*Update*
Car sold after a couple days of listing.
In total I profited around $5400
Between 60-70 hrs of work maybe. (I need to keep better track of that)
Next time, get a quote from Carvana. I know several people that sold their cars to them and they paid more than Carmax or anyone would offer via Marketplace, etc. Great job though Zach!
I was so worried you weren’t gonna be able to make your money back. To me this was extremely risky. There’s at 5000 of these vehicles available for sale nationwide if not more. Most of them are low mileage as well. I’ve been offering 4000 and $5000 for low mileage ones. I haven’t got someone willing to sell one to me yet. But all of these cars have been on marketplace for over month so eventually, one of these people might message me back
@@josephfitzgeraldnsw5794lowball 😢
$4535 + $5400 = $9935
Cost + profit = sales price
He probably sold it for $10,000, and had some dmv fee or taxes.
If you net $5400 for let say 70 hrs. that's great earning. People with good paying job gross pay around 4 to 5K a month. You're also commited to doing a great job fliping cars/trucks. If I were close to you, I would buy from you...I don't mind having a rebuilt cars/trucks, especially newer and low miles. Great works
Your video is popular because it’s relatable. We don’t own McLarens or Lambo’s.
I don’t want anything so expensive I’d be scared to drive it.
Only high dollar car I wouldn’t mind having is a Porsche. Maybe some day. Need to fix up about 100 more of these 😂
His paint came out better than those guys and they have an actual paint booth. lol
Nice job. Clean title is relative. That was a total but you did a great job.
@@ultimaterebuilds7127 Buy a cheap old porsche off marketplace and flip it
@@ultimaterebuilds7127 just don't get a 944.
Man, if CarMax will give you $10,500. . That's the way to go, full payment with no stress are nitpicky customers. God bless
is it salvage?
@@jianbinchen2881no it’s not, has a clean title
@@jianbinchen2881no it wasn’t salvaged somehow. He still had a clean title
Great video! I think you should sell it to carmax and take the $10,500 and make a video documenting that process that way you get another video out of it which hopefully brings in good ad revenue and you can potentially make even more! I love this new series with this and the Tacoma! Keep them coming! Keep up the great work! Also even if a car has been in a wreck if it doesn’t meet the insurance company’s threshold to total it the vehicle stays clean title.
You are correct. There’s a lot more technicalities into a car being totaled or not. Easiest way to put it is if it’s going to cost more the repair it than what it’s worth.
Well done Zach - I appreciate your willingness to jump into a project of this complexity and your resourcefulness as well. One thing to note - you hadn't mentioned the total time committed to this build. May be worth mentioning in the updated comment to give an idea of how much your time is worth. Congrats again.
I agree and we can estimate how much you pay yourself per hour into the project. :)
I appreciate that you did everything pretty much by the book and didn’t take and shortcuts, but I don’t think this should be allowed to be sold as a clean title
Nice job! I recently sold a vehicle to Carmax and they paid $2600 more than anyone else was willing to give me.
Never clicked so fast on a video! :)
Don't forget to price your sweat equity into the asking price. It should sell easily for the high estimate or more. An efficient low mileage Toyota should be a no-brainer.
I really like seeing these type of videos--you taking stuff, fixing it, and making $$ doing it. You show great skill and patience, and you're still learning your craft. Keep it up!
I was going to say ask $10,000, but if CarMax is offering $10,500, I’d probably ask $12k. Just tell buyers that you could sell it to CarMax today for $10,500 and then they’d mark it up to like $14k or whatever for resale. That way you get a lil more money than CarMax would give you and they’d get the car for cheaper they can get it anywhere else. Win win.
We sold a car to Carvana and the process was super quick and super easy. So that is honestly a quick $6k+ profit for you right there.
You should have removed the front inner fender liner from the car to avoid over spray. These details matter on a quality job. Also should have masked off the side rocker panel underside to the floor so that over spray doesn't get underside the car. Trust me silver is a very nasty color in terms of over spray! It goes everywhere 😞
I worry that a young mother with a child/baby may purchase this car. Is it as safe as it was when new? Structurally sound? Sorry to be a downer, genuine question.
Of course it isn't. If it was then he wouldn't look for a car that wasn't reported and he would get any paper to prove that he did good job on fixing it.
If you wet down the floor before spraying it will keep dust and debris from getting in the air and paint. It’s an old trick we used in our shop.
Amazing work, Zach. I'm always impressed with your talent. Painting is, indeed, very difficult.
Your channel is everything a car repair channel should be. From painting to now body repair! Keep it up
I wonder what you’d get at carmax and not even have to deal with selling hassle
Great video! you do fantastic work. You should look into one of those Vevor paint booths. (But I'm sure you already have)
I saw that fancy body shop in Chicago putting on new bumpers/panels then filling the body lines with filler and cutting new lines so they match up perfect when mounted on the car. Might be a strategy for using cheap panels in the future.
…you’ve turned that Prius’s frown upside down 😂😂😂
Great job Zac. You are a skilful hard worker. Great to watch.
You never disappoint us with your talents. Another great project.
