Homemade Amphibious Vehicle Fails! Scrapyard Kings Episode 3

Jul 02, 2025
Welcome again to

episode

three of Scrapyard Kings. Now, if you are new here, I have a question. What happens to you? Where have you been? You are missing a lot of action. Then, before entering this

episode

, return and see episode 1 and two because many things are happening and you will not want to lose anything. Now, with this said, let's enter the action. Previously in Kings Scapyard. In our first challenge, the teams were pushed to their limits through butcher shop and

vehicle

breakdowns. The Newton team exceeded the obstacles to claim victory, but not without any drama. Do not touch that bond.

Don't touch that. No. No. If our teams left with something, now they know what is needed to become the Scapyard Kings. Knights, welcome to challenge number two, sink or swim. The objective of this challenge is to build a

vehicle

that can enter the water on this ramp, reach the end of the pond, collect a package and then return. So, said, traction will be a problem. You have to discover the flotation and you will have to discover the propulsion. Now, for the propulsion part, we have decided to give it a $ 1,000 budget to reach the market or where necessary to find some type of outboard engine, whatever you want to do, $ 1,000.

But keep in mind that you should use your original vehicle. I don't care how much you use, as long as most are still there. Not only does container tags take them on boats. I know we probably think about that, but I want to see what they think of. What occurred to you in the first challenge literally flew minds. The fact that I have done everything in such a short time. But I have a question for the garage of 5:00. Oh boy. You are from Michigan, right? Yes. Many lakes up there. Montones More lakes than straw bundles. Yes.

Well. So, this could be in your alley. I hope so. Fleets better than is loaded. So, basically what will happen is that the three teams will go at the same time. It will be another type of face to face. And essentially, it is the one who returns to the shore first or faster, right? I am not 100% sure that all vehicles can get out of the water, but we hope you can think of something that exceeds all our expectations. Any questions? When do we start? You start right now. Sparks is worried that they get out of the water.

