I am not sure how else to say this without being too campy… but here it goes. I love you guys. Your channel isn’t just a fab and car channel with moments of silliness… no. Your channel is about family…family and friends that has fun in the shop and takes us along for the experiences. I always look forward to your videos with anticipation as if I were…in real life…hanging out with friends and family every couple days. I am disabled and just can’t experience life the way I had hoped to when I was younger and thought I had all the time in the world. As I get older I find I can do less and less every day and it gets quite depressing.
However… I always feel much better when I experience your videos. It truly goes beyond just entertainment. It feels like I have been invited into your family. Taking me into the shop to work on projects is just a bonus. Your channel isn’t an automotive and fabrication channel… Your channel is a family channel…your channel is my family channel. I wish you all a fantastic and happy new year and can’t wait for the ride. Thank you for sharing your family with all of us…I appreciate it more than my words can convey.
I think you said that for many of us my friend. That Family feelings catching.
Well said!!!
Hear! Hear! Put my thoughts into words, thank you! I'm disabled also and is the only reason I cringe when they're risking their sight with the safety squints. God Bless and Keep you all! Happy 2024 🎉
dito Yes please be safe @@uncleed8192
Thank you for that sweet comment! That means more than us than you know. Thanks for being a part of the Fab Rat Family!
Small lift, Ls swap, 35” tires, nice paint job and full interior. That’s the ticket for a comfortable daily driver 🍻🤙🏻
Yeah 35s are the perfect balance.
Love to watch you all happy new year.
Paul you need to install a set of Cadalic taillights which looks Cool I've seen that done on a Jeepster up here in Ontario ,Canada painted Burgundy with white top and wide white wall tires .Dwight from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
Mandated ads that are sponsored by big pharma, big tech. Both steal your data
Fascism is cruel
Everything above minus the paint job paint it later the top matches to good not to run it patina for a lil bit!
What ever you do , you HAVE TO put that bottle opener back in ! That is EPIC! ❤
Nice project! One suggestion. Add a brace on each door opening between upper hinge and latch. Then x brace them. Much easier to keep it strait before removing from the frame. Once off the frame the body will flex without a good floor. Definitely don't want to weld in a floor with the body slightly twisted. Will be looking forward to fallowing this project. :)
Happy New Year to the entire Fab Rats crew. This is going to be an awesome build.
Happy new year to you and your family..... from Bill in Illinois 🎉
Good morning and Happy New Year to everybody! 🎉🎊🎇✨
I love Grandma's honest uncut Commentary !
thank you guys the most... in oct of 2022 I got stomach cancer.. started chemo right after.. but anyway I would save the new videos to watch during chemo.. when I was feeling down you guys helped me forget chemo..and forget cancer.. and I made it.. today I'm cancer free.. thanks for being there.. you guys even posted a picture of me.. that made my day... thank you so very much.. love the fab rats crew.. its going to be a great 2024..
This is great news! Way to best cancer! Happy new year from all of us at Fab Rats!
Thank YOU all!!! Peace&Love from the Normandy france!...and a happy new year!!!!!
I’ve noticed Ms. Michelle has been slimming down over the last few months! Way to go girl! Keep it going lookin great and probably feelin great! I’m sure Paul loves you just as much either way! But way to go Girl looking awesome
22:29 You are very welcome, the hours I spent watching all of you fix up cars and truck, were time well spent. 2023 was a Hell of a crappy year for me, hopefully 2024 will be better :)
40’s, 1 tons, LS, full cage and new interior! ❤❤
We had a 1970 J4000 with 350CiD, and 3 speed in the floor. In 3rd gear you could push straight down on the shifter and swing it against the dash. My father bought the truck new and said they did that to give middle passenger leg room.
I’m so happy for Michelle that her Jeepster is finally getting fixed up. Paul and the crew will make this a sweet and safe ride for Michelle. I couldn’t have been the only one screaming that the windshield has corner posts. Oh well, live and learn. Happy New Year to the entire Fab Rats crew and family, it’s been a great year filled with great content, can’t wait for more this coming year. Jace is quite the baller too.
Yea. I have to say that was hard to watch!
Yea. I have to say that was hard to watch! Good luck mounting the next windshield frame
Thank you for taking me along.
Best channel on You Tube. Real people doing real stuff.
💯🤔 no one's really going to mention the lack of Brothers on the basketball court😂😂😂😂
Refreshing ,isn't it !!
YAY!!!!!
I love those old Jeepsters, glad you guys are doing it up right. She's going to be one sweet ride when you are done!
Love the bottle opener on the dash. Aftermarket of course.
All one needs 😂
19:55 two posts going down the middle *NAILED IT!!* 👍😎✊
The windshield made my day ! thanks for all the smile you put on my face.
Nice Jeepster thanks for sharing enjoy
Thank you for all of your great videos, and for all that you do for your community! Looking forward to another GREAT year!