How come those cars are so expensive? You would be lucky to get €1,500 in the UK
I think he would be lucky could sell it to anyone...
Besides Carmax try Peddle and Carvana, too. That's would add value to the last episode. Great job!
HE GONE AND DONE IT AGAIN FOLKS!!! What a transformation. That will sell very quickly. Congrats on expanding your comfort zone by getting uncomfortable with new skills.
Great job! You should get at least ten grand all day long!
Killing it man, always enjoyed your videos. One critique that can help with the future builds is to put kitty hair over those welds and sand it down before you put bondo so you have some moisture protection. I know it doesn’t matter much since it’s being flipped but you don’t half ass things so I figured this could be helpful information. Keep up the good work man
Nice change of direction to these wreck rebuilds. Great to see you making some money for your efforts. I like the other builds too. You do it, we'll watch it. Your comfort in front of the camera and presentation have improved sooooo much since you started. Great job.
Brother, that was your first major body work with cutting the panels and stuff??? If so thats insane you're an fn badass!!!!
Thanks Zach! Love your channel... content is always a pleasure to watch. Love your honesty, and your craftsmanship is top-notch! Great job!
Would love to work with you on your next project... cheers .. by the way am from sri lanka 🇱🇰 😊
Zach you have come so far from the jet ski days I love your work 🎉I can’t wait for the next vid so awesome kid 🎉
Zach, brother, I salute you. Too many people are comfortable with doing the bare minimum backyard restorations just so they can fill their pockets, but you have done what you can to avoid putting crap on the market. Great work man.
How nany cars can you srll at year without being required to get a dealer's license? I suppose you can have each of your parents "sell" cars too.
I say cut and buff the paint and ask $12k
Great job and perfect choice for a rebuild. High end cars are cool, but not as many buyers and parts are more expensive.
Wow, you've done an amazing job!!!!!
Well done Zach, your skills really coming to the fore.
The dirty armrest bugged me from day 1😅
Me too. 😂
Looks good to me... I would hire you to fix my Jeep if I wrecked it
Keep doing this content! You are so down to earth! And the content feels relatable
Zac you are an amazing artist, painter, body restorer, builder, mechanic etc your talents are uncountable God has blessed you with amazing talent , thanks for the great videos
Nice work, it looks great. Question: Am I right that you wet your floor during painting to avoid dust swirling up?
Amazing and the self critique shows such professionalism, however you're crazy - it looks amazing!!! Great job Zach.
Wow. Bodywork has to be one of the most annoying but satisfying things to do. You have to take your time and go through the steps or you don’t get the payoff. I have never pulled it off!!😂
Very interesting, enjoyed watching the repair, ya did a great job.........................
You did a awesome job on that car nice work.
Looks good. How many hours do you have into it total including sourcing and pulling parts?
Dudes got skills , much love from Scotland ❤
Young man you do amazing work. Your skillset is incredible. Don’t give this up. Please do more jobs like this.
@ultimaterebuilds7127 is a wizard! So crazy talented and has a high quality of detail with his work.
Great work. I used to do this and it’s a lot of work. But you didn’t do any wet sanding and polishing - that’s good paint job out of a garage!
Very nice as always. Where did you learn how to do body work?
The car looks fantastic. Great job!
Turned out awesome. $5400 is really good for that many hours.
Awesome job. Keep up the great work and content. 👍👍
Awesome restoration! Hope you get your price!! (give up the chewing tobacco)
Nice job 👏 on the silver surfer!
This is why ... you take your time to inspect the car your are buying and do your homework. Few minutes with a paint depth measuring tool will tell you that entire driver's side is repainted, the weld seams with body filler will be >500 microns in thickness and VIN stickers will be missing or mismatched on both doors and fender to the car's VIN.
Just because someone wanted to make "easy money" on "fixing" wrecked car... Terrible life for someone who just want to buy inexpensive car...
And the worst part is that he probably would make the same money just selling parts that are in good condition and that would take him less time and nobody would have to deal with car that shouldn't be brought buck on streets.
If the car costs more to repair than its worth then its deemed total loss by the insurance company and the title remains clean (which is what you have). If there was structural damage then that is when the title is branded.
Not reported, so he just sold without telling how badly it was damaged. And next time this car will be sold without telling that there was any damage.
Very good job, Zach.
Just one piece of advice...you have great content and editing..I like the car rebuilds. However i suggest you build 2 different youtube channels one for Cars and another for Boats. Car folks aren't too interested in boats..and Boat folks want boat content...you may turn off some audience because your putting boat material..and they just anxiously want your next car rebuild..Just an observation...otherwise nice Prius rebuild..😊👍👏
Dude. Mad props for your work ethic!!!
I like that shirt leave me alone
You really do amazing work. It looks beautiful. Good job.👍
Man you better give that think to carfax for 10.5 like yesterday. Easy money with no annoying flakes and low ballers
So much this! Trying to sell cars in my town is like pulling teeth, lowballers, tire kickers, ghosters, you name it I've faced it and I'm no car dealer! I would have kicked it to Carmax immediately and moved on to my next project, but based on the pinned comment it looks like Zach sold it already, good for him.
