- Freiburger and Dulcich rescue a flat-fender 1952 CJ-3A Jeep with a small-block Chevy that looks like it's sat at the bottom of the ocean. Dulcich found the Jeep in a yard, and after years of neglect, the guys are making it run and drive the only way they know how.

You see this Jeep in a junkyard. How do you react?
-No chance this runs
-I could fix it
No chance
I could fix it
Back on tha road in a month, pass tha gaffa tape n hold my beer👍
Both and then get kicked out by the wife cause you spent holyday's money on a MINT piece of junk.
I really wish they would come back to CZcams and put full videos back out
Dirt Every Day needs to be brought back
Don’t be cheap. Pay the $4 so they can continue making the vids that we love.
They would.make more money. Motor trends decision to move the videos was purely a management bonus play. I love David and Mike. Truly the next duo to the car gods. Notor trend is the worse thing that could of happened. They would of blown up so hard when all the other shows did. Stupid managers. Always the board and managers
@@guffinator70it's not 4 dollars. It's 20 a month now. 4 was the introductory offer when it first started.
Friedburger sold out to the man.
Dulcich is a joy to watch. Old-timey, hippy-farmer, genius-mechanic, wry-humorist and good pal. What is not to love?
In the beginning you could tell David didn't have much patience for him, I know they go way way back, even then on an introductory episode David admitted when he first met Steve he was immediately annoyed.
Apparently, David was on the phone. Steve came into his office and sat down and picked up a model car on his desk. I'm glad they are still working together and turning out good entertainment.
Well said!
Yep, best character of the bunch.
David still acts annoyed by him but it's good chemistry and Steve is a treasure. @@fluffpantss
From the waist up, Artic Tundra. From the waist down, So Cal. Hilarious.
The fact David still has all his toes amazes me
I've always thought JEEP was an acronym for Just Enough Essential Parts because back in the day that's all there was to it.
It's always fun watching Dave just get adorably hyped about old Jeeps.
That thing is absolutely awesome as is. The glitter in the switches is where the magic comes from.
This Jeep is PERFECT just the way it is. Very cool.
It's always fun watching Dave just get adorably hyped about old Jeeps.. This Jeep is PERFECT just the way it is. Very cool..
Patch em up and keep em as original as possible 👌
It would be awesome to have these guys doing roadkill again on utube fulltime .
Still enjoyed this episode tho 🤘
Watching the entire video, all I could think about was that it was obviously very cold judging by the sweatshirts and heavy coats. But, shorts and flip flops?? Well at least you get points for getting it running. First time watching Road Kill. Will I watch more?? Probably
😂 didn't notice the shorts/flops combo. Good spot LOL
I like the , get it running & driving philosophy 💯
I agree with Freiburger about the name origin of Jeep. The first mention of it being called a Jeep was by Irving Red Hausmann when a representative of the Washington Daily News, in a February 20th 1941 article (same article that published the famous photo of the Willys being driven up the capital steps), journalist Katherine Hillyer asked Hausmann "what do you call it?" His response was "it's a Jeep". Hausmann also added that the Jeep name was an internal name at Willys-Overland coming from the Popeye cartoon charecter Eugene the Jeep. Ford didn't get the GPW contract and start building the "Jeep" until October 1941 so that puts the Jeep name coming from Ford out of question. Officially the vehicle was called a "Quad" at WO during development.
Frieburger my grandfather was a ww2 vet d day +4 he went from Normandy to Berlin with a stop at the bulge and he said the jeep was their life line and without it millions of lives would be lost and he said they called it a jeep because of the cartoon character he never said anything about gpw I think that was the brass wanting to take credit for something the enlisted men invented.
Anyone else notice the flex at 11:46 Maybe optical illusion. Great Geep
Looks like an approved 'workshop bandage' on Dulcich's wrist halfway through: Masking tape (and if you're fancy) paper shop towel.
I've said it before and I'll say it again it never ceases to amaze me seemingly no matter how long these old rigs sit with a little TLC the come right back around. Very Cool 👍👍👍
Simple and basic mechanics, once you understand the fundamentals, line them all up and watch it fly.
If they are sitting with old gasoline its usually fine, its the new ethanol gas that'll ruin stuff from what i've seen, lines, tanks ect,ect
It's so cool to see vintage on the road. (or off) 👍
There's nothing better than wrenching on your vehicle with OSHA approved flip flops!! 😂😂
I've always enjoyed these 2 guys! Thanks for another great video!!
did you put the 8065 in mikebrown8065?
I still remember driving past the Brew 102 plant when I was a kid. Grew up in Tustin, CA and went to military school in San Marino, CA. BTW the same school the Smothers Brothers went to.
Those early flat fenders had an 80 in. wheelbase. In comparison, the Wrangler 2 door has a 94. Those flatties were tiny!
Rick pewe would love it!
I enjoyed this so much I had to watch it clear through twice and then go back to certain parts to check out about the "Jeep" character...looked him up up on Wikipedia...interesting story...and then go back and look at Steve's banded right hand and left wrist...Great Video...this might be my favorite Dulcich/Freiburger video...
