The best line is at 40:52 when he says “we’re limited to 15mph because the hood isn’t latched” as if that’s the one thing about the car that makes it unsafe 😂😂😂
The fact you were building this on the side...any put it out in one video...this could literally be your biggest video yet. And you deserve it. Way to go, man!
It really could have been his biggest video tbh he needs tonwork on video names if he titled it tesla swapped a minivan it would reach so many more people
You guys should look into panel bonding adhesive for joining the two cars together, they have ones that are rated for use on both aluminum and steel and if properly prepped are as strong as welding. Looks like you did a pretty good job of fitting it up but I fear for you if you ever crash it, I could see the body just shearing off and killing everybody inside. Or maybe build a roll cage inside of it so that the structure of the body isn't as needed. Looking forward to see how you finish it all up.
I was thinking the same thing they'res no way those bolts are gonna hold if it crashes/gets hit but also they cut out alot so there's missing a bunch of structural stuff as well but idk
Dude this video felt like a full production extended tv episode. The editing and everything is just so good. Only 5 minutes in and I’m so hyped for this build.
Vin.... I don't think you give yourself enough credit for how important you were in the development in hoonigan. I can honestly say between you and hert you have created so much motivation/enthusiasm towards the car community. I am so sad and happy that you and hert are going off and enjoying your lives. Still miss those early DT days waking up before work and our whole flat team (4 guys) watching and getting amped up to go do our mechanical jobs. We all have drift cars and hold some sort of automotive job. I am foreman of my own shop and can honestly say YOU are one of the main motivators!!!
100% long content like this def brings in the revenue ... specially if you watch it start to finish. I was short on time but had to see it so I watched at 1.5x speed. Absolute greatest content I've seen all year! Sucks he is getting backlash from the people who think EV's are ruining the automotive world.@@8SecSleeper
My first car was my mom's 2000 Odyssey, I loved that thing. As someone who now loves EV's as well, this is the ultimate build. Nostalgia galore, and SWEET build! Best build I have seen in a long time.
Tbh, it's also showing just how versatile teslas could be if they really wanted to make them. You can take a shitty minivan, throw it on a tesla, and you've improved it in every way (except range)
@@jttech44weather we like it or not, this is the future of car modification. Take an electric platform and get as creative as possible. Kyle is blazing the path
Lmao it's pretty embarrassing any of you think this is a "swap" let alone the future or trail blazing. Yup hack a body off one car and just attach it to a pre built chassis. Real trail blazing there buddy. This is what happens when computer nerds think they can be car guys.
Bro invested 100 points into foresight and production value Brother I'm honestly impressed and happy to see this happening. I knew you guys would do somthing crazy but man you keep raising the stakes.
This is, without a doubt, the greatest sleeper build I've ever seen. You guys own 2 of the baddest mini vans on the planet. I think a suicide door setup for the back doors would be a nice touch!
@TheReaper42069 doors that open from the front. So the hinge would be on the back of the door and they would swing open opposite a regular door. They were dubbed suicide doors because if you opened them on the driver's side and a passing vehicle hit it, you would get crushed by the door.
the funny thing is that all of the absurd minivans i've seen are all Odysseys. There's the 2 the boostedbois have, i remember an episode of Top Gear USA where they had a like 2012 one with 1000 hp and then there's Honda's own 2022 one with the 900 hp hybrid Indycar engine that'll race next year mounted in the middle of it
I’ve never watched a 1 hour long video and still think it wasn’t long enough. Wow guys you outdid yourselves again such a awesome project, can’t wait to see it completely finished.
Wow. Great job. I’m an old school hot rodder with what is now slow American iron V8s. Stoked to see you guys carrying the torch with new school hot rodding. that is a ton of work and I am impressed.
I can tell how serious this project is and how dedicated everyone is to it. Kyle has the dog taking measurements at 6:50 😂😂😂. Edit: Thanks for the likes .lol
Some 19" odyssey wheels from a later model odyssey would make it the perfect sleeper. Same bolt pattern as a tesla plaid. Just need to do some measuring to get the offset figured out, get them cut and widened so they tuck and look factory while still rocking a wider tire and clearing the brakes. Mount the seats up a little higher so you have a better field of view (and look normal from outside), paint it the factory color and just make it look like a well cared for minivan. Then blow the doors off of 99% of the cars on your local Mexican roads.

