"I didn't sell the airbag because I didn't trust it after it had been sitting out in the weather" You are the most honorable and best rebuilder/parts seller I know of, I wish more would be like you.

@gs1100ed Год назад

Might want to destroy it so that someone less scrupulous doesn’t use it.

@waynelutwiniak797 Год назад

Indeed, he cares 👍

@FLJAMESFL 10 месяцев назад

Awesome work ethic.

@duanebuck193 Год назад

It's actually encouraging to see someone try to recycle as much of a vehicle as possible (within reason for labor and cost). I know our local pull n save lots do fantastic business because of it (plus it's just fun to wander the salvage yard).

@anameisrequired3729 Год назад

Re-Use! It's even better than recycle.

@kaigunfan Год назад

12 years ago I bought a 2005 Altima SE from a tow yard that had also slid backward into...well either a large rock or a fire hydrant, for $225. I then began rebuilding 3rd generation Altimas for the exact same reason. Ended up going through probably 30 parts cars and rebuilt over 100 of them. Even to this day I still will occasionally nab one from the south and build it cause they are easy to work on now, and I have an entire panel van worth of parts.. I have no feelings either way for them, other than that first tow yard buy taught me how to take one apart and judge the damage to pretty much any one of them by a few pictures. I wonder how many other people started fixing a specific gen of make and model the same way? Nice vid as always!

@yeahitskimmel Год назад

Very cool story thanks for sharing, I always wonder the genesis of those people who build/drive a bunch of the same car

@chris103193 Год назад

How do you get into buying a vehicle from a tow yard?

@explorehunter 5 месяцев назад

Very sensible question @@chris103193

@HP.Customs Год назад

Bought a flood 2018 Jeep Wrangler last year, I rebuilt one with rear collision and right now I’m building one with front end damage. That is the way to do it.

@rafaeltorovip Год назад

That proves that what is junk for someone is gold for someone else. 👍

@GusMahn Год назад

One man’s junk in another man’s treasure. Really like Everyman builds.

@itsnotme07 Год назад

Now that's what I call RECYCLING! Very cool!

@therealmcoy Год назад

It sure would be nice to have a lot more honest people that takes pride in their work like you. There’s not too many great people like you left in your line of work anymore. Keep it up!!

@richardthomas1743 Год назад

Scott! Hello, you're a smart man! Making money is what it is all about.

@ajfurnari2448 Год назад

The thing is, you probably get another $100-$300 out of what you take to the metal scrapper

@charleshenshaw9099 Год назад

I can't believe that you got it so cheap. Like you said it made you a lot of money.

@larrybe2900 Год назад

Most likely it may have cost more to keep it. That is how some cars get totaled out because if time is involved to pay rental costs or other items it is cost effective to unload it to free up space for making money or insurance to pay out more than it's worth.

@webman1956 Год назад

Just a smart way of doing business with buying a totaled car that is a popular model that you know you will see down the road in your shop again. Love your work and your videos!

@logancarter2134 Год назад

Fantastic content! Thanks for a behind the scenes look at what and how you do what you do.

@deshaunjackson8188 Год назад

A very good episode 👌 cleared up a lot!

@anthonycadiou8367 Год назад

Your amazing Scoot, the time and energy used to do what you do is a reminder of so great people. Good job!!

@Blackford86 Год назад

I like watching you, rebuild these things to give me a good working knowledge

@donaldhalls2189 Год назад

I'm glad you were able to make it all work, all the best to you and your loved ones

@joelboertlein5660 Год назад

Awesome video! Thanks for the insight!

@farazsiddiqui6689 Год назад

This was extremely satisfying to watch Scott. Maybe it is your honesty and kindness. Best always.

@bugged120 Год назад

Honestly Scott, I think you are a genius! Well done on creating such a successful business over the years.

