I Bought A 'TOTALED' C6 Corvette At Copart | EASIEST Rebuild Ever!? 

I feel like your putting way to much trust in that forklift standing under that car

Great find! Cool to see one being saved!

You can't go wrong with a C6, still a beautiful ride. Especially the Z06 & ZR1. Mean corvette's 👹🔥🔥🎬👍. Salute 🚘💯😎👍

New sub here. I’m already obsessed. Been watching all the past episodes. Love watching real work be done by auto techs. Too much showing off on the autovlogs these days. This is real world cool content. From an old guy to you young bucks. Keep bringing it.

Cool ride for sure. Sorry I Gotta say it fellas, you all were freaking me out standing under the vette with only the Forklift holding it up. Don’t know you all but still don’t want you guys to get hurt. I’ve seen hydraulics fail on heavy equipment, it’s a scary thing to see. Hope the Forklift had a safety lock of some sorts on it. Like the vid, Stay safe fellas ✌🏼

I think it's cool that you bring back Corvettes that no one else will mess with. for future corvette lovers.

Hell ya, I would buy it. Had a C4 at 24 and 20 years later, still looking to get into another Corvette. There is a story there but very cool vid. Glad you were able to save this one.

Definitely enjoy rebuilding content especially when you have nearly all the parts. Saves time waiting for next episode to drop when parts get delivered from who knows where. Keep up the good work and dying to see the outcome on the 911 turbo!

Love the Corvette, good buy m8, can't wait to see end result.

that part when you drove around with that funny lift, collecting the stuff, was great !

Damn cant believe you guys dont know. Take the tail light out, then you can remove the rear lock cylinder. The rear lock cylinder can be opened and expose the cable to open the rear hatch. 5 minutes tops after you do it once

That car sure wakes up fast!! CHEVY POWER

You're 100% right about the wheels!

I was waiting for the all famous 'pop' on that window! Good Job!

I have a c5 and drove a c6. 345 hp vs 405 hp both 6 spd. The 405 impressed me

1st time seeing your channel. Well done! Stay with it!!

Really like your uploads in here , I watched a few today so I have subscribed and I look forward to watching this as often as possible !

My weekend driver is a '12 C6 with a 6MT and it is truly an amazing car. Very cool to see you guys save this C6!

Hell yes! I'd buy that. 👍✌️ Great video!

Montgomery county here, I've seen y'all post in the Facebook groups. Didn't know you had a RU-vid channel. Subscribed. 👍

Awesome channel, awesome content. And u guys seem really cool. Thank u for this. I am searching for a used vet, this find you guys got seems amazing. I’ll start looking on Copart

Ha just bought a c5 torque tube from ya when i replaced my transmission shes still holding strong so far 🙏🏼

C6 can be opened with the physical key inside the FOB at the trunk. Read the manual, it's in there! I have a 4LT GS M6 and you can keep the dash from lifting by using leather conditioner monthly. I've had zero issues.

Great team!!!

Have you ever seen a video (Maybe Tiktok?) of a guy showing how to get into a locked car with your keys inside. They just took duck tape w/ loops as making handles to grab with on one bottom end and vertically stuck onto those pieces on window. Then go across vertically w/ horizontal strips overlapping vertical pieces using handle tabs to slowly work the widow motor down low enough to then just reach in and unlock. It looked clever of course Ive never tried it or had too yet lol..

Enjoyed the vid. It popped up in my suggested vids and most definitely I subbed right away. Big fan of channels like this!

love the out takes at the end!

This looks like a fun business!

Perfect project I’d love to have rock it!

Thanks for making a video like this, because these types of videos are really fun to watch. I actually like the polished wheels on the car better than the black wheels. I'd be interested to see how the car looks with a ZO6 or GS factory duck tail spoiler on it compared to the ZR1 style spoiler that's on the car. Are you going to film any of the process that is required for the state police to deem the car road worthy? Personally, I think that would be interesting. Looking forward to the next video

This channel is so interesting, keep up the work!

Great Video Thanks 😊

You guys have a lot of faith in the Hydraulics of that forklift

Love the Corvette videos bro👍🏽

I'd watch out for rear subframe damage..with curbed rear ends the frame has a tendency to slightly crack

These videos are so great. I like the progress in each video. Most youtubers wouldve made 3 videos on just picking it up and plan idea haha

Very beautiful

Great video. Great flow. I’m super critical on videos but yours in a 5 Star!! Keep it up bro. 👏

Thanks guys ..now i want one. and subscribed

clean c6 kinda jealous you found one in such easy to fix shape

I watched my buddy do an alignment at work. Pretty interesting.

I will you give you a compliment on your rapid and clearly said speaking abilities, you belong in sales for sure !

This is the very first video I've seen of your channel that I discovered today. For the most part I like what I see, however I would like to see more hands on the work being done instead of pictures of something broken than a picture of it being fixed God bless

I get rebuilding it to as stock looking, but I would've taken the chance to upgrade a little bit like coils to lower it a bit, and maybe new wheels (Rim+tire)

Love the c6.

I work for aaa and those are a bit tricky to open while being careful not to break the window or pop it out

can’t believe i’m seeing a car be cleaned on the channel usually they’re only getting dirty!

Awesomeness

I did the exact same thing when I first tried shifting mine. The paddles are crap haha.

I like the direction you are going with car I’ll be watching interested init

18:45 "Get outta here rice boy!!" 😳😳😳😂😂😂😂

Good find what did u guys pick it up for? Final price

First time watching the channel, subsd, and bell. Also, I bookmarked your website since I have some projects like changing the interior of my 07 from beige/tan to all black, black/red, or black stone. By the way, you get used to the paddles after 80k miles ;) I like them because I can change gears up and down with either hand.