You have to take it to a Tesla dealership now for the electrical problems 😂😂 this is such a cool build. Can’t wait to see it finished.

Never thought I’d start loving EV content from you when I originally subscribed for Honda’s, hood exits and turbos 😂 keep up the amazing work. Genuinely one of the most slept on channels on CZcams!

@@legros731yeah, I'll be glad when the factory quits doing too. That's what all cars are.... Either a body shell on a unibody frame, or a body on a frame. It's still a one of a kind. I haven't seen a Honda mini-van on a Tesla unibody....until now. I like it. I think it's badass.
@@krustymudracer good for you it as crap as putting a corvette body on a pick up truck stupid and useless And by the way most car are unibody they don't do what you say even then the frame is not the same on a f150 and a f350
Great work Guy are going about the tricky way. Around 35 years ago I put a Vett body on a lowered Bronco. I just took body off the truck and slowly lowered the Vett on the frame, making whatever mods necessary to get it to fit. You could've saved a lot of work by doing similar. This leave as much a possible of the van interior intact Thats the whole trick, when you get in, it has to be the same as the doner body, hopefully the outside also.
Kyle, I am so so proud of you and wyatt and your team. I remember when you barely had a 100000 subs. Then you broke one million. You guys are amazing. Never stop BOOSTEDBOIZ FOR LIFE
Kyle you have the coolest neighbours, apart from all the two step checks and burnouts, using an angle grinder at 2 in the morning and not getting any complaints, crazy!
@@williamsinger4124 ohh I forgot about that, that’s the day Kyle went full Florida man, just after that he was on Facebook marketplace looking at airboats
This sleeper swap is already very cool, it's going to be a LOT of fun to drive and race. When it is all weather/noise sealed up, the interior is all back in and you can put it in race mode to make it do what you intended and once you roll the fenders keep it bone stock and homely looking for true stealth mode everywhere it gets driven and do some damage with it at the track! We're looking forward to the rest of the series on this sleeper beast build and the final finished machine.
Your editing skills and attention to detail is spot on, you should really do some “start to finish” 45min-1 hr videos on the other builds you’ve done. I’m not a fan of long videos but I tell you I’m into your content so much I’d watch and I’m sure million others would as well.
Put some caulk or at least paint between the aluminum and steel interfaces, and then paint over the whole joint after it’s assembled to prevent galvanic corrosion between the dissimilar metals 👍
I love this ❤ many years ago, I wrote hotrod magazine and asked if anyone had ever thought about body swapping an electric car. My thoughts were to use a cobra kit car body. The public reply from Frieburger was," who knows, who cares". Your project is what hot rodding is all about. Building something unique that kicks azz. I absolutely love this ❤
Made it look so easy!! That research you did definitely paid off! The skills you demonstrate and progress with are always improving and evolving!! Wyatt is a beast with his fabrication and adaptation in each of your builds! Love you guys, I have been a subscriber since you were at your mom's garage! Proud of you guys!! 👏
The fitment of the wheels looks great. Pretty certain you could probably get some bushings with caster adjustment if you need to centre them up more. Been a fan since the minivan was briefly lawn mower swapped! OG’s will remember that one 😆😉
Fam! You are Dr. TeslaStein! You're a genius! I'm on the other side of Florida. You sand a sub off this build ALONE! THIS IS 5 MONTHS AGO! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE UPDATES! Awesome job, bro!
Hope they go through the process of seam sealing the absolute hell out of that thing to keep the outside out, so it's mint, one of the coolest projects ever.
This is awesome and you have my attention for the full project. You making the Honda accessories work (windows, etc) is an excellent idea to make the project really come to life. Regarding the plate covering the space between the dash and firewall, I suggest you block off the entire nose of the vehicle from inside the engine bay to prevent air from getting through; it would be better for aerodynamics and prevent the dash from lifting like it did in this video. Very cool project, well done!
This just kept getting better every minute. This video, the creativity flowing through every creation, every build, project and the overall top tier level of absolutely captivating content in general coming from this channel non stop back to back is honestly so greatly entertaining in every way and more that I could go on and on but describing every aspect wouldn't do any justice to whats going on here and what you guys do.... I could easily watch 3 more hours of if it kept going. At the end of each video I'm ready to see what you guys are going to do next. Keep up the great work guys, see ya next upload. 👍
just need a Christmas tree mount on the top and you can dominate Cleetus's Christmas Tree Race. I would love to see that happen. Just to see Cleetus have to pick his jaw off the floor when this thing beats the Trackhawk hands down!!
