Love seeing younger guys hustling! Let me give you some advice. One. Get yourself 3 inch sanding paper and a backing plate. Attach it to your drill and that will save a lot of time of sanding by hand. Get some polishing pads as well! With tyre shines…a very important step is to actually clean them before with a dedicated tyre cleaner and a stiff brush. Jet washing them is not enough. There are wheel and tyre cleaners out there so you can use it on both. Use solution finish on all the exterior plastic bumpers (makes a massive difference) Fully decontaminate the car with iron remover,tar remover and than clay bar. Apply a hand polish on it to bring up that shine and hide some of the fine scratches away…at the end use a spray on rinse off wax to keep it protected and boost the gloss….
Nice job, Chuckle. A couple things I would suggest is: 1. Sand headlights with 600 grit then just spray a clear coat on them. 2. Restore the exterior trim using "solutions finish." 3. Before you extract seats and carpet, spray them down with a cleaner, agitate with a brush, then extract with water only. (Don't get them too wet because you will get stains that come back from the water wicking. Also, its a pain once the seat foam gets saturated.) 4. Use a water based interior trim shine, so it doesn't look super shiny. I like the new car look. (303 aerospace) 5. Use a glaze on the exterior trim to fill scratches (temporarily) and give it a shine.
Great job on your first. Way better than mine. My first one failed because way bigger problems than i could handle. After several months of resaving money I'm finally ready to try my second one. I'm being far more careful on this one. And I'm gonna start making car videos too. I gotta get whatever i can get going so i can escape retail and actually fucking live life and not be a cog in someone's machine to grind down and replace whenever they want
@@TopG-fn3py I actually won big on my 2nd attempt. Got a 01 blazer for 400. Owner thought the rear end was going out and it was blowing blue smoke. Turns out the grinding sound and smoking was caused by it struggling against the rear diff... because... THE REAR TIRES WERE DIFFERENT SIZES! Got the tire swapped for a matching one and that stuff stopped. Though the struggling for so long did tear up the axel bearing so we had to get a mechanic with a special tool to knock it out cuz we couldn't. I vacuumed up the interior and it looks really nice despite the years of Florida man abuse. About to do an oil change with the highest grade Castrol, Mobil 1 filter, and marvel mystery oil. Then replace the engine and cabin air filters. Then the ac blower motor resistor so the fan works at all speeds again. Then replace the broken air vents. Then maybe instead of getting the materials myself, get a 200 dollar detailing done for me. Resale could be over 2500 though blazers are kind of a dime a dozen unfortunately. But for now, I'm using it as a personal vehicle while I build a computer instead of getting another car to try yet. Because I almost scored a 2012 Chrysler 300 for 1200 from a tow yard and just needed a power steering pump (500 bucks) and a detailing. And resale would be 7500. I nearly shit myself. But turns out they left the ad up and somebody got it a week before me. So I went with the computer instead cuz I've been without one for over a year. But I'll get back to it after that's built. Haven't made any videos on the blazer though because I'm just so unconfident and unsure of myself. I got a phone camera, a lisp, bad reflection, and no editor. And my dad's been taking charge of the repairs cuz I get up too late for his taste cuz of my Walmart job and I only have the energy to work on it on my days off, so... ugh. It's been rough. I wish I could just do stuff. I need a partner who's a mechanic lol. I need a hand of confidence and general help. I could still do blazer videos, and a catchup on what's already been done and what's left. Idk man...
@@Subreon How's it now, 9 months later? Also, confidence and willingness to learn goes a long way in life, and especially in any sort of trade or skill you're trying to learn.. You should keep on learning and watch videos for working on cars.
@@dim7239 i still have the blazer from the previous comment. still running great and only getting better as i take care of it. i have no immediate plans to sell it. instead my next purchase is going to be a retired school/city bus to convert into a motorhome, since it's impossible for my generation to buy a house. i actually almost got one today on my first auction, but someone sniped it out from under me at the last second. will have to wait a while for the next nearby auction since that was the last one in the area. i do plan on making videos of that project once i get one. it's gonna be a long road. (but if people send money to me, i can do it a lot faster :D)
I’ve been wanting to start this so bad for extra income to help fun creating more car content on my channel. The process of transporting in a costly manner and the whole title/paperwork situation, where I really get stumped. Then jumping into a deal that seems right.
I detail cars as a side hustle, also using narrowing some methods from Chris Fix and I had no idea about a magic eraser! I’ll definitely have to try that out!
Good job on fixing your sister’s car. She did you a solid by selling it to you for just $500. Hopefully you will return the favor by offering to fix her next car(s) so they don’t run ragged like this one did. Giving to others will help you get a lot more in return.
*For the headlights, I saw this trick either on Reels or RUclips but, they used MOTHERS 05101 Mag & Aluminum Polish on the headlights without sanding and it worked pretty well. I tested it out on my wife's Jeep, and it works super well and again, no sanding.*
I would suggest getting tools to do basic maintenance on your own car first and then from there you can learn and start looking to buy a project car if you like it.
Just make sure to be thorough in everything you do, the less corners you cut the more money you have a chance at making. I hope your first time goes GREAT!!!!
@@Chucklehead00 Hey, I'm really happy for your success man. It makes me think I could do it too. I'm practicing on my car right now, trying to fix the scratches inside haha
How much did you actually pay for the car? Did your sister just give it to you or did you sell it for her? I'm thinking about flipping cars with my dad and I'm 15.
For your first time you probably will mess up a couple times, I know I did at least but it’s impossible to fail as long as you learn from those mistakes so yeah don’t be scared that would be my best tip
Very good for doing this the first time, but I would say you have to put a little bit more effort into cleaning both the exterior and interior I know it's a bit hard and you get lazy with it since I saw there were some spots that you missed or weren't cleaned enough.
Lol yeah I definitely took a lot of inspiration from him I gave him credit at the very end but now thinking about it I should have put that part in the beginning. My B
@@Chucklehead00 honestly you two are just doing the same thing so at the end of the day its gonna be similar. I really liked this video and i think im gonna start making videos i bought a dodge neon recently for 900 and im having some people look at it this weekend its a lot of fun flipping cars too