@garthbutton699 Год назад

Makes sense to me,thanks for Keeping us in the loop🤗😎🤗😎

@wyore4344 Год назад

Scott. please keep up all the Hard Work and Great Content. what a wonderful business model you have developed for your self. around here, we used to have "bargain salvage yards"; they made most of their money off of the $25.-100.00 impound cars they bought. several of them became millionaires with that simple business model. alas, that time is long gone. you do very nice work. congratulations on your successes. very best to you and yours...walt+mrs.

@AiMR Год назад

Scott, great video! Hey, I was wondering how you decide which models to rebuild. Is it purely what is available at the time, or does some research go into it?

@houseofno Год назад

Be careful when you say "can't complain about that." Trolls can and DO. But hey, watching you shut down trolls is half the entertainment of your channel. Keep up the great work!

@rayberlin Год назад

Thanks, Scott! You're a great videographer on top of your skills as a rebuilder. I like your narration, funny smartass style, it shows great confidence. No one else is surrounded by gnomes that eat pizza. Considering the utopian govt cafe standards and the push for more coal-fired electric cars, remanufactured cars might be the only answer for future individual transport. Keep up the great work! Here's hoping that you make more money than you can possibly spend.

@pheuker45322 Год назад

Pretty cool to see how the sausage is made - thanks for revealing some of the secrets of Scott’s (insert current project here Emporium)

@Stahodad Год назад

Good idea to add in your own time with the parts removal... A very valuable commodity...

@alanhubbard1868 Год назад

Wow, you picked that one clean!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I used to do VW Bugs back in the day, Picked them clean, and horded all the parts. When My mother moved out of her house, the buyers said they were tearing down the garage, so we could leave anything we didn't want in there. That was one huge pile I left in that garage !!!!

Great video always enjoy business videos

Looking forward to the next build Scott 👍

I haven't heard many people asking about the Mustang lately, so I won't either as I don't want to delay it any longer. I just can't wait to see the sick back bumper get some stress testing. #mustang #crowds

Looks like the Sam's rotisserie chicken after my wife picks all the meat off of it. Times are tough and great to save every penny you can. Keep up the good work!

Mr Spot and Mr Scott are wicked smart!

@robertclubs9908 Год назад

Awesome show my friend.

@OldeCarrGuy Год назад

Well done. Parts cars are definitely worth their weight! Not to mention scrap prices these days!!!

@ernmeister54 Год назад

Pretty smart way to rebuild cars. Spend some time taking the parts off but save a bundle on getting them from someone else.

@conradnear4068 Год назад

Great content. Very fitting outro music 5:29 😂

@RobertBrownbrowncone Год назад

Great video!

@jackos944 Год назад

i’ve done this too scott. saves so much money!

@unorthodoxridez Год назад

Awesome, definitely a great role model.

@encorempw Год назад

So wait a minute… You buy parts cars… Use the parts to build other cars at a discount… Sell parts off of it to recoup your investment… And then scrap the leftovers when you’re done? I ought to try that. Nice short sweet vid!!

@jackleyman3773 Год назад

Love your channel.watch it all the time. I could really use your help on a welding job I need. I wish you were in my area . I was thinking of driving to you but that would be crazy. I have a 2003 trailblazer with almost 320k original everything. Engine is bullet proof so far. The rear left trailer arm with the attached bolt became loose due to rust. It's not serving a purpose at the moment, only rattling as a drive. It can be fixed but the spacing is tight . One welder wants 1,000 dollars. I'm still shopping around.

@denniscarreno5882 Год назад

You have the gift Scott!

@chucie9265 Год назад

You know when to get rid of it when it looks like what’s left over of your Thanksgiving turkey after a few days.... Great Vid again, Scott!

