Mullet-Car Thrash Battle! (Jeep Wins) - Roadkill Ep. 49

Roadkill is powered by Dodge, which honestly has nothing to do with us needlessly destroying a Chevy and a Ford in this episode. It’s the mullet-car showdown, a battle of dirt-cheap beaters: an SN95 Mustang V-6 and a third-gen Camaro with a 305 that’s so gutless it might as well be a V-6. Don’t worry, neither one of these junkers was worth saving, but we prove that a couple of guys with some useless cars can have a whole lot of fun throwing caution to the wind in full-thrash mode on an off-road racetrack. Good air! And when parts finally fall out of the engines, Freiburger’s Jeep comes out to put the mullet cars out of their misery. Enjoy this throwback to the early days of Roadkill: It’s just like the van vs. wagon thrash battle (Episode 6) and the cop car shootout (Episode 12).

this time on Road Kill your gonna loath
us for what we do these cars unless of
course you didn't have a mullet in the
nineties I kinda did
the plan was I was supposed to go get a
mustang to do a shootout with Finnegan in the Camaro I
failed to get a Mustang yesterday cuz I
drove all the way down and the guy had a
good car but didn't have a pink slip for
it we have a Camaro which I haven't seen at
all yet
regular 3rd gen sounds not to bad oh yes it does this isn't as bad as what you
claimed just wait really just wait it
sounds like it's running on six that's
generous really like five and a half got
and it might have been at one time it's
not right now via eight in this case IRS
doesn't stand for rally sport it stands
for really stupid purchase I'm guessing
it's a 305 you have any idea no that's
normal Road Kill come look at the back of this oh that's
bad its plywood dude yes you really
can't appreciate it until you see what
he's done here I believe that is birch
veneer
dude it's undentable oh ok that has a little give to it
this part
concrete hard this is bad but is it as
bad as the jeep rod it's worse because
it's not even stylish dude step back and squint picture yourself with a mullet 91 your in Miami yeah this was cool
see if we get the t-top off before we leave yeah
we can't drive this with the t tops are much better now I
can escape a lot easier
now it's look you got your money back I
hope it doesn't rain I'm kinda hoping it does do you have a broom did you break I got to admit with the t tops off I'm being
transported back to 1991 let's go cruising
that's wide open still wide open still wide open it's slow
soaked myself that backfired on me completely karma is a mofo this is annoying I don't even wanna know what this is all
my hand right here
see what damage we did this thing has every
element that all third gens have a bad
rap for it is disgusting but it already
took a good beating I figured I was
gonna break in on that jump but I
neither jumped nor broke it but we did
do pretty good donuts that back fired on me when I got
completely hosed down with mud this car is
pretty trashy dirty we really want to
revisit the nineties you know when
mullets were in style and Freiburger really wants to
crash a Mustang into a Camaro that's what
we're gonna do tomorrow
last night when we wrapped up with that
Camaro Finnegan had found a Mustang for
sale and sent me to go get it
this mustang is terrible finnegan made
us get a v-6 because the Camaro's only
running on six cylinders and you
probably can't tell but the seat is
stuck all the way forward my knees are
in the dashboard and I'm like eight
inches from the air bag though then
again picked this i think im gonna make
him drive it
sn95 college girl car that's what this
is bad paint you did this to me did you do all this on the way here yeah the car was
so nice that I wanted to take the edge off so
I wouldn't feel bad about wrecking no
it was like this
it's got cobra wheels on it kinda they go
well with the team do I need rubber gloves for this it smells like fungus it's good
right that'll buff out the customization
isn't where I'd like it to be I won't
feel bad about whatever happens to this
car you know what the benefits of having
no styling characteristics like the
Camaro though yeah part caves in no
self-respecting man picks this car up and
goes yeah this is what I want to drive
everyday so after we drive this in anger will flip a coin I think we have
to go run the same route we did with the
Camaro same action with you driving
and then we'll decide who gets each car
by flipping a coin are you that short or
the seat not move doesn't move I didn't
mention that feature I can't drive this what is this is this our stash that's what I'm saying
it's terrible do the windows work I'm not finish ripping that I don't work
actually rather good
did you buy this from a male stripper I don't want to touch that either ok worst mustang ever
I don't think this will accelerate fast enough to jump floor it now
there's not as much water as yesterday this is not bad
the train track is good you didn't hit the good puddle hit the
railroad track was pretty harsh
airbag risk nice just tapped it if you
win the coin toss you get the pic which
car you're driving yeah I don't want either one just so you know I'm not
gonna cheat there's there's two sides to
that coin it's ok who's calling it ok
to throw up in the air do not slide
across I don't know what it is I'm bouncing it around ready no not call it. heads I'll take the mustang I'm
calling I get to fix the seat that is
stuck all the way forward and we gotta
to get rid of the air bags I'm not helping you
with any of that so finally we are in
these two pieces of junk headed out to
our road trip to go out to the race
track we're just out having fun now
sorry I didn't see you there not caring if
the greatest thing ever I'm a just scuff
his vehicle that was me getting
rear-ended by finnegan
he has the luxury of doing that 'cause there's
no air bags in that car where I do have