Well, there it is folks: Never buy from Carmax...
And triple check everything, because you never know if car was destroyed or not.
Dude this was such a fantastic video! I’ve been following you like 3 years(I think hopefully longer) and I never get tired of the content. You’re such a good painter man. It’s a true gift and you have the touch. Your paint jobs are so incredible on all your projects and yet you make it look. so. easy. Omg. Zach keep doing it man. I live in Georgia and if i ever run into you I would be stoked to meet you. Love everything you post. Love everything you’re doing. Just a big fan!
My OCD thanks you for painting the inside of the doors. Yellow, white, and silver behind the door panel would have kept me up at night 😅
Just gotta get that dealer decal off of there.
My man sanding without a dusk mask.
I wear a mask in the garage when sanding. Outside I don’t but really should.
Amazing work, lad! Nicely done.
Nice work and good videos. I was a professional car painter for 15 years in germany. Only points i would do different: Silver paintjobs final sanding with 800 grid machine and/or 1000 hand. Put some material inside the panels because of your welding after paintjob is done, before assembling the interieur. Wait a few days after painting before sticking vinyls to the paintjob, because the paint will gas out and can cause big problems.
The rest was really satisfying 🎉
Nice work, it is tough doing paint work in a garage!
Real back breaking work. Congratulations for bringing out such superb finished product.
Take Car Maxs deal . No come backs i.e. no one complaining about a problem with rattles , vibrations etc. And a huge Congratulations to you. I’ve said this before to you and gladly say it again , You Got Skills!
Solid 9500-10,000 vehicle with the accident on the record. No accidents would be top of the line. Great job
EDIT: Take that carmax offer. 10.5K = Great profit and quick turn around
I bought my daily that way. It was hot so hard the frame buckled and the front differential cracked the oil pan, the hit was directly to the bumper but missed the impact sensors so no bags deployed.
I replaced the frame from a light rollover truck and entire front clip and RF door from a truck of the identical color that was hit in the rear.
There are no reports in its vehicle history for any accidents,so that’s something people have to look out for,..I’ve been driving it for 3 years and what it’s been through is completely undetectable now just from weathering in together.
I give Zach so much credit. I would look at that car in it's previous state and be like "welp, that's a total loss" but he has the vision and talent to resurrect it. Great job.
Great work ❤
Another great project completed Alex, well done.
Zach! great job on the video, but just a quick recommendation: when you are sanding, try to use a mask all of that dust is extremely toxic for your lungs!
Your garage lighting is sick! ❤
Zach, great work and the end product is fantastic. I would echo a couple of comments already made that in the economic times we find ourselves in, I would focus on reliable transportation that is affordable for the average buyer. Toyotas, Hondas, and Nissans (without the CVT Transmission) are good options and will sell quickly. More importantly, they are good value for the buyer who probably needs good reliable transportation at a price point they can afford. No matter what, keep up the great work. I definitely prefer these videos vs pontoon boats.
Great work honestly man
Hello from Dronfield Derbyshire in the uk. I have just joined your channel and it’s so nice to see some one doing normal kind of cars instead of seeing expensive high end vehicles.
You did an amazing job on the car and a great paint job.
I was disappointed to see that you did not spray over the seam sealer in the trunk as you call it over there we just call it a back boot. Just an idea maybe you could put two strips of tape and then do the seam sealer as then it would look a lot nicer. Just an idea?.
I look forward to watching more car rebuilds.
Take care from Richard
Great job, I enjoyed the video and watching the progress (including the previous video). Only thing I dislikes was the sound / music, it's loud and distracting from the content (I fixed it by muting the video because I did want to see the content :D). Also the sound / video don't seem to quite match up, there is a noticeable delay between the sound and video (but that could also be a playback thing, not sure).
Just wanted to leave those points as feedback, but overall great video and it did turn out very nice indeed!
Hi, nice work!!
Could you please give me the door vinyl p/n? I need to remove it on my matrix 2010 to repair rust under it...
Tks!
Greetings from Ukraine, A difficult job but well done, keep up the good work. I hope to see many more of your incredible restorations. Keep yourselves.
I am glad to see you doing cars like this keep it going
if carmax will give you 10.5 you can sell it for 13 kbb is horseshit
Amazing work...good job. Dump the crappy sound track though.
I've seen insurance companies salvaging a car with much less damage. Sorry but that is borderline fraud is definately misleading to call that a clean title. That car took a lot of damage.
Great job as always
sick rebuild man great job
It's worth every bit of money your asking. Super nice repair video I learned a good many ideas from your video. Sharp looking car.
car looks great thanks
Ahh, clean title, that works! I commented on your previous video about the lost value because the salvage/rebuilt title there in FL. But clean title negates that! Nice
That car 100% illegal here in Malaysia after local celebrity complain he feel cheated
Such an AWESOME vid! I never really liked the Prius but you made it look great an i almost want to buy one now.
ask 10K
For what it is, it came out ok but i do see the hue difference from original paint to new. New is brighter than old is darker so myght have a little more blue into the og paint. But still ok.