@kenthammarstrom8255 Год назад

you are using your skills the right way👍

@ipaddlemyowncanoe.7441 Год назад

That was pretty good. Thank you. Something interesting. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

@hanshoogendyk2203 Год назад

Although I am a lifetime mechanic , I learned early on in life, don't buy stuff to do up that you like, look around and see the shortage that the car market is hungry for , if I still had all the vw combis that I fixed or recycled I would be a millionaire now, but I used to do them up and convert to vw campervan style for a 100% profit after cost, one thing I did get stung on was a 8 month old Subaru brumby that had been rolled, no new parts or used ones available for 18 months at 70 years. Old I still do up cars, I really enjoy your videos as I enjoy the never stop learning thing, I believe that attitude stops people dying young from boredom

@tomswindler64 Год назад

Very nice,I won’t pick on you anymore for Lexus’s.Lol good video 😎😎😎👍👍👍

@afterhoursfab Год назад

I do the same thing. I once owned 5 Terrains at once, just kept buying projects to fit the parts car. I'm now doing 18+ Enclaves, currently own 3 but looking for a fourth 😁

@michaelhartloff3833 Год назад

Wassup another great video

@Bbernhardsr Год назад

I really wish I lived closer to where you live because I would ask you if I could work with you and learn from you. I have many years in the automotive recycler buisness as a puller and I took great pride in disassembling cars without breaking a single thing. When I was done you could put it back together if you wanted to. I guess one bad thing to that is when the boss discovered I could pull wire harnesses without damaging them, I got all of those pull tickets. As you know some GM cars are terrible and the entire car is one big harness that does not seperate at the firewall. I really enjoy your videos and I am glad I found your channel.

@allanstephenson9336 Год назад

Sir. That's what a SMART BUSINESS MAN DOES. Ur there to make a living not to live on bean's. Love ur videos

YOU ARE THE BOSS!

@chrisjessee4299 Год назад

Cool video…Thanks

@tomschevette Год назад

I do the same thing for my daily drivers. few years ago I bought a van then another parts van and made one good van out of the two of them.

@RayleighCriterion Год назад

Don't forget to drain that windshield washer reservoir, there's got to be like $5 worth of washer fluid in there.

@mikechiodetti4482 Год назад

If you've got the room, this is a great idea!

@allcoupedup Год назад

Love the shop

@RecoveryRoomRestorations Год назад

now it makes sense as to why you like rebuilding these in particular

@FlyEaglesFly19111 Год назад

Forget "IN the pile" it now has become "THE PILE"..Great job yet once again. Cannot beat free education for all those keyboard warriors. I still think it could hold alot of haters tears too..still looks floatable. Stay safe and be well Scott!

@goptools Год назад

Hey Scott, was that a bottle of hater's tears in the trunk? Hope you're not scrapping that. They are priceless! Thanks for the video!

@mrenfilade7178 Год назад

That frame looks like the tattered, fattyfloating walrus carcass thats been torn apart by sharks and is now being peaked apart by the sea brim. +1 Like

even if you did have to pay 1000 for parts, just pass it down the the buyer lmao.. i like your videos. its neat to see a car all torn apart.

@Ls6racer Год назад

Thanks!

@SwPiotrek Год назад

Great synonym for recycle

@Bill_N_ATX Год назад

Like they say about hog production, use everything but the squeal! You just need the property to store your parts, the knowledge of which parts cars make sense, and the patience to get the last dollar out of them. And the impossible part of 2022, be willing to work hard.

@forgetfulme1719 Год назад

u have ur own mini junkyard and u have skills.

@garyrandall3426 Год назад

While replacing the trailer connector with one from a wrecking yard, as I was changing the wires over, I could hear your voice saying "somebody's been here before" as I came across some questionable splices on the replacement..

@scarlettsorento4421 Год назад

Would love to see your yard full of your parts cars.

Good way to combat the throw away society we have, people complain about how much stuff is all throw away yet continue to not bother to fix it because its to much work.

@redneckbryon Год назад

I agree it's definitely worth wild anytime you can get a parts vehicle, for a good price. But in your case why do you have to pay for storage?? You have your shop and Scott's Lexus Emporium, to store stuff at.
