Its only blowing $120k if hes having you redo the whole car. It just needs a bunch of TLC to have it proper. If hes redoing it might as well just start with another original car.. seems like it would make the most sense unless it has sentimental value.
@I95MOTORSPORTS ya I don't doubt that the quarters and everything else that was done isn't up to I95 standards... but 98% of any shops work that touches these donks ain't up to your standards. But all these cars done by other shops are still out here shining and putting smiles on faces. All I'm saying is keep this one as a rider and have yall build him that $250k trailer queen so he has 2 cars for $370k rather than 1 car for $370k. Anybody that knows cars knows its gonna cost him more money to have I95 fix all the other shops bogus work rather than starting fresh with a nice clean OG donk. In the end it all comes out the same just didn't blow the $120k cuz he still has the car. That's the way im looking at it atleast.
I refuse to believe someone paid 120k for that! I can't! They getting robbed! Rose gold's not matching. Wrong windows! They gotta be picking they cars up at night in a dark alley!
@@jasonmitchell8883 I know what it costs to build a car. I also know what shit quality looks like and this is shit. Way overpriced. Don’t care what parts are involved. It’s junk

Honestly Kenny you make me skeptical on ANY shop! Every shop I’ve used has gone outtta business but they did good work. I’m in NC. Idk where to go anymore
his logo a brick? So nuts to me how much making a car look like a hot wheels can cost! This is some serious car love. You are an amazing auto shop! NEXT LEVEL dollars! Not my jam but you are def a master
it isnt' JUST a hot wheels. its gonna be a 1000+HP car that can cruise down the street and handle that type of power without saftey issues and look like a show car. most of these guys like chip foose and ring bros charge 500k or more so this is normal
@I95MOTORSPORTS Have you thought about using the new flat crank v8 out of the c8 zo6? It'll have an exotic sound, which is very unique for a donk. Maybe a ferrari style interior to go with the sound 🤔 I love your work, you are a true artist and craftsman.
That green 75 is blowing 300k,last video of it (i think its called bipolar) look like it was worth 35k at best,this car seems to have minor imperfections but I'm sure he's about to pay a whole frame off price
Most of us don't know it's the wrong shop until it's too late. You can say check other work, but all of us don't even know what we're paying for in detail (wrong windows) . Additionally, I can speak to 10 former customers and they can all say 👍🏼👍🏼, then I see it say and say 😤😤😤
I have a 75 rag lowrider with big sounds , 4 year old paint and cracks like this one and it never dawned on me that the subs caused the damage. I assumed it was due to bumpy roads with the modified suspension. So what you’re saying these cracks are common with big stereos?
I use to work in a decent yet one of 3 top restoration shops in the us most the guys there were great... the owners tho, and the fact that they would keep a pos employee who isn't the best body guy and who also bullies everyone even his own boss... not only that I was homeless most the time and they would never give out raises or help me in any way. I could only put up with it for 9 months. I miss working on cars and hope one day a shop will hire me again because I found out just how great I can be in the body shop.
An expert like this picking a car apart is bearable and understandable, it’s when I pull up to a gas station or a parking lot and it’s a person who only owns a ‘03 Accord and they’re picking away at my car. They want to tell me how my molding is cracked on my ‘69 Nova or how my dash has a crack in my Buick Regal lol.
I’ve been watching i95 for awhile and came to the conclusion that their the Martin Scorsese/Robert dinero , of building donks, do other shops do a good job? Sure,but show quality, Oscar award type builds, they do masterpieces
And people this is why you don't buy anything already flipped. Buy a car and flip it your self, trust me, it's gon cost some money but you'll have the car the way you want it, and can't blame nobody but your self lol
I never want to knock another mans business, but the car is in shambles and needs some work to be super straight and show worthy. but it doesn't need a frame off for that...Now if the customer ask for a frame off, I can see that. But if it was told, it needed one to be nice, that's cap.I personally feel that all his prices are ridiculously high and are geared towards guys who have crazy cash to blow.Again its no disrespect to i95, but a lot of these cars can be built for less bread.
Billable hours is the biggest rip off a lot of times in the car game .So that above and beyond isn't free bruh. they charge for that shit and a lot of times, it's unnecessary. i've seen one of their builds in person and for what dude paid for, I wasn't impressed. Now again this is my opinion about their work, others see different and a lot of times dudes don't know quality work, they just go wherever everyone else goes and pay. Moral is, I95 customer base either don't care or know they're being cooked for bread.@@AB-ze2ho
