Not a good deal, a GREAT deal! Happy for you, at 74, and not the best health, it's nice to see guys like you two appreciating the blessings.
If there had been any water intrusion at all, after sitting for that length of time, you would have the infamous mold and mildew smell for sure. You definitely got lucky with this Corvette!
I love these two humble guys both hard working like ive rarely seen indeed the best channel
Niko Brothers you have hit a home run, it is nice to see all of your hard work and time spent in Florida pay off big time. Enjoy the Corvette and than sell it for a well deserved profit. Your oldest fan in the West, Bruce.
I am happy to see you guys got a great car ! I've never seen one up close and the engineering is top notch . Love your videos . Have a great 2023 with more cool rides . God Bless
You guys are very good at trouble shooting problems like this and getting the job done. Excellent work as always!
You guys have been blessed with that car. WOW. I don't think no one will find a car for that price. That is a barging and 6000 miles, that's very sweet. Guys have fun you guys deserve it. Have a nice n blessed holiday. Enjoy
All your due diligence and hard work has paid off big time for sure!!!
😢
That was wild watching you just pull the interior apart. Well done!
Well done guys a great buy to finish a top year for you both. Been following you from the start you are very clever guys just shows others to stay dedicated and honest things do come your way. All the best for 2023
I am so happy for youuuu!!!! This motivates me to get a car from the auction as well
Sweet buy, looking really good brothers!
Very nice car guys and a heck of a deal on it. I had the same car, color, interior, etc. except for the Stingray R package. One thing to note that you've probably found out by now is that this car is different in that you're supposed to check the oil with the engine running. You guys are Living the Dream! Enjoy the ride!
SO beatifull car!! Congratulations Bros!!
I am loving how beautiful that c8 is ❤
Keep it! I have a 2003 c5 Z06 with 13k that I love but that thing is next level!!! What a steal!!
Great save on this one. I'm pretty sure that a ton of folks used the hurricane to get out of car payments, seeing that prices are going down.
Great work Michael,
It’s amazing that there is no water damage and it looks brand new.
Congrats!!!What a machine!!!
Awesome find, beautiful car. Maybe someone will get it for Christmas
That is an awesome vehicle! Nice find boys!
I enjoy watching your videos. The corvette is a good one. The way I am smiling u will think I own the corvette. Keep up the good work
Congrats guys! What a steal of a deal, really enjoy you showing the bidding process. How long do you plan on keeping it?
Congratulations on your new Corvette boat!
I think Michael is in love with the corvette💗🤣
You guys did alright. Beautiful Vette. Im jealous. lol.
It's like am watching my favorite series go my brother's u keep my mind pumped, thinking of my future passion I love vehicles
On issue that totals a lot of minor flooded cars is that many shops don’t want to work on them so the adjuster can’t really estimate the fix but has a good idea what it will be worth as a parts car. You can get started working on a flooded car and find out after you’ve spent some money that you should have totaled it.
It's beautiful!, In 1969 I bought a brand new in the show room Corvette, 427, 4 speed, convertable with two tops, I paid $5, 300 for it, sold it in 1975 for $4, 600, white with all black interior, it looked brand new, I use to clean the inside with Qtips, now I'm a great grandma, but it's nice to reminisce
Hello Niko Brothers, you won the Jackpot, congratulations. Tremendous automotive machine that can be very well sold for a good amount. Please don't even think of changing the color.😉Have a Happy Holidays!! 🎄🎅
The best video , best deal , best shows !!!!
one question , when you put in the new oil in the engine shouldn't you put 5,5 liter in it then start the engine for like 1 minute and then check the level before you put the other 0,5 or what so ... ? just to have right measurement ?
Been enjoying your videos by way of vtuned, 23rd Garage and Samcrac. Keep up the good work.
Someone in love 💖 😂😂😂 Michael so in love he doesn't realize he repeating himself.lol
Great call my friend great deal
Best looking vette. Congrats. 🎉
Great Locking Car 😊
Very nice grab for whatever reason. It be nice to learn of the backstory on it as we know Florida had some flooding a little while back and as mentioned the title may not allow you to garner what you may want from a sell, which is all the reason more of maybe holding onto it. It looks and sounds as though you’ve fallen in love with it and I know every time I drive mine it’s better than the last time and there’s not an instance where I don’t l👀k back when I park it and smile and say “that’s mine, that’s my whip?” I go into the garage on nasty days and just look at it and sometimes get in it and sit. Enjoy it while you have and if blessed with this one, so shall you be blessed to keep it and make up for it down the road. Find New Roads!
Great Job Guys!!!
Very nice Corvette!!!
I buy a lot of salvage vehicles. And I have seen those vehicles go through the auction at Copart wrecked for $40-$50,000. So if you got that vehicle for 63,000 after fees considering it’s the three LT you guys got a smoking deal. Great job guys your friend in California.
I am not sure if you were responding to me. If so, please let me know, Ron
KBB puts the CLEAN TITLE average value of a 2021 Stingray convertible 3LT Z51, with 6K miles and in "very good" condition, at $89k. Subtract approximately 25% for salvage value (possibly more as it was likely saltwater flood damage) and you have a residual/repaired salvage value of $66,750.
Super great content and a great buy 👍👍🇮🇪
Hey did you have to disconnect the battery before unplugging the seats due to the airbags?
Is that gek some lubrican for a previuosly sticking seat?