What kind of glaze do you use ?
@@flipjoe Meguiar's Mirror Glaze
Yes except the headlights. That's probably the worst thing you can do to them.
Good job man. You have the idea and concept right. Entertaining, so keep the content up and I’ll see you at 100k subs.
I just watched Chris' car flipping video again and yours came up in the thumbnails after it :) good job dude.
Do more :)

Nice Video Bro I like your efforts keep up the good work
Hey bro great job! Keep it up!

What year and how many miles on it when you sold it?
Awesome job I flip cars aswell just a tip get a buffer and just buff the headlights works wayyyy better and it only takes 5 minutes
Nice video, keep them coming
Good work bro keep it up
*For the headlights, I saw this trick either on Reels or RUclips but, they used MOTHERS 05101 Mag & Aluminum Polish on the headlights without sanding and it worked pretty well. I tested it out on my wife's Jeep, and it works super well and again, no sanding.*
Does it last?
@@dim7239 *So far so good. I honestly do not remember when I did them last but, I got to say, at least 6 months to a year.*
Hello! Could you tell us what was the brand and model of this Vacuum extractor you used (wet vacuum cleaner)? Thank you!
Nice work
Sick dude!
Nice vid man, i think it was great being super explanatory!!!! Keep it up
I would do the clay bar next time trust me it will make your paint so smooth
I have an 05’ Xterra with 208,000 miles. I love it. I would have kept it. Repairs are cheaper than car payments.
We need another video !
Great job man. Vidoe was pretty rough but i still enjoyed it and I'm sure your video's are just going to get better with experience. Keep it up!
Love your Hard work man, keep it up!
Nice video, would love to see more in the future! Keep it up man 👍
Great video man keep up the good work, I rely enjoyed it cant water for the next one!!!!!!!!
nice work bro great problem solving
Great video dude. Keep up the good work.
Good job bro keep making videos
Where do I get 500 dollar cars in Dallas?
hey bro good job keep it up
Please make another video like this.
nice video , your channel has a lot of potential
Your on you way to making good money on car flips. As you go doing videos you will get alot of subscribers, you did a go job 👍👍👍👍👍🍻 keep it up buddy.
How did you handle the title when you sold it to the new buyer?
I would just leave it in the previous owners name
love the vid! add how much you spent on repairs as well to actually see how much profit you made
I hate how he didn't buff out the headlights!
I want to start doing this too, but i have neither experiece or the tools,any tips?
I would suggest getting tools to do basic maintenance on your own car first and then from there you can learn and start looking to buy a project car if you like it.
I really don't understand English, but the video you posted is great.❤
Bro.. I'm literally about to start doing this! The vacuum should arrive tomorrow. Then I'll be set. Good job man. Any tips?
Just make sure to be thorough in everything you do, the less corners you cut the more money you have a chance at making. I hope your first time goes GREAT!!!!
@@Chucklehead00 Hey, I'm really happy for your success man. It makes me think I could do it too. I'm practicing on my car right now, trying to fix the scratches inside haha
check to see how many vehicles you can sell per year in your state without a dealer license or you could get into some trouble
@@don2xifyany update howd it go?
Do it again! Next could you total up everything you used so we know actual profit
Next time you can just un-plug your ignition coils to see which one doesn't cause a change in engine RPM when un-plugged.
New vid when man
One and done??
Nice job 👍 Just curious to ask if you need some type of license to buy vehicles and flip them for resell?
In Virginia you can buy up to 5 vehicles in a year as a private seller but if you reach that limit you could use some family member names 🤫
Cool, I just looked it up and it’s the same here in South Carolina. Thanks for the reply
How much did you actually pay for the car? Did your sister just give it to you or did you sell it for her? I'm thinking about flipping cars with my dad and I'm 15.
If you enjoy doing these types of things id suggest doing more and document them on your yt for even more money
Make more buying / selling !!
Damn man give me some tips on first time, ive been holding off bc im scared of failure
For your first time you probably will mess up a couple times, I know I did at least but it’s impossible to fail as long as you learn from those mistakes so yeah don’t be scared that would be my best tip
@@Chucklehead00 thanks bro

7 1/2 miles per gallon.. if your driving 40 Mph.. 40 mph is A must.😆
RUclips has more and more ads it’s so annoying they want us to pay for no ads.
when will you be posting a new video???????
As soon as I can get my hands on another project car lol
A little more life in your voice and there’s your RUclips career! Vid was great and informative!! Keep it up!!
Yeah...car needed a wash and maybe 450$ of mechanical work.
I wouldnt say that knocks the price down 3000$.
Regardless, nice work!
keep it up, just work more on filming the right angles and also some music in the background when your done talking, good luck
i like the video, if possible a little longer and very low music in the background
mann keep doing this

Bro didnt do nothing but clean it was a $3200 dollar car to begin with
Not really a car flip because no way would you find something for 500 without negotiating you’re ass off or getting lucky but ok.
That’s literally what flipping is
i find good deals at auctions a lot of time, plus word of mouth as well
