Don’t rush it. Get it done right. Reveal it when it’s complete!

I don't think it's a good idea to take it to Houston. To achieve greatness it takes time. I'd rather see it finished properly than to see it rushed and then disassembled to finish again. Just my opinion though.

Definitely do not give him a deadline on that car Matt. Let him finish the full car before driving it anywhere. Let the man work

Don't bring the Cuda out early, be patient and let it be finished before you reveal it. No point to bring it out early

In this episode we will see how many raccoons it takes to stop a 50cal.

Don’t do the whole “make it drivable” thing. Just get the project all the way done with maybe some test runs here and there. I can see the impatience building in Matt’s Head, but don’t do it!

I agree with everyone else. Let Brandon finish the car. Too much pressure and things will go wrong. Take the time to do it right and then show it to the world when it is done!

I think I'm for keeping the first public reveal as a completely finished car.

I think I would just let them finish the car properly and wait! But that's just me.

Matt, you need to leave Muscle Rod Shop alone and let them make the Cuda correctly. Maybe have them set for Cleetus and Cars 2022 Houston. I dont want it to break or break down, let them do the things they do.

Honestly these guys are killing it this is more work than most people realize and to see how far they have come in a few months is insane

Leave the "Cummins Cuda" with Brandon until it's completely finished. You will regret it if you don't.

Thanks for the new trash panda, Matt! lol (Actually, plenty of room here, welcome Rocky!)

It would be a lot cooler to do a big reveal when the Cuda is complete rather than showing off an unfinished project.

those guys building that cuda are literal car wizards..

Brandon's look when Matt said "mostly Tony" was awesome. The look of guys that have become good friends and dig on each other for the h*ll of it.

I feel bad for brandon… just let an artist take his time.

Mere on her 3rd glass: F these damn birds. I can have someone buy eggs.

Matt, dang son! You're such a nice guy, so nice no one tells you no. Someone needs to tell you no just once. That's such a tight, killer deadline for the CUDDINS.

This cuda is such a insane project that takes alot of time and skill and tons of thinking and redoing work you have done 5 times Matt you need to let him take his sweet time on that mysterious beast that nobody has ever built before lol

“Black chicken was massacred over here and we don’t discriminate so a white chicken was killed here” lmao 😂

Matt: Hey Brandon can we make he Cuda drivable I can take to Houston and break it, causing you twice as much work?

Matt - "Do YOU know what the punishment is for murdering a chicken?" Racoon - "..." Demo - "LOSING YOUR NUTS! TELL HIM DAD!" 🤣

It's a REALLY BAD IDEA to rush Brandon into this deadline Matt. Just going to screw up something.

Come on Matt man. Don't take the car until its done... I kinda feel bad for Brandon. I know its your car, but its HIS project. You're basically forcing him to give it to you to "mess it up" then you bring it back like " here bud, finish it". Im not really feelin it myself.

Hey Matt! So in some zoo habitats that are enclosed with fencing the fence actually folds in at the bottom and runs a few feet away from the fencing, this is then covered with dirt. This stops animals, like wolves, from coming up to the edge of the fence and digging under (think of it as the fencing making the letter L but the bottom of the L is under covered with dirt). Although it would be a lot of work you could do the same idea but with the extra fencing pointing out of your chickens area to prevent things from digging and getting into it. With racoons they will probably also just try climbing over the fence, but it would at least prevent foxes and such and deter racoons.

The look on the face of the raccoon! "I effed up, didn't I?" Y'all need to fly the other Matt (Winder Towing) down from Hurricane to do a cameo and design a suspension system for the 'cuda. The one he did for the Morrvair is amazing.

Matt describing the Great Chicken Massacre of 21 while Mere stands in the back ground, wine in hand completely uninthused about it all was prolly my favorite part of the video! 14:56

Not gonna lie, I think it would be cooler for the Cuda to be finished before going to a cleetus and cars. I personally think Matt should wait until the Cuda is finished 100% and then take it to a cleetus and cars. I feel it would make the show of the Cuda be more impressive.

