i remember both host was very irritated at youtube policies
Oh snap. They put some roadkill on CZcams
I just remembered about them like 10 minutes ago and saw they posted this
Full episodes are returning to CZcams
@@TAwallisch Looks like it
Penance for canceling Dirt Every Day?
Maybe the O G fans that made roadkill can enjoy it again! Doubt the sell outs! Just PR for whatever event in Vegas that no one cares about! Doubt 9 tries on axle shafts unless both you guys have smoked yourselves retarted in the last couple years! And speaking of smoking retarted with the BS oiling issue! Sad that I used to enjoy Roadkill and now Im criticizing the garbage content that I couldn't get more of!
Brings me back to the old days watching you guys in CZcams
Same here I missed seeing them on here for a long time this show is how I got into cars and replicating them in forza horizon five.
Facts bro miss these guys best show ever love these two lol 😂
Yea
the good days
The Motor Trend channel is finally back to its roots!
playing old shows on youtube.
🤔
I dont care if there a season behind but the fight on youtube is just like the fight of the rotson.
There we go motortrend, its all anybody ever wanted, good job on this one but make sure to keep them coming though.
Fax
Wont happen
right haven't seen one episode since the paywall.
i know right, this is the first road kill episode i have watched since they put all their roadkill stuff on their paid website.
Yup. It was a bit of an insult that they also removed all old episodes from yt. I hope they reupload them again
Welcome back boys.
Missed Roadkill when Motortrend decided to flip off everyone outside the US.
Hope to be able to watch more adventures in the future.
me who is american but didnt have the money
so i assume i dont count? ooorrrrrr?
cause i'd rather loose a kidney and my left nut befor i pay up, theres other shows on youtube that i can watch that are just as good.
@@djaydeved share that information with us. Dont be afraid
Oh, don't worry, they flipped us Americans off too. We have to pay for it if we want to see it.
Yes, I was more than happy to pay for Roadkill, but nope...
Old or not, I hope this isn't the last full episode on CZcams.
Finally a good episode. Free roadkill on CZcams ftw
Yes! Thanks guys, since there's no motortrend services in Australia anymore it's been so difficult to enjoy and support your fine content. This is definitely a step in the right direction.
@@Justin5ot5rrwbb6p5wr2 ofc you can, but why the f*** you need to do that? what kind of politic is that, when show CAN'T be shown outside USA? Like... then all these clips should be removed too. I would love to get explanation from MTOD. And VPN costs money too. I would rather invest it straight to MTOD.
Same in México, good thing they came back to CZcams 🤟
Same here in the UK.
Same for South Africa. Tried subscribing and willing to pay even with a terrible rate of exchange but not available.
Bought a $300 240z to build for my wife on my channel if anyone is interested!!
Finally, I can't get motor trend on demand here in New Zealand, I wish they would start putting the older episode's on CZcams
Some of them have been made public again
It annoys me too, don't worry lol
I didn't realise how many of them were just straight removed from youtube.
The f150 wheelie car was so good
I CAN FINALLY WATCH SOME ROADKILL AGAIN IN AUSTRALIA, LET'S GO!!
They should get with the real vehicle kings of Utube who never sold out MIGHTY CAR MODS!
I like Australia
@@mattcrain6893 They did a collaboration with mighty car mods already a few years ago man!
@@LVUFC and it was pretty sweet. love the impala.
Remember when Motortrend launched their app and we could just wait a month to see the new episodes? Good times
I am a total fanatic of the old Z cars, having owned about 20 of them over the years. Every time I see the Rotsun come up I get excited to see what is to come next for the rusty old thing. It's impressive that it's still relatively in one piece with the power that's been thrown at it.
How many of them were rusted out? I love the 240z as well. I quite frankly like all of the Zs.
I get it. I'm not even much an import guy but man do i love that car
@@jacobrzeszewski6527 Bought a $300 240z to build for my wife on my channel if anyone your interested!!
@@freemansgarage Bought a $300 240z to build for my wife on my channel if anyone is interested!!
Zs are great. I love the real ones and tbh, I even still like the 350s and 370s..
It's great to be able to see the evolution of this car again since I lost track of it when the show left youtube.
Thanks Motor Trend... For Finally remembering that there are Tons of Fans outside of the USA who have missed Roadkill and and the other Roadkill family .. Please we need MORE, More, More....
Roadkill is one of the best things ever produced on CZcams. Nice to see a return to form. Mike and Dave are the quintessential dynamic duo.
Awesome, a full episode from roadkill!
