Thanks for explaining the Copart buying process, it’s not as easy as it seems or affordable. Most individuals can’t justify the expense. From a dealer perspective, you got to buy smart, work hard, source bargain parts and be Lucky.
Everything has to be smart as a dealer because you don't want to waste time. I am pretty sure you don't know most individuals. 😂 It is pretty straight forward if you know what you are doing and the expenses involved, so you find yourself a bargain.
Hey brothers I really appreciate the information on becoming a member, walk around and rebuilds. God bless your and your family for not being stingy or selfish. Could you please show us how you sell the vehicles after you rebuild them please? A lot of RU-vidrs are saying Facebook Marketplace. But honestly Facebook Marketplace is so diluted now that it’s hard to make a sale on there. Personally for me.
Would love to see you do the interior strip down and clean up. I brought several fresh water flood cars in the late 80’s to mid 90’s. Only had one issue when the power steering rack needed to be replaced on my 87 Dodge Caravan. Had a great 96 Toyota Camry wagon as well. The Caravan was brand new, paid $6500 with a $10,600 MSRP. That was completely detailed before my purchase. And the junk yard replaced the power steering rack no charge. The Camry wagon had 4,000 miles when purchased. It lasted forever!
Flood cars are ticking time bombs as corrosion eats away at the electronics. The amount of wiring that runs underneath the floor would shock most people.
Same as any other car for the most part unless you need some special inspection.. At the dmv they just wanted to see the car we bought because it was from out of state. They just verify the Vin and miles and just make sure lights work.
@@myshots101 I believe there is more to it than that. That’s why I asked. There is something needed to take a vehicle from salvage title to rebuilt title.
Nik the big yellow forklift, can't it cause damage to a car from below? As far as I know, a car has many parts that can become crooked, and plastic parts
Nah, just go to your local tow yards. They have auction days and you don't have to pay anything. Or your local junk yards, sometimes they have cheap cars if you're into fixing cars.
I used to have a 2017 ford explorer limited. I loved it until the water pump went out. The engine has to be taken apart to get to it. I traded it into the dealer cause they offered me way more than I thought knowing the water pump was bad & got a 2021 ford explorer ST.
The problem with buying salvage is everyone is too eager to buy you need to act uninterested and if there was no interest then the price would drop. But I suppose the problem is everyone is mortgaged up to the eyeballs so you have to be turning money
