🚀 Wheelie Popping UFO Trike Build (VW Powered) | Ian Roussel Full Custom Garage What happens when Ian Roussel of Full Custom Garage builds a wheelie-popping UFO trike powered by a VW engine… in the Arizona desert? 👽🔥 This playlist follows the full journey of one of the wildest custom builds to ever hit the shop—an out-of-this-world, alien-inspired trike motorcycle that blends old-school fabrication with pure imagination. No CAD. No templates. Just raw metal, instinct, and years of hands-on experience. From repairing damaged front forks to completely rethinking the structure, fabricating parts from scratch, and dialing in that insane wheelie stance—this is the real behind-the-scenes process most builds never show. If you love: • Custom motorcycles & trikes • VW engine swaps & air-cooled builds • Old-school metal shaping & fabrication • Rat rods, hot rods, and one-of-a-kind creations • Wild, experimental builds you won’t see anywhere else …you’re in the right place. This is more than a build—it’s a no-rules, Area 51-inspired custom creation coming straight out of Ian’s new Arizona shop. 👉 Start from the beginning and watch this UFO trike come to life, piece by piece. #IanRoussel #FullCustomGarage #VWTrike #CustomMotorcycle #TrikeBuild #AirCooledVW #CustomFabrication #ArizonaDesert #HotRodCulture #RatRod #MetalShaping #OneOfAKindBuild #UFOBuild

Can This UFO Even Work?! Ian Roussel Pushes the Limits Ian is back on the wheelie-popping UFO trike—and today he’s trying to answer a big question… Will the UFO actually spin?! 😳 Ian Roussel is pushing his idea further by testing the concept and working through the real-world mechanics behind it. But like any true custom build, things don’t go perfectly… Ian quickly runs into some design flaws that force him to rethink parts of the build. Instead of stopping, he does what he always does—adapts, adjusts, and keeps pushing forward. In this episode: ✔️ Spin test theory and real-world challenges ✔️ Unexpected design flaws and problem solving ✔️ Dialing in the correct UFO height for drivability ✔️ Real fabrication thinking—no CAD, no shortcuts Getting the height right isn’t just about looks—it’s the difference between something that’s just wild… and something you can actually drive. This is what real custom fabrication looks like: trial, error, and figuring it out one step at a time in the shop. 👇 We want to know: Do you think the UFO is actually going to spin when it’s done… or is this idea getting out of control? — If you’re into: custom cars wild builds experimental fabrication VW powered creations one-of-a-kind vehicles Subscribe and follow along—this build is only getting crazier. #IanRoussel #CustomCars #UFOTrike #Fabrication #MetalWork #CarBuild #HotRod #VWEngine #GarageLife #FullCustomGarage 👍 LIKE • 💬 COMMENT • 🔔 SUBSCRIBE New builds, wild ideas, and real fabrication — only on YouTube #IanRoussel #FullCustomGarage #CustomFabrication #UFOTrike #MetalFabrication #DIYBuild #CustomCars #Welding #HotRod #RatRod #BuildProcess #NoCAD #Fabricator #carculture 👕 Get the Merch: https://roussels-custom-fabrication.myshopify.com/ 📸 Follow Ian and Jamie on Instagram👽 @Full_Custom_Ian @Mrs_Roussel_ 🛠️ Join the Private FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1120180179697223/