This was absolutely my favorite episode behind Stubby Bob.
MotorTrend Channel please do more of this, it's awesome if even older episodes to finally see these on CZcams again. All these types of shows need to pop up here. Thanks for popping this one up
Rotsun is such a fighter, even though it tends to fail, it just keeps going again. Thank You Motor Trend for putting this episode of Roadkill on CZcams to be able to watch it.
Except it's just to promote the Vegas thing!
Finally i can watch this masterpiece program from Brazil , i miss motortrend on demand because "ITS NOT AVAILABLE ON MY AREA ANYMORE", learned alot of tips from you guys, even my poor knowledged on another language raised a bit wathching you, the best gearhead show i've seen on internet
Thank you MT for bringing back shows on YT Especially a Rotsun! Ep. My favorite RK car
I don’t think I’ve laughed at a CZcams video so much as this one. I admire your push foreword spirit!
as a non american i can finally watch roadkill again, YAY - keep it that way!
Thanks guys! Can’t watch motortrend in the UK anymore so this is brilliant
Love the Rotsun!!! One of my favorite Roadkill cars!
Thank you for putting up a full episode for once and one of the greatest cars still going strong!!
FINALLY. Motortrend listens to it's viewers
Finnegan is a walking encyclopedia of cars
Frieburgers episode recaps are my favorite. As he describes it u can see the cars progression, the story of owning a hot rod, and working on it with your friends.
Well this was an amazing surprise. Glad to see these two boys back on YT
Roadkill is the main reason I was subscribed in the first place then they stopped doing CZcams. Glad to see they're putting some of the old episodes are coming back
The Men, The Myths, The Legends,
Finally return to CZcams!!!
Salute, Gentlemen🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸
The real kings Mighty Car Mods never left!
Been so long I can't even remember if this episode was available as a freebie on Motortrend
I remember when motortrend was one of the best car youtube channel. Lots of cool series..roadkill, head2head, dirteveryday, ignition etc..Really miss those days
Garage Squad
No matter how often it fails the rotsun is still my 3rd favorite roadkill car
Thank you thank you thank you, I've been reading articles by David since waaayyyyy back(in hot rod and car craft, 4 wheel and off-road.....I read em all) and mike Finnegan worked for street truck magazine when I was into mini trucks, been missing your shenanigans on CZcams for some time. Glad they are back!
This is just what I needed to pass the time at work. Thanks for putting more episodes on CZcams again.
Hello dear
Man must’ve been a fun road trip in that c10!
I miss watching road kill on CZcams,
Such a quality production,
Hi from Australia
Yeah! I’ve been watching roadkill since the early days! Love to see it back!
Thank you MT for giving us this episode! Please share us more 🙏
This brings me back. I miss roadkill being on CZcams
cant believe its back on CZcams, literally my childhood right here
This episode is by far the most awesome, entertaining, and 150% pure ROADKILL satisfaction. This is the exact type of episode that made me fall in love with the show soo many years ago. It's been a long time since I've been soo thoroughly entertained I have watched the episode 4 times now. Thank you very much for this amazing episode and PLEASE keep em coming. Everyone keep yourselves and love ones safe and healthy and remember to SMILE 😃 😊
Looking forward to more full roadkill episodes again
Hooray! Rotsun, desert donuts, a burnout, and Swingers quotes; what a treat! The only drawback: 47 Hertz commercials. Well worth it for Roadkill!
First time I've watched roadkill in like 7 years is the first time they release a free episode
I love watching the continuing work yallz do on these cars!
Nice one! I’ve always been a big fan of this car.
For me it does wonders for my mental health to see other people fight the same issues I run into regularly when I work on my vehicles. Thanks Road Kill. 👍
Glad to see roadkill back on CZcams. LOVE THE ROTSON! give that baby the parts she needs to be reliable please
THEYRE BACK ON CZcams, WHAT IS THIS
Hey MTOD,feeling the burn yet? Episodes of roadkill back on CZcams,must have hurt when you shut the world out,now you're doing this,put more out,if you're game
"what he's trying to say, is this axle is also too long." thats roadkill, baby! 😆
Yes!!!! Thank you for releasing a new episode of roadkill! Loved watching religiously years ago.
Man, Motortrend... Please get your act together and bring Roadkill back for us Europeans! I absolutely miss the carnage!
He said its been two years since he has thought about the might Rotsun. Its been two years since Ive watched MotorTrend. Keep up with the long format videos and i will stick around once again.
I love when it’s such a problem that you guys get the giggles. Cracks me up
Motor trend: here you go, first one's free.