I'm worried that this floats in the water. I mean, it is a square body of 3/4 tons. Look at this. It's like Donkey Kong in this. Each barrel can contain a value of about 300 lb of weight. And so, with the truck that weighs around 6,000 lb, it needs many barrels and then must make the thing move. And then you must have some kind of force that pushes it through water. You can't use wheels and tires. They are not going to do anything in the water. And then you only have some options. You could make an external engine. You could make an air boat.
Or you could tie a water motorcycle to the back. Look at these. Yes. Now, here is the deal. Well. You take them from a water motorcycle museum. Hey, by hand. Team Mutiny has a big and heavy problem. They need to float and maneuver their heavy body of Chevy Square. To do this, they have chosen to add more than 30 barrels and two reference motorcycles mounted on the rear to advance in challenge two. Will this Chevy truck sink like a rock or float beyond its competition to victory? The second day is the challenge of water, which I think is probably more excited.
Um, the most important thing you know after seeing what the challenge would be where we had to go was how we crossed this lake. I found all this boat with a level of 200 horses that worked perfectly. Yes. Then, I talked to him and, as if he were in the speaker, and he was trying to speak with a professional voice and was talking about being the executive producer of a television program and, as suddenly, I was very interested in helping us and, therefore, I said: "Is there any possible way to deliver this boat?" And he was like, "Yes, I could probably be there as in 15 minutes." And we think, "it's fine." But then, at that time, we think: "We still have no money." Oh friend.
Oh my God. Oh, that's fun. Awesome. That is, can you tear us for us? Awesome. We will have to put some gas on it. Alright. Yes, we will get gas. While saying, man, we are fine. However, we will begin. He does it. It works very well. 45 on the lake, man. What do you think will push a jeep in flotillas? Well. It won't do much when you get sinking. It is pos. You're right. You're right. But it will look great down. I know how to work on those, just to know. No, you don't. Hey, we might need to borrow it.
Garage 5:00 was with an unconventional bor design in Challenge One, but for challenge two, they stick to the basics and turn their jeep into a boat with an external engine and external barrels mounted on the rear for the flotation. If the outside the table works, this could drive them to the finish line, but requires detailed manufacturing to mount the engine. Will its construction end in time for the challenge? We will discover it. I want to look at it. Very good, guys. Let's float a blazer very soon. And I know that nothing happens because nothing is happening, but if you remember for our first challenge, we did nothing for approximately 8 hours.
Well, we did a lot, but it didn't seem much. And in the last two hours, everything joined and we had it in the bag before cheating and winning. Do not touch that bond. Don't touch that. No. No. before the other team cheated and won. We have a fairly good plan about what we want to do. We are going to wear a snow motorcycle to boost this. Then, I found a snow motorcycle in Riby, Idaho in the market. And I'm going to go and get it with the boys while my team stays and prepares everything for when we return.
We are riding a snow motorcycle. We are riding these stainless steel barrels to the sides. We are going to float this. Let's win. The Leighton team feels the heat of losing the challenge one, but they are sure that their snow motorcycle conversion will provide a victory for the two challenge. This design uses two large metal drums for float, which reduces the manufacturing time, but its snow motorcycle mounted on the rear for thrust is not proven. Will your snow motorcycle barge break with a wind or leave them dead in the water? Time will say it. The three teams have a similar design to float their vehicle.
Great tanks supported by a metal frame. The big difference is in the way they drive them. 5:00 is the only one that uses a real external engine. Everyone has potential, but I thought that 5:00 has the advantage here. The big problem is that the three teams need to find support beams and weld a frame in 10 hours. It is sure to say that it will be close. It does not need to take a great load because it is floating. It is literally the weight. You just have to stay together. And we can even put a trinquet for the road, you know, if there is heavy, you know, because the weight is far behind.
Yes. Yes. Just making sure we got the right victory. How to make sure they are difficult and that they are very tight for the trailer because they are generally as if we will use the winch to establish more or less things like that. Ratchet will tie it. We get there, you know, they are also only 650. Fortunately, they will not have a ton of power. You know, we did such a good job by building the forks and the headland in Challenge one that we just used everything again for the number two challenge for our water motorcycles. Not only can we collect the jet skiis so that we can lead to water, but then lower them when the time comes to go.
I just have an idea how we are going to direct everything. I was even very dumb. You said that linking the direction that does the bar placed a set of bars and link that could be stopped on the back of the bed that directs it. Well, I think they are identical, you could link them in the unit. Yes. You know, you could put a rod between the bar between and then literally take a bar and a bar of the bar. Oh no. I think someone sits in one. Someone will have to be in the taxi. Yes.
Drive and drive. I don't mind being in the taxi. I can swim. To say that the water did not smell very well. Yes. When are I supposed to tell everyone that I can't swim? Is it now? Is it now? Yes. Well. We will put an escape hatch at the top of the cabin for the admiral. Yes. Yes. Oh, baby. Friend, has light pods. I know. I know. I know. This will be perfect. Come on. So, it seems that we have the trick code with this boat engine. The problem is that we cannot make it damage. One two three.