Over the years some rude things have been said by so called fans about Michelle's laugh or whiney voice. I don't know what they are talking about, duh. let me say if it hasn't been said before Michelle has a beautiful singing voice. she does a lot to make each podcast better the way she enacts with Paul and the rest of the crew is priceless. Thank for the effort you good people put into every video. "Happy New Years".
Michelle, you are living my dream. I can't wait to see it all finished.
Happy new year from Adelaide South Australia. Keep up the great work. You guys are an inspiration to so many people.
Happy New Year to the Fab Rats family! I really enjoy your channel and watching your builds and recoveries. Also, loooking forward to seeing Michelle’s Jeepster finally be built in 2024.
YES YES YES Paul. That's the right way. After 50 years of body off, I'm now rebuilding with Stainless steel. The parts are there forever.
Glad to see the jeepster finally in the shop.
Thank YOU guys for putting out family rated quality videos. Fans don't watch junk. thank you for what you're doing. I wish the best to all of you in the coming New Year. Thanks for the video.
The Fabulous FabRats crew finishing another Awesome year of videos showing hard work, fun, and good deeds. I can't thank you enough. You motivated me to doing more, and better.
Happy New Year Cox family, and all the fans everywhere !
Amazing, we finally get to see you actually finish one with paint. LOL 😂
I do love the old patinas on the wrecker and the FJ
Paul, when lifting sheet steel with big magnets if you have room, put another sheet or bar steel on the bottom side of the sheet that you were lifting. An old timer taught me that years ago…
Love you all !!! Your channel brings back so many memories which are great … I just wish I had the boys with me so we could enjoy them together …. But life happens and you have to move forward !!!! Thanks again for your input and support . Love you all!!!🎉HAPPY NEW YEAR bro
I have watched your channel from the very 1st video. I love all the projects you have made.
BUT......THIS IS THE ONE I'm most excited about. I know it will turn out absolutely amazing, but watching it from start to finish will be extremely entertaining.
Shawn was a gread addition. He makes sure stuff gets done while paul is gone. Good to see someone take control when paul isnt around
Jace is one heck of a ball player! Definitely has some mad hop's!! lol
Thank you guys for all of your shows of rebuild cars ect. God bless you all. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Michelle's song Dumb ways to die is a new hit!! Love that song
Happy new year guys and keep on posting the great videos
Gotta say the Jeepster is the build I have been most excited to see happen!
Thank you guys for the fan appreciation aknolagement. I love your channel and all of your crew and family your videos are very entertaining I love watching your builds and your work especially muffler designs and engines thank you.
Merry Christmas and happy new year from one of your Canadian subscribers, I wish I lived closer so I could visit and learn from you in person Paul, and meet the rest of the crew, found you guys through matt's off road recovery
Matt's off-road recovery is how I found them also.
Happy new year too you and your family 🎉🥃🍻can’t wait to see what you get up to in 24 ❤
How cool! In 1971, I was at a jeep dealership drooling over 1 of these, trying to work a deal for one. I was 20, no credit, and raising a 1year old. Couldn't work a deal, but I've always loved those jeepsteers. I still have the dealership brochure, somewhere.......
I'm so glad to see this getting some love.
It’s been a fun year to watch your projects coming together and going along with you on some awesome trail rides . Thanks for sharing and have a prosperous new year 🎉
I have never seen a Jeepster with a top, and I likey. I am pretty sure another first will be a Fab Rats paint job. I'm looking forward to the build. You deserve only the best Michelle. Have great 2024 🎉.
Keep the bottle opener on the dash! Best feature on that ride by far!
The rock-cralwer is absolutely amazing!
When Paul starts telling "I'm good with a lot of stuff", you know it's bad.
Hello fellas thanks for the shows, I just learned how to do CZcams videos and streaming. 5 years without a TV and all along I could have been doing this. Have a safe day and God bless you all. Fred from Upstate NY.
Yes Michelle's Jeepster is in the shop and getting worked on. Happy New Year Fab Rats!
🤠 Happy New Year to you All - Tim
Happy New Year to everyone at Fab Rats and everyone watching.
Happy new year to you and your family and to your whole crew. Can’t wait to follow you in the coming year.
That jeepster looks like it will be a whole lot of fun when it is done. I bet it will look very nice. Nice ride for a pretty lady.
2 things I would like to see. 1 if you plan on painting it please keep the top white. 2 put the bottle opener back on the dash.
Just noticed the dash comes with a vintage soda bottle opener. Sweet! Perfect for vintage glass bottle Fanta and more.
A good new year to you Michelle and your family.
Thanks for sharing, your content is continually excellent!
Happy New Year to the whole Fab Rats team!
Michelle, count your blessings - handsome Hubby, beautiful family, super friends, outrageous adventures and a mad jeepster. What more can a gal ask for………..
Basketball Hero!!
Ka-SLAM!! Wow.