There's no way this thing is going to be done by October ... no way 😜

"Took care of the Raccoon" *Happy flamethrower noises*

"they're in chicken heaven with chicken Jesus" -Matt and Mere 2021 🤣

16:40 “their with chicken Jesus right now” are you talking about the almighty Colonel Sanders Matt?

"You know what the punishment is?" (Cut to Demo Ranch intro animation)

Wait. Didn't you just get a Ma-Deuce? Raccoons LOVE Ma Deuce's! Everyone knows that...

Matt: "You know what the punishment is for killing a chicken?" Me, remembering it's Friday: "Dear God."

"Maybe we should just put a 440 in it" Brandon: look of utter disgust and hate

I absolutely love this build.cant wait for the final product. You all are killin it.

The racoon was the scapegoat that got caught. I'm thinking that Matt's got a Chupacabra issue.

I mentioned this when you were building the coop, when you put up a fence for chickens bury the fence about a foot down or predators will dig under. We've had animals try to dig under ours but never come close to succeeding.

The raccoon looked cute until it tried to eat Matt's hand. o_0

We replaced the chicken wire on the coop with hardware cloth and that fixed it permanently. Plus an automatic door on a timer for the chickens helps with complacency.

"we don't discriminate here so a white chicken was also massacred"

I was literally just complaining that I had nothing to watch and the notification saved me!

"Oh hey, look free chickens" *hears the sound of a golden Desert eagle being loaded

G’day Off the Ranch Matt Meredith & Co ;-) Perhaps you could take the El Chromeino BarraCuda on a trailer as work in progress exhibit, so people can draw on it suggestions, then bring it back for completion? Then you can break it, and ding all the completed panels too! And Meredith can do more circle work with it? With many source blessings with truth clarity love light laughter joy fun play creativity adventures and may peace be with you all! Victoria Australia xoxo

Remembering to close the coop door is a pain...we lost a few because of that (bobcats). You should get an automatic closing door for the chicken house (Omlet brand is good). It would go on the actual house not the run. Program it to open at dawn and close at dusk. It might take a little bit for them to get used to going in and out of the house instead of the run, but it would further your chicken house automation.

Prime suspects for chicken killer: 1. A weasel. 2. Demo Dog. 3. Doughnut Operator.

Matt gets home and the raccoon is sitting in the driveway. 😂😂😂😂

It's fun to watch the banter between Matt and the muscle rod shop guys.

Oh man...I wish I had the dough to do a project like this. It's awesome!

"Hey Mere, if you're watching this......." She's not watching this.

Yup this is why Matt just got a 50 cal machine gun! Can a racoon stop a 50 cal!🤣🤣🤣

And Matt will just tear it all up! "Don't tell Mere!" 🤣🤣🇺🇲💯👍👊

I reckon that Racoon would have loved to have been part of a Ma Deuce demonstration 👍🏻

When the cage opens at the end I thought "PULL" !

When that raccoon started running I was really wating for that sound of the charging handle of the new .50 pewpew...

Steering wheel? Just use vice grips! 🤣 had me rolling

A custom wheel that is a couple welded together vice-grips... AWESOME

I would’ve laughed so hard if a pew pew just started to come into frame at the very end 😂 😂 😂

I think that raccoon should have been rehomed in raccoon heaven.

18:41 Matt with his 1911 blaw blawww blaawww lmao is what I thought was going to happen

"Billet oil pan"- can see the weld marks meaning more than 1 piece of starting material ie. not billet

You were nicer than I would've been to that raccoon for eating my animals. Would've gave em the pew pew.

The hockey stick bill board with the engine displacement would be cool

5:40 That look of "Are you f*cking kidding me?"

Very sporting of Matt to give the racoon a head start. "Welcome to Demolition Ranch!"

Looking forward to Matt’s new salad dressing channel, Ranch Ranch.