What chang spark plug or something? As, it only has too much compression. We can ride it. We should probably work to mount it. I mean, we should be able to start. That should not be a problem. Hey, I like that door. That door. Screw that door. Um, then, what do you think? What do you think was the problem? UM, incoming. No, incoming. Did he run? No, we believe we flood it. Possibly flooded it. Throw would throw a plug and see how it looks. It's super, it's super easy to achieve. It's like right in the front. Um that and then pull the battery.
Get the battery in the battery charger. I say we have new batteries. Well. We can also get it out of the trailer. Yes. And there are new beds and new batteries come. No, we leave it in the trailer. Well. Leave it in the trailer. Get only in case we have to get something. We do not want to deactivate it from the boat until we are ready to screw it here. Well. Um is fine. Alright. We will start with that. See! See! See. We are wasting a long time at this time in this stupid engine and I hope this does not bite us in the ass.
So, I'm curious. I have Shanghide because I don't know what particular reason, but I got Shanghide. You will probably need some, hopefully, you would not want any physical work. You are not going to lift it. We are raising a snow motorcycle in the bed of the truck. No one told me we were going to the snow motorcycle. What kind of stone invoice is it? Better not be bombing. No, it's Polaris 400. Should we be Dippers? Yes, come on. Is it executed? They said it. I already paid it for the view without being seen. He is on the boy's entrance path.
He is not at home. It looks like a good business. I thought you were doing a construction. I didn't think we were going to be snow. We are going to sail. Have you never seen a propulsion of a boat driven by a snow motorcycle? Yes, we have many of them in Canada. It is quite common. We are going to fish with them. Oh, it will work perfect. I tell you what could possibly go wrong. Oh, there she is. Oh look at that. In his brilliant glory. In his brilliant glory. Hey, we are here to buy the snow motorcycle.
I mean, I saw it a little view and look perfect. It seems that you can't wait to be in the water. And of little faith. Um, I'm curious about something. Yes, if you start. Look at this. Oh, that's perfect. I will need some shots. Drowning. Is that starts? Well, there is one thing we know with certainty. The extraction cable works in it. He does it. I tell you what, I know what's wrong with. Look that. I have no gas. Look, look at this. They got out of this. Look that. Hey, all you need to do is start.
There are no brakes. Court! Well, we are out of here. With a little luck. Okay, my friend. I just moved from the advantage of the equipment to the mechanics of water motorcycles. Oh look. It is gas from the Reagan administration. The plan is to take both water motorcycles on the back of that truck in the trailer so that they can push the truck. It will only press around 10,000 pounds of Chevy Vintage, although they usually only have to push 200 lb with a vintage fiberglass. So, uh, we really can't fail. There is no way we can go wrong here.
Starting to rain, so I really need a boat very soon. I don't like working in Jet Skiis. It is like a motorcycle inside a fiberglass thing full of water and oil, and cannot get any part for them. So, I hope this goes very badly. We need to eliminate the UH front bumper. Yes. Be careful with that. Do not break the drill. Friend, we have to mount the outboard. Um we have to make it float. We are going to build a frame abroad and have all our longitudinal barrels. So, basically, we have to build a cross field here, a crossbar here and a crossbar on the back. and then build two individual frames on each side.
And then, while we do that, we also have to build some type of assembly for the outside the table. So, there is a lot of work to do today. A lot of fabulous work. A lot of fabulous work. At this point, we have a lot to do. So, it's really or never. Uh, if we can't start the engine, we are dead in the water. We will have to solve something else. Here, where is that starting fluid? Oh, should be there down. Oh yes. He who says starting fluid. Yes. That thing sounds crispy. Yes. We are sitting there and we are like, why is fuel lines being obtained?
Someone closed the fuel line. I like it. Very good, we came back. Now we have our Blazer propulsion system. Hillbilly. Hillbilly Deluxe. Look that. He even stacked ours, I tell you what, I can't wait until all these things are together. It will be. She is a Clark. Oh, cut the bumper for the battery. MHM Oh, that's so beautiful. I love everything. What are you goingTo hang that snow motorcycle there and simply place the track in the water? Yes. Thus. Simply put it and only bite. Yes. Good idea. I would do that. Good. Are you going to put a helm on this?
No, it will be the helm. Let's do it a twin. So, let's park the skis. The skis will be stationary. The force of pressure. Yes. So, as you advance, I have to hear, you know what? You want to go to the left. We need to weld well to get that. You know, you can't do that because you will have something that will have to have something that falls when you go up and on your crest that will not dig on the earth. Yes. It is a snow bill. Nothing will hurt. Did you know? 10 more hours. 10 more hours and you will see.
I like it. Did you need much more Hillbilly? Hey? So, I am disconnecting the cables at this time to direct and accelerate and other things. UM, we will prepare to take this engine from the boat platform. They are going to make a new handkerchief in the Jeep and that is where we are going to place it there. Here we go. I have to make a cup of relief there. Hey, do you know what time it is? It is time to verify and see how everyone is in their UH Fregner swimming challenge. So, the team has two water motorcycles.
Like the old fresh school, jet motorcycles. The five o'clock team has a boat and the UH Robbie Leighton team has a snow motorcycle. So, that is what their extra money spent. Let's see how they will incorporate them into their constructions and how they think it will help you cross this pond. Very good, Robbie Leighton also seems to have these two giant barrels. Who knows what he is doing with them? What do you find there, Sir Robbie? We find some thousandgalon tanks to move a lot of water and carry a lot of weight in our Blazer Pontón.