I really like how you work and be honest while fixing these cars....i really love it and i hope you tell me how i can buy cars you worked on them
Oh i realized that you put your link on ebay😅
Everybody should be giving the THUMBS UP 👍🏾
FEED THE ALGORITHM
Oh man. With all those options I’d hang onto that car for now. It’ll look great in your new garage. Great score nonetheless! Keep up the great work.
Great Buy !! Nice car !!
So where was the water line at, did they say or show it?
Gorgeous car.
Definitely a keeper.
God blessing you, enjoy both ❤️using it and the profit you are going to make on it.
My dream car. Just amazing. 👍
hi lads from the UK, lovely work.....as always, im interested in the background music you use, is it available to get, keep up the great work
Great Buy Guys
Looks sharp!
Flood title is bad, but after watching this seems to me she’s mint! Nice job boys!
It can be hit or miss apparently. My luck I'd end up with a car that was at the bottom of a lake!
Sweet deal for sure. Glad you guys got the Vette!!!
Fantastic videos guys! I really like the way you check the engine oil before you even attempt to start a vehicle up. If you remember, could you please explain in a little more detail why the GM trucks have potential troubles/water inside their transmissions, where the Ford seems to not have that issue? How does a Dodge Ram rate for potential water in their transmissions?
They mentioned regarding the transmission is GM has a breather that lets it the water if its high water.
What I don't understand is just adding the transmission fluid...why?
@@larrybe2900 Thank you.
I've heard that the idea is to push the water back out the breather because water will sit on top of the Trans fluid because they don't mix. Once Trans is over filled and pushed the water out you change the Trans fluid so less water gets down in the Trans then you warm up to temp then drain and fill again inspecting fluid. Not a mechanic but we did that on trucks we took too deep into water lol
@@Booyouslut Thanks Rob. I am not a mechanic either, so appreciate detail like that. They are the experts, but I don't think I would drive a vehicle anywhere until the engine and trans. have had their oil changed. I guess that is why they are making the videos and I am only watching! LOL . Al
beautiful definite supercar
Beautiful
Did y’all flush the oil before driving
Nice find!
Sweet ride
AWESOME DEAL !!!
What's the story on the beige Mazda pickup? I'm interested in it.
Well done 👍
That is a beautiful car. I think I would have a hard time reselling that thing.
Great score you guys got lucky there! Congrats you guys should bring a nice profit on this one
Looks like you got lucky on this buy. I watched your video of the day you bought it. Must have been fresh water. Salt water would be tough on any electrical connections long term. Enjoy ! Not too many people will ever get to drive something that nice.
When buying flood damaged cars, especially those in coastal areas, my worry is saltwater. Even if the car looks clean, a little salt water can lead to a lot of long-term damage that isn't easily or cheaply fixed. Congratulations on your buy, you did get a good deal. Might be a good idea to go ahead and flip it before any long-term damage shows up.
great drone footage! good deal on the car ...
Looks like a good deal but comes down to resale value. Did you mention it has a flood title? Or clean?
Last year they were hen's teeth but this year the dealer has five in stock? It's a polarizing car that some love and some not as much.
Nice car, be nice to have it. Sure doesn't look like much water damage! A Z51 that only took 6 quarts of oil? Is the C8 not a dry sump for Z51? My C7 when I had it too more than 6 quarts of oil.
Look good. 🏎️
Fabulous!
Fantastic deal!
Terrific deal👍
Killer Deal Niko Boy's !
So you'll sell it for $75K? You got very lucky on the condition and I think on the bidding with the other person who wanted it too but you outlasted and wanted to take the risk. It paid off, this time. Thumbs up again!
Love the colour
Follow you all the time and just realised you are not far from a company I worked at in 1984 (Lyman Boiler tube company of America) it had a replica of Stevensons Rocket on the lawn I stayed at The Holiday Inn at Jnc of 85,26 don't think it is there now was there for 5 weeks. I live in the UK.
Lovely scenery around there.⁷
Telegram scam ????
Love it 💯🔥🔥🔥🤟💕
Looks like the water that got in there drained out through the bolt holes. As it did, the oils along with salt were left near the bolts (the "gel"). I would definitely want to rinse/clean around those areas because the residual salt is going to pull water in from the air. 😬
That is exactely what I thought!!
Yep nailed it, Salt
Yup, looks like salt crystals to me. I work with steel and salt water corrosion and that bright orange on the rails is a good indicator. A solution of silver nitrate will also test for chlorides. The floorpan and carpets need a good wash and the seat rails cleaned and lubed or replaced!
@@bigpjohnson Also they didn't change transmission or gear oil or anything underneath (unless I missed a video).
Hola saludos desde CDMX de 🇲🇽 está muy bonito el carro 👍
Niko Brothers, Juan Carlos Saids That: "Hello greetings from CDMX: Mexico City of 🇲🇽 that's a very nice car 👍"
Beautiful car
What made you think you need 2 quarts of trans fluid?
Love it. I’ll buy it
That's a rad car as the rappers say nice whip
Great deal 👌🏼
Can hardly wait for the Chevy inspection report
Can’t wait to watch! 👍
Super car bro
It is a beautiful supercar 👍
Merry Christmas
You can disable buckle to drive in driver settings.
HI MY GUY, DID YOU CHECK THE ACURA TLX TO KNOW THE LEVEL OF WATER?
You got a good deal for such a nice car. if the dealer says it is all fine but for a minor issue then that's great. I think I would sell it as soon as you can just so you don't do any damage to it, too much money tied up in it anyway. Take care Micheal and Ivan.👍👍