This is that next level stuff you talked about when going down to Florida! There is no way anyone came close to building something this clever this entire year!!!!
b is for build wanted to body swap a lamborghini murcielago onto a model 3 but scrapped the idea because the dashboard would stick to far into the door.
Kyle...this is an awesome, cool project, you did an awesome job planning it and explaining and showing the evolution and steps involved...GREAT SLEEPER PROJECT, GREAT VIDEO! We're looking forward to seeing everything else you do to and with this sick, fast, truly stealth mini van! 👍
Kyle you have once again impressed us with your ingenuity. The fact that you have successfully done this when nobody else would, shows absolute dedication while being absolutely hilarious. Also I guarantee that someone will turn that booty shake at 21:40 into a gif and haunt the internet forever 😂
In order to prevent galvanic corrosion to your aluminum, where the two dissimilar metals meet, you should encapsulate them, isolate them with something like a layer of EPDM and use fasteners with a zinc coating, which will act as a sacrificial anode. You will have to replace the fasteners regularly, but it's better than having your aluminum Tesla parts corrode where the van body mounts. I think the sliding doors getting a gullwing treatment would be cool.
Pretty dang slick guys! Trolling us with a cut up Plaid named Eroy while you toil away in secret building the Plaidessey behind our backs, well played indeed! I'll admit I thought Y'all lost your marbles cutting that car up, but it made for some great videos and some impressive numbers at the dragstrip. I had no reason to believe there was and end game, I figured that project would be added to the fleet and we'd move on..... but NO! Now the true motive is revealed, with footage you shot before you even started any of it, my mind is blown, freakin Brilliant! This is the video of the year right here, pure gold! And it takes your channel to another level with the fore thought and creativity to execute such an epic story line successfully, and condense it down into one banger of a CZcams video, well done!
I wonder if Elon accounted for what car culture would do with his vehicles and their various parts? I wonder when the Tesla minivan will end up being an actual thing now?
He did, he talked about it on Joe Rogan and loved how people were modding the looks and doing body swaps or even power plant rebuilds, like what richrebuilds was doing
This is absolutely phenomenal. I can't imagine the 100's of hours of work that went into this off camera. Im stoked to see all the content with this bad boy, most of all this vs the Rowdyssey when they are both at full kill. Keep killing it fellas.
I was grinning ear to ear from the moment I seen the thumbnail to the end of the hour long video! Totally out of left field. I can't wait to see the progression and story arc of the Plaidessy!
Watching the evolution of this channel and all of the vehicles has been one hell of a good time watching you on 1320 when you were just a kid seems like yesterday. You are the only dude I still follow from those days. Keep dreaming and enjoy making them real🇺🇲
This is probably the BEST BUILD I have ever seen in my life! Man I’m very proud of this channel and proud of everything you have done Kyle! Keep it up! 💯💪🏻🤙🏻
Man I never liked minivans but I had a Honda odyssey once before and it actually drove really nice good handling and the seats were extremely comfortable I can only imagine how sweet this thing is !!!
I never in a million years saw this coming, yet it makes perfect sense! This was such a great idea! I’m way more excited for this, than I was with e-roy. This might be the best minivan this channel has ever had
I don't know if you hired someone or just showed us your skills but the animations on the build explanation where fire! That's the type of stuff that the CZcams Algorithm likes to see!!
Kyle this is amazing! I have been following your channel since the early days and it's incredible to see how far you have come! I can't wait to see what crazy things you do next, love you man!
Kyle, great job on the editing for the video bro! You kept us entertained and looking forward to the ends result! Worlds first “Pladessy”🔥🔥🔥 Let’s Gooo!!!💪🏼
Super inspiring a guy who started off with little knowledge and a turbo kit and is now body swapping a vehicle like this. Congrats can't wait to c what the future holds
Get this thing a nice interior and a proper paint job in the oem plaid black color and it would be cherry. Still has A/C and all. Super cool build guys.
I think it'd be best to try to have the dash upholstered in the same material as the tesla dash! I'd love to see you guys make this as seamless as possible on the inside.
