I watched the 2 recovery episodes before this one, and what a perspective seeing them in that order. Brought a tear to my eye. What an amazing gift to an amazing man. Well done Matt, Paul, and everyone involved. When I first started watching 2+ years ago, I kinda went, "What's up with the old guy?" Then I came to enjoy & appreciate him more and more. This episode moved Ed firmly into " F'in LEGEND" position, and I think I finally really & truly appreciate why Matt has always had him around. Ed is a treasure. And an 84 year old stud, hiking into the forest with a cane! I'm now looking forward to Paul & Fab Rats restoration series on the LJ. And I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing Ed drive it again.

Yes! I regret not knowing a lot about my grandparents who've passed on. I was always too young (but not uninterested in their lives, I just didn't know the types of things I wanted to ask them), but then when I got old enough to ask them questions, they were already too old and on their way out. Sometimes you want to know the stupid questions, like 'What was their favourite colour", but then other days you really want to know what they think of things, like did they ever imagine computers would a normal occurrence now. We definitely need more of Ed's stories!

“Ed you were right” Epic quote of the day. How about Ed at his age going to a place like that and having more than one gold claim. That first area is a large hydraulic pit and it’s not easy walking around those, I’ve been to a couple with a metal detector before. I literally could watch a two hour show on how the recovery went and I’m really looking forward to it.

Just got say that I had not come across your channel until Eric at South Maine Auto mentioned it. Never thought I would enjoy watching about vehicle recovery so much! Just amazed at the terrain you can get your vehicles through, and even more amazed that you can get back out with another vehicle in tow. I love the banter amongst your crew members, whilst at the same time it is so obvious just how professional you guys and gals really are. Amazing how you all keep your cool, even in the trickiest of situations. A lot of the people you rescue must wonder just how on earth anyone is going to get to them, let alone get them out. Seeing the old banana or the Morvair crawling it's way towards them must be a real sight for sore eyes. Great channel!

Coming back to some of the earlier project videos just to refresh my memory of how much this car has gone through (and how many hoops y'all have jumped through to get it as far as it is) and I just now kind of put it together that the Golden Nugget's tenure out in the wilderness not only predates my existence, it predates the existence of my parents' relationship with eachother. When he last drove that thing, my mother was younger than my niece is now. Simply mind-blowing.

So, I found one of your videos (the one when you get the LJ out) and have been following it through everything. Seeing Paul do so much mech work to Robbie and the body work...man...very nice! I noticed that Ed's truck said that he served in Korea. I would like to know more about Ed...I was stationed in South Korea in 2000, and deployed there in 2007, and have always had a special place in my heart and mind for those vets who were there. (I was an AMMO Troop in the USAF, 1997-2017 Retired). Thank you for doing all of this for him, and bringing us on the journey! Putting good into this world is what we all should strive for!

40 years is the magic number, in high school my uncle told me if I could get my great grandpas old willys running that I could have it. It had sat out in the back of his lot for 40 years, it had a tree growing up through a hole in the floor board and out the windows. I cut that tree out and found it had sunk down to the axles so we hooked my XJ to it and gave it a few pulls until it rocked up out of its grave. It has one of those fold down ball hitch things on it so we connected it to the XJ and towed it 10 miles to my metal shop class on old rotten tires. Quick fluid change, replaced spark plugs and wires, drained and cleaned out the fuel tank, tossed a battery in it and it fired right up! I know I’m a little late to the party but I’m catching up on your videos and thought my willys story might be a relatable one to tell here haha