air bags so it can go bad go baby go
on the road again and again finnegan seems set to ruin my car and his before we
even get there by the way that we never
fixed the seat in this car my knees are
physically touching the dash ready for
impact in 32 wow he failed forgot to
hit Dave
I'm giving tracks at five times
six seven nine now I'm in front of him I'm gonna get rear ended
you afraid your airbag is gonna go off yes I am I want the airbag to go up and knock
me out so I don't have to look at the
tail lights on that Camaro anymore
lightning reflexes
solid was that I had you that time
you just hit me with a poisonous mushroom yes I did so I was on the freeway cruising along
no problem until I realized this thing
starts pinging at any throttle position then
it starts to knock then it starts to
lose power that I pull off the freeway
and it dies and now it won't start at
all
that wasn't very impressive he couldv'e done better than that I didn't want to
offend you if something was truely really wrong
with your car i win
was pretty weak anyone really yeah i win
camaro wins by attrition there's a
chance it'll cool off and fire up but
probably not there's a chance it won't so two things then a we get a
tow strap and we drag this to its
ultimate place of death two my favorite
pizza place ever is across the street
we just go there call it a day and try to fire it up then yeah let it cool and drink some
beer worry about it later ok that's a plan maybe
they'll get impounded while we're gone
last night I was convinced that the
Mustang was completely exploded but
itself healed this morning the thing runs
and so today is the day of demolition ok
ready cross my fingers
knocking no not a bit
self heal let's go it's like new
well today is the day of reckoning we're
going to make sure that these non
classic pieces of crap
nobody ever again ok
kudies no one will miss this car trust me
I can't believe this thing is running again I will be happy to never again on public roads can we get rid of my airbag first thing I just live in fear dead car walking
this thing is pinging it's brains out it's also smoking now a little bit let find a gas station let it rest get some gas
it just died you should've let me blow it up this thing is build smoke
look at all the smoke coming out of the dip stick tube oil everywhere
my thought is we're not that far so yeah
just push me there and hopefully will
cool down we can have fun later I'm down with that hang on to your tightly whites
and we're good all that torque power performance go camaro go camaro go
made it out here to Glen Helen Raceway is there going to be any racing
thing the only way we're racing is against
the iPhone I think thanks to you and
your car I know that's a bummer but I
was so dedicated to wanting to get rid
of the air bags and the Mustang that I
brought this this is my plan is to put
this right in front of the steering
wheel and see if we can shoot it through
the rear window and then we're also
gonna have the Camaro part behind it and
see if we can get through the Mustang
rear window and the Camaro rear window
man now we broke something now you have to clean that up
there we go Finnegan got the column rigged to blow it's on me to set up the aim and angle of the dangle on
this ball what's your confidence level
I'm freaked out I'm going to hide behind the engine
I'm gonna call my shot ready gone right
there
ok I think the odds of it not playing
ping pong in the car is slim to none which is why I'm
hiding behind the engine block and the
radiator what are the odds that it
actually ricochets back this direction
as opposed to launches over there though
good are you really gonna stand there no
I'm gonna ya gonna move everybody ready why I have to be
the guy down here this is scary it is
I thought it broke the glass bummer I breath it nine pound ball is not the one to use is that like poisonous I breath it wasn't good
ok let's go racing
can't believe I agreed to any of this this is a first gear racetrack
actually works pretty good see they designed cars for this
oh you have to let me drive
you should not yet oh yeah you got a break it first we go
yeah yeah this is actually
get some this is the bad one
you should try this man that's good
that was awesome this thing is every bit a trophy truck but it is
overheating
think it'll run the temp gauge says 100 your fine
i love my car yeah
this is the worst best Camaro ever
nice turn
that was worth it damage report there's no damage ok maybe a little
might be a little warmer this time it could be I don't
open until just explode my face
best day at work ever yeah you want to go four wheel for distance
yeah
that hurt hows your back probably like yours but it still runs drive it right now let's take the door off the
Mustang I've
always wondered when you see in the
movies there's a door open and a car
comes by and hit the door just comes off
I don't think that's real so we need to
try that out I don't think that's real
where you going I want you to do this I want you to go out there and hit the pace car
that was destructive but the door is still on the car it's virtually back to the way it was what happened here nothing
well we're pretty much done for the day we still have a running car was not our plan
so we're going to go head do donuts until hopefully the engine breaks then we break out the secret weapon
it's like nails on a chalkboard it's pretty awful
it's running out of gas this thing needs to go away simple for it's lack of throttle
I see alot of white smoke tire smoke what do you want to do for dinner well I think we should put something on the gas pedal and get out and seethe glory of what's happening right now
whoa whoa
never done this before purposely just tried to blow a motor let's get the secret weapon yeah good idea
how did I do it was good third gen owners everywhere
live it