Okayy I was refreshing all Day waiting for this “insane built”. NEVER did I see this coming to a minivan 🙌🏼. Soooo worth the wait! This is going to KILL it man! Sooo sick 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I don't have many words, but damn thanks for sharing this all in ONE VIDEO! Best Tesla build on Earth for sure! I'm here for this! Can't wait for more content on this absolute unit. Amazing job to you and your team. Hats off!
Been watching yall for years. Regardless of how popular this build is.... IM SO F'N PROUD OF YOU!!! BRO....this is legit. Absolutely original, and completely on point to your brand. Absolutely love it. Well done BB.
This is awesome! I’ve seen some unique builds, but this is next level. Can’t wait to see this thing cut a 9 at the track. This thing needs to be at SEMA.

Make the rear doors suicide swing open. Great project. Now we are waiting to see what Wyatt built

My exact thoughts 😂
I just commented the same thing. In the 90's we used the suicide door hinges and the bear latches. They have them as kits on ebay.
Yah that or the, of course, played out Lambo doors for the back.
Suicide rear doors would be hilarious!! Just when you think things can't get any weirder the rear doors open backwards.

can SEE the passion and excitement Kyle has for this one! passion makes the best content
More passion more passion more energy more energy more footwork
Kyle, I am so so proud of you and wyatt and your team. I remember when you barely had a 100000 subs. Then you broke one million. You guys are amazing. Never stop BOOSTEDBOIZ FOR LIFE
I think you could add a bit more reinforcement to the frame to get better rigidity. Especially around the coilovers tower.
Eroy couldn't have had a better transformation, you killed it dude! All the hard work and stress paid off 💪
Kyle you have the coolest neighbours, apart from all the two step checks and burnouts, using an angle grinder at 2 in the morning and not getting any complaints, crazy!
They didn't even complain when he filled a pool floatie with oxygen and blew the windows out of his house lol
@@williamsinger4124 ohh I forgot about that, that’s the day Kyle went full Florida man, just after that he was on Facebook marketplace looking at airboats
I hope they get one helluva gift basket for Christmas😂
This sleeper swap is already very cool, it's going to be a LOT of fun to drive and race. When it is all weather/noise sealed up, the interior is all back in and you can put it in race mode to make it do what you intended and once you roll the fenders keep it bone stock and homely looking for true stealth mode everywhere it gets driven and do some damage with it at the track! We're looking forward to the rest of the series on this sleeper beast build and the final finished machine.
Don't forget the Honda hub caps.
Your editing skills and attention to detail is spot on, you should really do some “start to finish” 45min-1 hr videos on the other builds you’ve done. I’m not a fan of long videos but I tell you I’m into your content so much I’d watch and I’m sure million others would as well.
Damn Kyle killin it with the 52 week plans. This whole year was planned and the next year is pretty much planned too? Nice!
Put some caulk or at least paint between the aluminum and steel interfaces, and then paint over the whole joint after it’s assembled to prevent galvanic corrosion between the dissimilar metals 👍
Go Hurd some turds plumber
I love this ❤ many years ago, I wrote hotrod magazine and asked if anyone had ever thought about body swapping an electric car. My thoughts were to use a cobra kit car body. The public reply from Frieburger was," who knows, who cares". Your project is what hot rodding is all about. Building something unique that kicks azz. I absolutely love this ❤
Made it look so easy!! That research you did definitely paid off! The skills you demonstrate and progress with are always improving and evolving!! Wyatt is a beast with his fabrication and adaptation in each of your builds! Love you guys, I have been a subscriber since you were at your mom's garage! Proud of you guys!! 👏
I had to said definitely PLAID off ...
The fitment of the wheels looks great. Pretty certain you could probably get some bushings with caster adjustment if you need to centre them up more. Been a fan since the minivan was briefly lawn mower swapped! OG’s will remember that one 😆😉
Suspension misalignment bushes
Fam! You are Dr. TeslaStein! You're a genius! I'm on the other side of Florida. You sand a sub off this build ALONE!
THIS IS 5 MONTHS AGO! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE UPDATES!
Awesome job, bro!
Hope they go through the process of seam sealing the absolute hell out of that thing to keep the outside out, so it's mint, one of the coolest projects ever.
This is awesome and you have my attention for the full project. You making the Honda accessories work (windows, etc) is an excellent idea to make the project really come to life. Regarding the plate covering the space between the dash and firewall, I suggest you block off the entire nose of the vehicle from inside the engine bay to prevent air from getting through; it would be better for aerodynamics and prevent the dash from lifting like it did in this video. Very cool project, well done!