Michelle is looking so happy on this episode just big smiles
Happy new year, keep the build content coming. Thanks!!
We knew you were up to something in last weeks video when you worked on that truck in front of the shop on the apron, the whole episode. There was something in the shop you didn't want us to see just yet. Then you threw us an Easter Egg when Michelle got into something orange in the background and drove it into the shop real quick. Well, you did not disappoint. I'm kinda excited for Michelle on this build. Can't wait to see the story unfold. Thanks for sharing!
I am enjoying this build. Hope you keep the body original if possible. These are very rare and you have the makings of a classic. Enjoy!
This will be a worth-while project for sure,👍, I was thinking that the Jeepster was eat-up with rust for some reason,🙄, some people believe in the theory, "out of sight, out of mind", but those of us who understand how vehicles are actually held together, know better than to do a repair like that,🤞, lol, great video guys, and thanks for sharing.
Good morning Paul! I'm kinda a late comer to your channel. I was introduced to all y'all thanks to the Wrecker Games earlier this year. I have done a little bit of binge watching your content and keeping up with all of your new stuff also! I love all that you and your team do.
Happy New Year to all y'all at Fab Rats!!!!!
Building Michelle a princess prowler. Can't wait to see what you all do to it.
That dude's crawler was beautiful, that shade of paint goes so well with the patina
Been waiting to see this build, this is gonna be an amazing build. Can’t wait to see it done
Let me take the oppertunity to thank you all as well. Y'all bring a smile to this old man with every video I watch. I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and wish you all the best in the upcoming New Year!
P.S. Can't wait to see how the jeepster comes out. I agree with you Paul, think 4" lift and 35's are going to look way cool!!
I'm Glad that you found a Roof for Michelle's Jeepster. So you didn't have to go to Arizona to get that Jeepster that I found for you.❤
Love that you have started the Jeppster..
I have an answer to Hunters question “why do I always draw the short straw?” Simply, it’s because you’re young and strong…………and you heal fast. 😉
😅
Blessings on you all and Happy New Year!
Finally some real work on the jeepster. Can't wait to see the progress.
That is the sweetest Jeepster ive ever seen!
That "granma Lolly is giving you THAT look" never gets old... 😂😂😁😁😜😜
Your making your girl really happy..she lights up every time she's around her jeepster
Looking forward to Fabrats 2024!
Love your show! Love being able to watch my favs without all the filthy language. Your show is very refreshing, love the family vibe and even though I'm at old lady with zero mechanical skills, just seeing my husband enjoy every episode with wonderful. Bless you all 2024.
What the heck, Paul!!! When I need to disassemble something new to me, I hit the Internet. I found two windshield frames on eBay with the posts. Seeing the whole assembly makes it obvious how it was assembled and how to get it apart. It makes sense that it needs a longer base to resist the wind when the top is off. The original Willy's Jeep has a long and angled support.
Thanks for all the entertainment and happy new year to all
Flappy New Yak Fab Rats Crew!
And from the bottom of my heart, Happy New Year. By far my favorite CZcamsrs. You have opened up your lives to us and I can honestly say we all consider you family. It's more than entertainment.
Hunter did a GREAT job holding the camera still on the trailer for the ride up! But I can't believe you all made him ride back there for some b-roll! That's just mean Paul/Michelle! Poor lil feller was probably frozen stiff!!
In 2008, Christmas took on a whole new meaning for me & my wife. Our 1st Grandchild was born & she was about 7 months old @ Christmas time. I already had a trimmed beard, so I let it grow as much as it could in those 7 months & I played Santa Claus for her very first Christmas. We now have 5 Grandchildren & the first 4, I was Santa for all of them. Our youngest Grandchild hasn’t seen me in a Santa Suit, I’m too big for my suit these days. Christmas is all about them now. Our 1st is now 15 y/o & the youngest is 4. Can’t beat that.
If he hasn’t already, Jace will be getting a lot of calls from schools to play some ball because he is really good!!!
You have too stay with that stock colors orange ish hew! It's a great color,it's fitting.gonna be a great build.not too high up,gotta get in there.
As I’m screaming at the TV nooooo!!!!!! That windshield housing is held in with posts. You gotta take some bolts out, and it slides out.
Thanks Guys
Michelle deserves the best, her work mostly behind the scenes gives us what we all Iike to see from Fab Rats 🐀. She's not had a special build yet! It's been long overdue! Til next time, see you then.😊
Glad to see the jeepster build finally starting to happen!
Happy New Year!!!🎉
Best to all of you in the New Year ❤
Same to you all and Looking forward to what this year brings!
I hope that you all had a Merry Christmas and wishing you a Happy New Year!
Send it to robby to get the tub in order. We love the watching somthing going from your shop to robbys, and to Chad's. Bringing the channels together..like a new golden nugget series.. to be
honest I loved the whole nugget saga, search out the vehicle somewhere impossible to reach, make your way in, recover and remove, then the restoration begins...and so on