Leave the guys alone so, they can do their thing!

Well 1 of my 2 favorite builds on the KZfaqs is done. B is for builds Lamborghini Jumpacon had its first race. Now all I have left is the Demo Cuda! Probably the most ambitious build I have ever seen ever ever ever. I cant wait to see this done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As a automotive body technician, all I have to say is, Wow! The way the can create body lines and contours on the quarter panels is amazing! Seriously better than most manufacturers out there.. just saying!

Any mechanic can see the unbelieve amount of uncomfortability brandons showing, its when you agree to something your pretty sure aint gonna happen the way its planned😅 shell buff out😂 send it!

Go with the black chrome for the emblem. It will stand out just fine still.

Thanks for not killin it bro. He's just doing what he has to do. Good man

I love how Mere rolls up to the chicken coop with wine. She is ready catch whatever getting those chickens.

When are you gonna start making shirts for Apache rifleworks

I managed to piss off West Coast Customs guys when I told them they were amateur compared to MuscleRodshop.

Meredith taking a swig of wine every time Matt talks about the great chicken massacre of 2021 really made this video more enjoyable...

Please don't rush this unique build. Like most here saying, everyone would love to see it fully finished.

Matt, you need to throw some serious love and respect at everyone involved, more so to Brandon! This has obviously NEVER EXISTED till a few months ago. Even the big automotive manufacturers take years designing vehicles. Brandon is straight killing it with that thing@ not to mention all the other stuff he has to do for work.♥️🤍💙

Well I wasn’t WANTING another T-shirt subscription BUT that flag is sick

I hope you moved that racoon more than 8 miles away. I have had them come back if you don't move them far away.

"I want it to look stock" Hahahahhah! Right!

not getting my alerts again, and your so right about that don't see 12 valves like that often love the compound turbos

Next demo ranch video; “HOW many RACCOONS to STOP a 50 CAL!?”

brandon needs to be on this channel more

Can't wait to get started on the billet emblem!

Jeez that is a BIIIIIIG 'cuda! Just glad you didn't hurt the racoon. Good on ya Matt 👍

You should update the intro to include the 5 ton since the humvee is gone

Was over watching cleetus race is "stock" Ford when I got this 👍🏻

Rotate the second turbo 90 degrees up, so the intake is straight up, and the output just needs a 180 to go into the first turbo

The raccoon was so cute when you asked it if it knew the punishment and it just looked at you like it understood you perfectly

I was thinking after seeing the Racoon so this is how Matt goes out. All those pew pew's and other crazy experiments and a pissed of racoon is what did him in...🤣🤣

When you said "all factory" you looked like you were sniffing the body so I thought you said "olfactory".

Love how’s meres just drinking wine

Matt! As per the issue with the giant exhaust coming off the second turbo, is it possible to make the tubes not circular as long as the cross-sectional area is basically the same? Logically, the resistance through a circular pipe should be the same as a rectangular pipe with the same cross sectional area, right? Perhaps this would be something to experiment with using a wind speed sensor and a leaf blower. If they resistance is the same, you could make the tubes rectangle to swoop around or go between stuff, then split off and return to circular tubes once there’s enough clearance

A simple solution: Stop leaving out a buffet for raccoons. They enjoy eating chicken as much as humans do.

Matt u need to do a building playlist of all the parts of the cuda so that if someone trys to make car alongside u they can

I know Brandon doesn't like the idea but most vehicles at Cleetus and cars are NOT finished lol (and almost ALL of Cleetus's cars don't have hoods). However it would be an AMAZING marketing opportunity and you know how excited Cleetus is going to be to see you or Brandon ripping that cuda on the burnout pad. As for the chickens it may be time to hook up an electric current to the outer fence that has the switch on the main gate coming in. You open the gate and the current turns off. Use 120 from the house.

I think you need that Cuda somewhere in the details of the paintjob, like down the door or on the fenders.
