I have thought about doing this many times. I want to recover my GMC Yukon interior with an old Leather Couch and make it look like a Ford King Ranch interior.

You're certainly milking that pile of crap for all you can Merlin.

Is it a green window!!???? That's what I am looking for!!!! 71'....72'

How fast does that lawn mower go?

So if it doesn’t mow any more, are you riding it or driving it? It’s like the El Camino, is it a truck or a car? 🤣 4:46

steeeles were broke kid

the worlds fastest indiain

i know im may be silly but fiends and family are the best

What year is that Vista Cruiser? I had a '72 with the 455. But mine had the tilt column! That beast was a boat that could really haul. Bumpers a quarter inch thick! Wish I still had it. The one that got away.

Awesome 👍

Merlin, thanks for the unexpected 'Easter Egg' in the 1970s vintage Olds Vista Cruiser. 1973 Driver's Ed car during summer school; East Bay, Northern Cal. Sequoia Metallic Green, in the 'crate,' everything green interior. AC! Tunes! Memories!!! Good, clean, American fun! ;-)

Ian Roussell found upholstery fabric for one of his hotrods the exact same way!

Bug head rests in the VW Ute Niiiice

what happened too the urinal

Less car talk…MORE RYN (the real star of the show) ❤

Me and my friend picked up a "free sofa" off the street,took it home started taking it apart to clean and found 1 Oz. of krip weed at time about $350 worth😆😑👍

That vista cruiser is sweeeeeeet. I love wagons and i aint talkin bout no red ryder needer. 😂😂😂

Looks like a good place to be from, hahaha

After you got the leather off of it, you should have taken it back and set it right where you picked it up. 🤣😂🤣😂 That would have been rude though. 🤣😂

Hi Merlin. That was great helping Dave out. Lots of good stories. He looked like he needed a friend. Nice score on the leather from the couch! The last recliner I salvaged had a bunch of good angle iron in it and I got a whole box full of 1/4x20 bolts and nuts out of it. I'm still using that stuff!

Do these young guys know what a drop light is?

Now take that Couch back to where you got it. Now that you've skinned it alive...

F California…I grew up out there Long Beach went too crap

Glad to see I not the only one that rips old couches and love seats , up for the leather to use on other stuff!!! door panels ,seats ,center consoles so forth and sew on lol

"This is stupid fast! Is that the brake?" LOL Classic.

At 16:40 it looked like a scene from Duel. McKay is a good man to know. Nascar!

I used to live in Kingman Arizona. And I made it a habit not to go to Lake Havasu in the dead of the summer. Because the humidity was just killer there.

Merlin: After working in the UAE, I discovered knowing the dew point is critical in hot climates. I was there, working outside in temps of 122 deg F. If the dew point rises above body temperature, then water will condense on you like a glass of iced tea. Sweating does nothing. Drinking water does nothing to help you avoid death. However, you can easily survive "dry heat" if you can stay hydrated and out of the direct sun.

Here's what I know about AZ at a rest stop I put my head under a hose bib by the time I got to the car I was dry

Good ole Barber Dave!

50% humidity oh boy try 90% we had last week 😭😪😅😂😅🤣it’s a dry heat they say

done lots of work up there at the top. putting in a new shelter pretty soon. Was than an aircraft engine in the wash? red truck looks to me like a Bumpside.

It's daylight!! Why ain't Paul in the shop?? Lol

is that a clean work bench ?????

thums up for the boulder move

Hot damn you told her there’s a 100 bucks out there. It didn’t take her long to come out there to get that money.

Love y’all’s work

Merlin, I wanted to come and see met in Long Beach but our club, the Harbor Area Model A Club is supporting the Relay for Life Car Show Benefits American Cancer Society) in Redondo Beach that weekend.

What time is the swap meet in Long Beach?

u clowns dont know much about railroads if u dont know that those are pull offs for speeders when section crews were working on active tracks !!

Nice leather find.

If I was you Merlin I would turn the leather inside out and use the suede it wouldn't be so hot and not as faded 🤔👍

In commifornia we set stuff out for free no one would take it for days . We put for sale $10 They would steal it fast . Phycology . People are crazy , true story .

Had the same couch 18 years ago, but it had a hideaway bed in it. Belonged to a live in girlfriend that lived with me a couple years. I hated that couch, but it was better then what I had at the time. She moved out, I had a new decent cloth couch within a week. So glad to see her and her dumb couch I stuck to constantly in my shorts leave.

My wife scored a "free" player piano a while back. She wanted parts off of it for an art project. It took me 3 days to take it apart. My lower back still hurts. Our humidity is way up with monsoon storms every day. We don't get your frying pan temps but 80% humidity at 92 degrees is awful. My buddies in Alabama and Mississippi are laughing.

Merlin, was it hot? How about setting up a garden umbrella on rollers so you guys can stop whining about "it's hot" 😢😂

I used to watch steve darnel & welder up yrs ago . Im about your age 53. When i first saw you at cousin pauls , I thought you were steve . Ive been watching you tear up stuff since & id say I've probably learned a few things. & pauls taught me , if you want it nice you do it twice ! Bahaha id love to live in glendale ut. Vs down the road from koh . Aka hell commifornia.

talking the material off that couch used to be my daily job , hotel furniture was usualy loaded with cash

Oh My! Was that a Quagga Mussel in the sofa? ;> Best!

It's great to see Dave again.