Us: yeah we want more!
MT: oooh, that's gonna cost ya.
You guys have no idea how much happiness it brings to a chum from India, just to see Finnegan and Freiburger do a show together. Keep going guys, we love you on the other side of the planet too.
It's the laughter and giggling that makes it work 🤡❤️🤣
PLEASE BRING ROADKILL BACK TO CZcams. I only watch this show, so not worth paying for MotorTrend, but will gladly support here.
I even paid for motor trend just to watch roadkill and I could not find it on there in full. I canceled my subscription sed that I could not watch roadkill anymore. Thank you for the new episode!!🎉
Thanks for full episodes again!
Oh man, brings back why I used to love this show.😁
Nothing healthier for the lungs than belly laughing while surrounded by dust 😂
Had forgotten about Roadkill. Good to see it still exists.
This is brilliant.!!!! It's all back at last, the laughter the joy and the excitement. ;) Best show LOVE IT.!
I'd have one of those in a heartbeat, if I had the money. Have to get it's electrics uprated from 110v to 240v but it's tons of fun and highly usable.👍🏻
*Favorite Roadkill build by far haha, S30 Z rules*
This episode was like the good old roadkill where engines got swapped in parking lots... Loved it
I want to see the Cooling system fixed next I love the rust bucket.
I can’t get motortrend in Australia so it’s good to see roadkill on CZcams again!
MotorTrend finally listened, please put all roadkill eps on CZcams!
2019, let that sink in before praising Motortrend....
I love when projects reach that point where it's so f'd, and you're so tired, you're just laughing really for no reason.
they almost sit on each other's legs testing the suspension 😀😀 love this show😀😀
My God that 67 c10 is money. Beautiful beautiful beautiful truck.
Thank you MotorTrend, from the Czech Republic
Glad to see you back on YT and especially with the Rotsun. It also brought back bad memories of the dreaded spindle pin removal, been down that road many times before.
I love your positive reactions to the problems that arise showing what it takes to not get discouraged how to use your own ideas how parts can be modified to fit your needs and certain parts that is cuz sometimes you need to stop trying to go back to the drawing board and think outside the box great episode
Love the pure junk you throw together and make GREAT, kind of , well most of the time . OK sometimes. But love what you do. Rustang, RotSun, Stubby Bob and that Crusher Impala , I hope they never go away. Favorite is still the General Mayhem. Thank you
Oh man what a blast from the past remember when this car was first posted. So happy roadkill is back!
Love watching you videos . And love seeing the process on your Malibu. And thank you for doing a video about carburetor tuning.that helped me out a lot.
OMG it has been years and out of nowhere I get this recommended...
Welcome back, I love you guys and the Rotsun ! 🤩
No motortrend option here in Ireland. Great to see a full episode after so long.
Motortrend took away the best show on youtube from us , Finally there back please put all the episodes back in a list we've missed alot
Roadkill? CZcams? OH SNAP!
I remember seeing one of the trucks at a gas station in Camarillo outside the Airport - super sick rides!
YES! The OG Roadkill videos is the reason why I bought a 78 280z years ago for $800 that I borrowed from my mom, which was basically as rusty as ol Rotsun but didn't run. I was too young and wasn't financially capable of starting a project so I sold it a year later. Seeing a full video appear of the rotsun gave me a boost of serotonin and brought back good memories of old Roadkill videos and my first "project" car. Also can we bring back the full episodes to CZcams?????
"You're so money baby!" I just saw that movie a couple days ago. Can't even remember the name. Glad I got the reference.
This whole series should be called love from the ground up. Bucket of rust becomes the pot of gold
I used to have a motor trend subscription just to watch roadkill. But now I’m broker then a dodge transmission! So is it’s great to see roadkill on CZcams again
Finnegan welding next to the fuel tank brings me back to the time I was stood under a car with a snow shovel deflecting sparks away from the fuel tank while my buddy was welding something that broke shortly after
I havent been able to watch anything MTOD related since you guys left UK.I cannot believe its on CZcams again.Thank you so so much
YES!! ROADKILL back on youtube!!!!! THANK YOU
Yes! Thank you motor trend, I have missed these guys so much!
I love the Rotsun, it’s how I found this channel when you guys first got it. Missed roadkill shame you guys hide it behind a paywall but very nice episode
Love this show so much. Swapping motors in parking lots is entertaining.
this show makes views , i never watched anything but roadkill on this channel
It's back! I love this show! So happy to see it's back on CZcams :)