Absolutely. I would LOVE to see this refined to the point of comfortable to drive and I'd watch every second of it
This just kept getting better every minute. This video, the creativity flowing through every creation, every build, project and the overall top tier level of absolutely captivating content in general coming from this channel non stop back to back is honestly so greatly entertaining in every way and more that I could go on and on but describing every aspect wouldn't do any justice to whats going on here and what you guys do.... I could easily watch 3 more hours of if it kept going. At the end of each video I'm ready to see what you guys are going to do next. Keep up the great work guys, see ya next upload. 👍
Very nice work with the swap. Looks factory manufactured. With a silent surprise. Brilliant .
But what does the gym trainer think of it? 🎉
Dude I was thinking the same thing
Bruh 😂 I like the way you think though 😎
just need a Christmas tree mount on the top and you can dominate Cleetus's Christmas Tree Race. I would love to see that happen. Just to see Cleetus have to pick his jaw off the floor when this thing beats the Trackhawk hands down!!
Yea cuz a 10 second car is gona hold its own in a 6 second lineup
*8 second
@@jnoe2056 10 second**** your brain cells are struggling if you think it’s going to run the same time
I bet it isn't much slower. probably still lighter than the original plaid and pretty good aero. @@mafia631
well, the shell came with roof racks
This is that next level stuff you talked about when going down to Florida! There is no way anyone came close to building something this clever this entire year!!!!
b is for build wanted to body swap a lamborghini murcielago onto a model 3 but scrapped the idea because the dashboard would stick to far into the door.
@@ioney-at okay that would of been interesting! he’s done multiple body swaps that have been effective and clean as well.
Wow, the foresight and commitment to pull this off is amazing!
So sick, it's rare to see something completely different in the car scene these days. You guys are definitely blazing new trails. Solid work
36:06
This has to be the best sleeper build
Haven't even gotten three minutes in and am already in absolute love with this project.
Kyle...this is an awesome, cool project, you did an awesome job planning it and explaining and showing the evolution and steps involved...GREAT SLEEPER PROJECT, GREAT VIDEO! We're looking forward to seeing everything else you do to and with this sick, fast, truly stealth mini van! 👍
Hell yeah!! A silent mini van absolutely mobbing past you is crazy!
So cool to see Kyle so hyped about a project again. OG van vibes for sure. It looks so good too. He definitely did his research 🦾
Kyle you have once again impressed us with your ingenuity. The fact that you have successfully done this when nobody else would, shows absolute dedication while being absolutely hilarious. Also I guarantee that someone will turn that booty shake at 21:40 into a gif and haunt the internet forever 😂
In order to prevent galvanic corrosion to your aluminum, where the two dissimilar metals meet, you should encapsulate them, isolate them with something like a layer of EPDM and use fasteners with a zinc coating, which will act as a sacrificial anode. You will have to replace the fasteners regularly, but it's better than having your aluminum Tesla parts corrode where the van body mounts. I think the sliding doors getting a gullwing treatment would be cool.
One of the best car related videos of the year. This is awesome. Can’t believe how successful that was.
Pretty dang slick guys! Trolling us with a cut up Plaid named Eroy while you toil away in secret building the Plaidessey behind our backs, well played indeed! I'll admit I thought Y'all lost your marbles cutting that car up, but it made for some great videos and some impressive numbers at the dragstrip. I had no reason to believe there was and end game, I figured that project would be added to the fleet and we'd move on..... but NO!
Now the true motive is revealed, with footage you shot before you even started any of it, my mind is blown, freakin Brilliant!
This is the video of the year right here, pure gold! And it takes your channel to another level with the fore thought and creativity to execute such an epic story line successfully, and condense it down into one banger of a CZcams video, well done!
Well said. Couldn't agree more. Can't wait to see them add the finishing touches
This comment right here. I hope he sees it because this was my exact mindset. 🤯.
Well plaid indeed
@@XCSme niceeee
First, James runs a 6 in Mc Flurries, then the look on Kyle’s face when it all comes together.
I wonder if Elon accounted for what car culture would do with his vehicles and their various parts? I wonder when the Tesla minivan will end up being an actual thing now?
