thx Nate for everything.... the quality of your vide and cuts are professsional... I like it.... and 23rd Garage gets your first 100k Subscribers... good luck best regards from Germany
im an old timer auto/diesel tech of 54 yrs. for a young guy like yourself to give a damm about your work... my hats off to ya ! yes im new to the channel and will be subing to it. thanks...
As an owner of a Lariat, this video is invaluable in terms of how to ever remove/replace/upgrade any of the components. Thank you for taking the time to record this! (I’m thinking about changing out my console shifter for a column shifter and seeing the steering entire steering column come out is cool)
You guys do good work. No two ways about it. Most repair people cut as many corners as possible to get it done as cheap as possible. I was in the automotive repair business all my life and i can vouch for that.
I a did enjoy this video ! It is tragic to see how some people playing with the safety off other peoples by not replacing the airbags and safety belts....but you Guys are fixing it the way it suppose to be !!! Make some nice progress with this car and now the frame work and resting some parts and the car is ready to go ! I said often and again the camera work and editing is top class work from Nate and the choice off the pictures and the music is making this channel extra special !! Thanks for that Nat, you and Yuri are the best team to make work like this so nice to watch !!!
Thank you for your honesty and knowledge. I was almost in this situation but thankfully my experience, knowledge and skills helped me discover pretty much the same crappy "repairs" as you are repairing. Not enough honest sellers or mechanics . Buyers need to know all the knowledge that they can obtain before buying a vehicle from a auction, dealer or personal sellers. I found the truck at a dealership ! A Ford dealership !
Thank you for your honest hard work young men . You will both do great in life. Both you guys make the work look so simple. 60 years ago, I could do most work on cars & trucks but they were much simpler in the early 60s . Lol. This old man appreciates both your hard honest work ethics.
Thank you Nate for your hard work Kindness is a weakness to the indecent but virtuous to the decent. Both of your mom and dad did a great job raising you to be among our most decent. Bravo sir. Your integrity is still impeccable.
Nice to see you again.Great work all around Nate.Filming,editing,and all the mechanical too.Yuri does some work too,and sometimes it'a alright.Kidding.He's always good too.That 'bore scope' is good for looking inside Everything.Intakes on BMW's have those stupid flaps that always break,etc.Can check without tearing it all apart.Later guys.
Looking good. Rare to see good honest work these days. My dad sat beside you on a airplane going to Chicago a few weeks ago. Talked really highly of you. Been watching vtuned and goonz for years but hadn’t heard of you until he turned me on to your channel. Diggin it so far brotha.
Thank you sir I appreciate the support very much and I remember your dad,first thing he said to me when I sat down was “I seen you on tv”. It was a tiny quiet airplane and we talked the entire flight and I swear half the plane listened 😆 tell James we need to fly to china so we can finish our conversation.
Thanks Nate, you do a great job. Also Nate, the Orange Mustang, a video which showed off your editing talents - So after putting hours into days, then days into weeks and weeks into months, which you neatly squeezed into a short 10 minute RU-vid video, my question for you Nate, DID the south Florida chiseller, did he finally pay you guys?
Hi guys, what a stuff up that truck is, there looks as though there is a few headaches in that fix, but i think you guys can handle it. A good video.👍👍.
I bought a boroscope a while ago when i was looking for a new motor for my daughters car. It has saved me a lot of time and money while looking at supposed low mile engines. Most of which were so rough on the cylinder bore they were definitely not worth anything but scrap value.
after following you boyz (and brothers) for some time now, i always thought your work ethic was so clean i just expected the US was like that - in the UK we call them garage scammers cowboy builders, there are a lot, i have had one myself who would fix my cars current issue, to only have another pop up, like sabotage so i have to go back, after a couple of years i reckon i either got paranoid or wise to what was going on - so its bye bye and started to use someone else, a really nice guy, even cleans the car before he works on it, quality
I know the feeling here in Australia. Took our cars to mechanic who was my parents' neighbor. Told us the '90 Honda civic needed a new radiator. Booked it in and dropped it off. No work was done as he could not get the part. Had the car for years after and the radiator was never changed. Did not go back to him. I think my parents also worked out he was looking for unnecessary work to do.
Nate, you're the man! Keep up the great work! Is that really suppose to pass as a Platinum grille? It looks like the cheapest Chinese grille you could get off Amazon. Great job guys!
I use mine to look inside cylinders. Check top of pistons and cylinder walls. A friend had a 5.4l Ford that spit out a spark plug. The magnet got some metal out of cylinder before completing the repair.
Yuri, it is truly sad how many shops not only tolerate work like this, they encourage it. One local chain was caught up; by the time their books had been checked and all the owners contacted well over two hundred vehicles were involved and many thousands of insurance claim dollars- and it was a big insurer's fraud department that did the work, not the police department. This big FAT Plat Ford will thank you ,Yuri for the rest of a hopefully long life. The trash in the frame work was a travesty- 23rd is the place to see this right. PS; Nate, this is a special message to you; all the rest could be great, but nobody would really know it if you didn't catch it and then produce it into content. And , tbh, you know your brothers work and timing like only family could. We don't see you enough so, step around to do the intros from time to time, introduce to to the "hidden hand". And your sisters! Yuri, you wouldn't last five minutes if they caught you "boroscoping " the powder room door!
I've bought several cars from Copart and IAAI. I do all of the work myself and I have never come out ahead on a car. I think most people are in the same boat I am in. All of the cars I bought have been BMW's. I could have just bought a non-salvage BMW and probably been ahead of the game. The one thing I do know is the car is 100% sorted when I am done with it. And I gain experience on BMW's.
Dude is from TX that brought the F150 to 23rd garage. I tell people about this channel to get the word out for being in the top tier of hardest working body team
Buying a car at Copart is a gamble. All sales are final you get what you get. That’s why this is only for people. That understand what’s at risk. Theres so many public people buying cars with a broker and thinking they are getting a deal when in reality they are not . Because they don’t have a clue what they are doing. You need to go to Copart and inspect a vehicle that’s the only way you can see what’s going on with the vehicle. If you don’t have automotive experience and you don’t know anything about body work. Then I suggest don’t even try to get a car at Copart or any other salvage auction. Because you will lose most of the time. There’s very good salvage cars on the on the internet for sale . But always take it to a pro to inspect it for you. Leave the fixing to the pros. Save yourself a big headache..
I had the curtain airbags deploy on the golf, I took it out and used a steamer on it and id say 99.8% of all the creases came out. You couldn’t tell it was ever damaged
I see this type of stuff all the time thankfully my boss has us check the srs system all the time but this is not coparts fault this is usually done by the shops that takes in the vehicle after the original accident after it's been deemed a total loss and the insurance company has them put it back together again then it goes to coparts and they list them them clean title now you buy it as a clean title after you purchase it they change it to salvage rebuilders are then screwed and copart won't help you after the purchase you fix all this stuff at a added cost and know you have to sell it as a rebuild so people like my boss are the ones who lose
I got scammed from the North Boston Copart lot on a 2020 Escape. I should have known when it said the car was "off lot". Someone had put lipstick on it and made it look like it was hardly damaged. It had a clear title (because it was a rental car) so I thought it couldn't have very much damage. I lost $7000 on the car after I reran it through my local Copart lot after disclosing the damage.
My experience with some of these rebuilds is that it becomes too expensive, picking one repair after another, so much so that the dealer usually cuts and runs, leaving all the work to some other dude like you sir 23rd garage. It's just business as usual..