You are definitely right about the Chrome wheels, they look great...Black wheels look cheap.

I have been to your facility 2x. Brought a ls3 and other parts. LeeC is a great place

Badass! A local guy with LS and Corvette parts! Got any C1 parts????

4LT!! Pretty rare!

You should cover the blades of the fork lift with something like thick paint or some sort of rhino lining. Those blades are carbon steel. If carbon steel comes I to contact with stainless steel, it causes corrosion.

Love the content!

Very nice for the money, I know or think these are more of a salvage parts place more so than a garage full of techs but am sure the alignment has nothing to do with noise from suspension. With that damage, I'm sure its a wheel bearing but will keep watching to see if I'm wrong. Love this channel.

I’m jealous!!!

Maybe some day I will be able to purchase a vett from u guys my dream car, a veteran dream

I think Alex should install paddle shift into his viper

The body shops will start fixing the good c5and c6 models that used to go to the salvage auction

As long as the rear adjustments are moving freely it's butta.

Awesome channel love the c6 n the zr1 would love to own either only problem is I live the Caribbean help a brother out I look at them on co part all the time but need someone in the ground

YES chrome rims look SO MUCH BETTER ! than black ! I’d love to own this Vette will you be selling this car ?

I would definitely be interested in buying that c6

I rebuilt 8 totaled C5's (2 ZO6's) mostly as a hobby but made good money on all of them. My buddy Shirl Dickey did it for a living and did 28. Ten years ago, I decided to do one more to use up most of my Ebay Vette parts. It was a Torch red FRC, just what I wanted with 40K miles. Man, was it fucked up. I replaced every body part except the roof (I did that twice on the ZO6's) and the doors. The frame was beyond fixing so I cut it off at the firewall and welded a junkyard one on. All 20 dimensions in the Vette manual has were within 1/6" for the frame. I paid $3,900.00 for it and had $7,200.00 in it when finished (10 years ago). It has 60K miles on it now so at 77 it'll probably outlast me. I love that car. Well, except for the $679.00 speeding ticket I got.

I bought a C6 that looked identical to this in damage. Got it home and lifted and the frame was a disaster. Not just bent in a few places but the frame was "accordioned" in at least one spot. We thought about how the damage we saw could have been done and the only thing we could come up with is that it went airborn. Luckily I bought afrom a reputable guy that I have bought a few corvettes from to rebuild and this one was just one that he bought and never had a chance to look at before he left for the winter. I purchased it from him in September after he already left, picked up the following March and he had never lifted it before he even returned. He was happy to take it back once we looked under together. I was so frustrated at that point, I just went and bought a 2 owner clean title car instead! It was spring time and I just wanted to drive, not fix. Now looking for a C6 GS to rebuild if anyone has something!

swap 1 wire in the steering wheel and the paddles will shift proper. Left downshift Right upshift.

You're right, black wheels look douchey. I'm not a fan of chrome either, but they're light years better than black. My go-to are OEM painted silver wheels, that's what I'd be putting on.

You’ve got a new subscriber, I’m super impressed with the videos. Love it and if the videos are always like this then im here to stay, I eat, drink & dream about cars, I’m a mechanic myself but I come home and watch more about cars… It’s almost disgusting 🤣

It would be cool to look around there with okey see what they have lol

Hello, all from Armenia! Nice video👍.

Been looking for a c6

So I’ve had a dead battery on a c4 and what I did to unlock it was I hooked up jumpers to the starter and ground and it unlocked so you could try that again

Specializing in C5 and newer only? LS generations and newer?

Kwikload trailer!

I’ve bought a lot of stuff from your shop for my Gto and C5

How I wish I could drive that corvette

Never been much for murdered out vehicles....I find em boring. Good find!

4LT always pull the leather from the dash. I guess it's only a matter of time for that example. Looks good tho!

You're right, wheels couldn't be worse! Overall, was it a good buy?

That wasn't the Copart lot on Patapsco Ave was it bro?

Love the channel. Would love too see a speed on the show

Can’t believe y’all don’t have the tiny air bag that opens the window instead of a plastic wedge, get one you’ll be glad you did

Alot of times they can be repos that went a year or more without being repoed and they are then salvage titled alot of times after they are finally recovered

Got ls 2 aluminum block

Hey I’m Eric in Washington DC I work construction for Hamel Builders I’m a new sub like what you guys are doing great work 👍🏾 but do you sell the cars😅

how did you find the clockspring tho lmao

breaking into car dead batt ,,, can you put power to starter under car ??

I like the Vett. Not a fan of Black paint perhaps the gray Vett in the parking lot. Good luck with your projects First time viewer. thanks.

How do I order parts? I need two rear wheel well liners for my 2011 GS... can't find a website...

Beautiful car. Sad to see chromed wheels though. Always thought chromed wheels were too flashy and a little tacky on a vett, specially the C6, but each has their taste. Very fun video to watch. Thank you for sharing

Sell the rims They would definitely look better either gold or Chrome or Chrome with a color inlay I personally would probably look into a small set of fender flares since you're already going to be painting anyway wouldn't take much maybe an inch and a half more Definitely wrap the wing in a black or maybe a carbon finish

Very nice how much for the red camaro

"We're gonna torque them later i promise ;)" lmaooo

You can open the hatch on a C6 with dead battery. Insert key in trunk and possibly a button to oush on exterior of trunk hatch. 90% of people dont know this about the C6

I want one