Where are you going to say it? To the sides. Sides Do you already have a mounting place? No. Well, more or less. We have a bar. These have oil in them and we don't want to die. So, we are discovering whether we want to weld them or not. That is probably a good idea. Yes. And then the old snow motorcycle. Are you going to raise it on your back? Tile at the top. Let the track fall in the water and then see. Are you going to have someone on the back? Yes. Do you have a pair of sprains from the American flag to use or what?
We will need them. You can help us. That would be incredible. We'll see. We will take a Walmart race later. We'll see. Thank you. We would like I like what I see. Let's see 5:00 in the store. Around 5:00 trip. Oh, we say buy. I really have to change doing that. Hey, the boys have taken the convertible jeep, they put some wings. So, it is almost ready for the flight challenge. I just say. Double use. Yes. And are you going to put what? Three barrels below each on each channel here. Then I have four three. Yes, we will try to get 20 to 25 barrels in this thing. 20 to 25.
I was 12 years old. 2025 will definitely float. I thought I would float with 12. Therefore, there are 450 450 pounds per barrel if they are 99% submerged. Well. A barrel holds 450 pounds. If 99% immersed. Yes. 99% submerged. 450 lb. And if you want it in half, there are 2 Science 250. Science. We do not look in Google. We only know. We only know. We did a lot on Google last night and last night. And the mutinio of the team here, as I told you, has these really great water motorcycles. And the plan of how it looks, they will put it here again. But I should probably ask that man right there in that beautiful western welding jacket.
Man, I'm keeping this. You look perfect. He does it. Very thinning about you. Alright. What is the game plan? So, we are going to make a frame directly from the truck frame. 50 barrels around him. 50 barrels. That is what we believe will need. Well. Uh and I hope he doesn't sink. And that goes just on. We need two rows. Yes. Two spaced rows. Maybe one third up just in case. We'll see. I like that. Well, that's the plan. I like it. I will not take longer because you are time to creak. Yes, good idea, friend. I like it.
You are creative. I like the weather to be coming. It is better that these guys move. That's good. That's good. When our boat is in the water, that will be the cry of our people. Everything entered this tube. Yes. But then, why does it go out? Where is this where this is going? Hey, the hero has a claim. Your claim is what is my claim? You know everything about this. If you can start this in 8 minutes, I will give you a cheese hamburger. We have no gas in the filter. But he has been sucking very strong there trying to cross a little.
Where is your fuel? Well, it's halfway. Yes. Where is your fuel can? Behind you on the floor. But we have to mix it. So, you don't need to mix it. Where is a bottle? Here. Right here. Do you want the air filter off, boss? No, it doesn't matter. Hey, that was my Gatorade. Well, you get another one. You can't start in 8 minutes. You owe me a Gatorade. I think this is going to like lemon lime. Could. Listen, that's not cheap. Oh, that should explode. Here we go. Give it a bit of accelerator. Oh, do not tremble your hand.
Comes. Do you see the fuel that enters the bowl? If it is sucking fuel and the diaphragm does not screw the carabero if it is yes. Alright. But that, I say that I keep that open because there is a reason why there is a primer bomb in that. Hey, there is a reason why there is a primer bomb because you don't like to start. Yes. Simply throw the fuel there. Or get a jet bottle and simply throw some fuel. You understood it. We are currently in a storm. That man is a hurricane. We are in the heat of this thing.
I mean, we are building this boat. This blazer boat driven by a snow motorcycle. And what do you know? Good climate of old Idaho. We have a wind storm. Uhoh. Should we start moving welders? A little, but we want to do that when we have plugs. Yes. Due to the rain, we are using this time to turn the collectors because it is fun and not crucial at all, but it is fun. And then, once the rain stops, we can save safely again. We can take our frames in the truck, climb our barrels underneath and then discover how we are going to mount two reaction motorcycles on the back, which is something that has probably never done before.
I doubt that someone has made an reverse car with two water motorcycles in an 81 Chevy Square body. So, we are only forging a new land here. Literally, in reality, we move away from our truck so that our entire well would not be flooded. So, it is the other way around. Oh, I thought, will take eternity. Let me let me save these screws for later. The flat side cannot be used. Yes friend. roller. They are all quite miserable and will probably call it for half an hour. They said we can continue working. Uhuh. Uh, but they will only call him and then we would begin in the morning, they all dried.
These teams look quite worn. Then, we will give you 30 minutes to finish and then we will do the right thing stopping the clock and return in the morning to give them two more hours to finish. But I will be honest, I still don't know if it's going to be enough time. Then, tomorrow we will go to the welding supports. Our tanks will go here and we will be floating. We will be floating in a lake. We have 99 problems. Think that it will not be one of them. No, we are not going to sink. We may not go.
We may not come back, but we don't sink. Yes, I am intelligent all the time. Relist that back. Relist that back. You don't talk to me. It makes it more difficult. There is a siren, guys. We have to leave the tools. That's all. Yes, we did everything we could do in this climate. Tomorrow we have 2 hours before the competition begins and I do not think that any of us is close to finishing. But what are you doing? I can't control the weather. Next time in Scrapyard Kings. Can the equipment make their trucks float or be dead in the water?