You're darn Skippy it'll run. It has a Small Block Chevy in it!!! Fuel, Spark, and a functional Starter is ALL it will take. WORD-
How can you not love that bumper on an off road or that bumper is awesome
This is the coolest jeep I think ive ever seen
I hope we see more of this jeep in the future
Love that jeep. Total mad max vibes
Freiberger with his flip flops in the winter,...what a true Californian!!
Id prefer brakes over seatbelts as 1st choice
I’d love to see more of this jeep! How do you deal with vapor lock? Where is your battery? Does the overdrive work? Can you show the locker install?
You 2 make me lamo everytime , good job road killers !
Loved seeing you guys in riverton wyoming a few weeks back!! Keep up the good work
Great episode, by the way I would describe your look as “donation bin raiders” !
I love the bumpers.
I love the work you guys put OUT
*Can we take a moment to appreciate how much work he puts into these videos for us 😍*
Who?
😅😢😢😂😂😮
shut up
I see this comment on literally every CZcams video.
That's a lot of monents...
Dulcich, Friend visit a Barber, your on T V, Steve! Thanks for the content!
These guys have fun with the nastiest projects. We should all find that much enjoyment...
4:34 oh noooo the adjustable wrench haha. Love the Jeep though, I'd run it just like that. looks awesome
lol they changed the oil and installed a drive shaft.. Exciting stuff here folks.
Freiburger shows up and tells Steve what they're going to do with STEVE'S jeep lol this guy's ego sometimes
JEEP Just Enough Extra Parts😂
Wish they’d bring it back to CZcams and full videos
I love the slippers jean shorts and Carhartt coat look😅
Will it run. Ha. Riiiight. Starts first turn.
It's very Granville King.
We could use on of these in Rio Verde, Az. Requesting first right of refusal, should you decide to part ways....how cool. My first vehicle, a 46 cj2a. OoWeeee!
Just Enough Essential Parts.
Eugene the jeep bounced around a lot, G I’s riding in the GPW starting feeling like Eugene ,, hence “JEEP” 😉🇺🇸
😂😂😂 that thing looks pretty cool looks like my lifted up go-kart
My god guys...parka's and shorts? Put some pants on! David, you keep the flip flops on though...lol
JEEP - Just Enough Essential Parts.
I have a '53 like that .. flathead 4 banger .. all stock and in line for the shop
Love it! Looks like the motor out of Jeepers Creepers!😆
Super cool Jeep!
You road kill guys should get an old style cab over semi truck and have your way and funeral with it and call it international prime
Jeep= just enough essential parts. US army# all troops that were under 5 feet tall knew about this. If you have ever had the luxury to drive one of these old school Willy's you know that anyone close to 6 feet tall can't drive one. I've had a few of them over the years and I enjoy them. In the process of restoring a original Ford tub. It's taking me years to find one like my Grandpa's. Looking forward to the first time I get to drive it out of the garage.
Don't make it right, just make it run!
Love it !
I wondered what sort of engine would fit under that short hood. I know that Australian Army repowered some of theirs with the small block 6 out of the Ford Falcon in the 1960s. Jeep lengthened the hood later to fit their own 6 cylinder engine
Brew 102 was a non-alcoholic beer.
perfect OM617 swap canidate!
Don't forget that there was a Minneopolis Moline UTX Jeep first that was named from the Popeye cartoon. It was tested at Camp Ripley in 1940. I think Freiburger should get one.
You should keep the Jeep forever Steve its pretty badass!
5:25 dirty filter
5:28 clean filter 😂😂
I truly think you're right on jeeps name
I want the storage tube bumper!! What size was the tubing on it? I am going to see if my buddy can custom fab one for my 2013 JKU
It is sharp!
Jeep= Just Empty Every Pocket 😁
Man that thing looks like something I drew up in first grade
Candidate for Ultimate Adventure I think!
I love that Jeep
Steve is my hero
Shorten the engine side of the top hose to reduce air pocket ! ! ! It's higher than the top rad tank ! ! !
I love this jeep
Sure that was overdrive? CJ-2s have a two stick transfer case. Our CJ-5 with a Warn overdrive has two tall sticks, and a combined short transfer case.
That’s gotta be the most Jeepers Creepers mobile of Jeeps I’ve ever seen.
i like that jeep as is. all vehicles one piece windshield.
that is awesome
I love it...
Jeep stands for Just. Empty. Every. Pocket.
Dulcich move to Newfoundland? The mud isn't even frozen............... 😆
It reminds me of the rampage bull dozer in a way lol
What river did you pull that out of!?!?!🤣
so good :)
i love it
283 with power pack heads high compression
⚒Line Traction Momentum⚒
You can see their breath and this cool dude is wearing flip flops !!!!
I need some steel belted flip flops with a bottle opener 😂
Eff the seatbelts...We Die Like Men!!! ('49 CJ3A owner)
Nice video.
Fancy!
Oh boy did they get old 😢
It's like those 80s toys Stompers
Looks like stubby bobs backwards cousin
It’s not a Roadkill build if the passenger door latches shut.
That is exactly what they got jeep from was that comic it's on the jeep documentary
Pop a hole in the oil filter to drain the oil out and it wont run down your arm…