He did, he talked about it on Joe Rogan and loved how people were modding the looks and doing body swaps or even power plant rebuilds, like what richrebuilds was doing
imagine running a sawzall through sheetmetal at 2am and your neighbors not calling the cops. kyles living the dream LOL
He’s usually 2 stepping or doing burnouts. They were grateful he was keeping the noise down for once 😂
This is absolutely phenomenal. I can't imagine the 100's of hours of work that went into this off camera. Im stoked to see all the content with this bad boy, most of all this vs the Rowdyssey when they are both at full kill. Keep killing it fellas.
Hit the end of the video and realized I've been grinning for the last hour. The Plaidessey is a work of art.
living proof you can achieve anything if you keep at it long enough. great job, looking forward to watching v2 unfold!
I was grinning ear to ear from the moment I seen the thumbnail to the end of the hour long video! Totally out of left field. I can't wait to see the progression and story arc of the Plaidessy!
Watching the evolution of this channel and all of the vehicles has been one hell of a good time watching you on 1320 when you were just a kid seems like yesterday. You are the only dude I still follow from those days. Keep dreaming and enjoy making them real🇺🇲
This is probably the BEST BUILD I have ever seen in my life! Man I’m very proud of this channel and proud of everything you have done Kyle! Keep it up! 💯💪🏻🤙🏻
Man I never liked minivans but I had a Honda odyssey once before and it actually drove really nice good handling and the seats were extremely comfortable I can only imagine how sweet this thing is !!!
I never in a million years saw this coming, yet it makes perfect sense!
This was such a great idea! I’m way more excited for this, than I was with e-roy. This might be the best minivan this channel has ever had
I don't know if you hired someone or just showed us your skills but the animations on the build explanation where fire!
That's the type of stuff that the CZcams Algorithm likes to see!!
That was the one thing I out sourced, shoutout to the donut media guys on that one!
Knew it was the donut boys as soon as I saw it 😂
Kyle this is amazing! I have been following your channel since the early days and it's incredible to see how far you have come! I can't wait to see what crazy things you do next, love you man!
As an overnight worker, a random huge 1 hour boosted boiz video drop was an incredible surprise
So admire your vision drive skills and attitude. You guys would be safe hands for any project ! Respect
Kyle, great job on the editing for the video bro! You kept us entertained and looking forward to the ends result!
Worlds first “Pladessy”🔥🔥🔥
Let’s Gooo!!!💪🏼
Super inspiring a guy who started off with little knowledge and a turbo kit and is now body swapping a vehicle like this. Congrats can't wait to c what the future holds
Get this thing a nice interior and a proper paint job in the oem plaid black color and it would be cherry. Still has A/C and all. Super cool build guys.
imagine just pulling up to a minivan thinking your going to gap it and the damn thang just takes off hahaha
I think it'd be best to try to have the dash upholstered in the same material as the tesla dash! I'd love to see you guys make this as seamless as possible on the inside.
Okayy I was refreshing all
Day waiting for this “insane built”.
NEVER did I see this coming to a minivan 🙌🏼.
Soooo worth the wait! This is going to KILL it man! Sooo sick 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Kyle and Wyatt, you guys seriously killed it with this one. Can't wait foe more
You guys are crazy. The good kind of crazy. The kind of crazy that makes everyone smile.
Well done guys!. Great job!
I must say. I was not expecting this at all. I had a bunch of diff predictions. But this surprised me for real. AND I’M ALL FOR IT. LFG!
I don't have many words, but damn thanks for sharing this all in ONE VIDEO! Best Tesla build on Earth for sure! I'm here for this! Can't wait for more content on this absolute unit. Amazing job to you and your team. Hats off!
What an incredible project. That b-pillar didn't end up looking that out of place at all in the end. Can't wait to see this at the strip.
Been watching yall for years. Regardless of how popular this build is....
IM SO F'N PROUD OF YOU!!!
BRO....this is legit. Absolutely original, and completely on point to your brand.
Absolutely love it.
Well done BB.
Okay now THIS I did not see coming. Bravo.
Edit: This is gonna hit trending. Calling it now.
This is awesome! I’ve seen some unique builds, but this is next level. Can’t wait to see this thing cut a 9 at the track. This thing needs to be at SEMA.
These are the kind of videos i love get to see the boys doing what they do and basically the whole build in one video
Kyle Brings a whole different ballgame to the table and Wyatt probably one of the best fabricator and welder I've ever seen You Guys are not making history your building the Future absolute LEGENDS Florida Men!!
Better Panel Gaps then a the original Plaid out of the Factory.🤣 Great Job!
