    You can rebuild an alternators for about $30. It's extremely simple to do, it's one bolt on part and replace the bearings that are included in the kit. Buy a can of electrical contact cleaner to clean out the inside of the alternator after it's disassembled (4 bolts). When you buy an alternator at the local auto parts store they are simply rebuilding them (outsourced) with the same kit you can buy online and charging you $100 - $300 for one hour of manual labor. The same goes for rebuilding your old fuel injectors, it's just replacing tiny Orings and tiny filters for $15 total for all 8 fuel injectors. It's so low cost it's almost free.

    what a home run, incredible. they probably said it was scrap metal cuz its a car over 2 decades old but they must not know how crown vics work..one of the most durable and reliable cars ever made..great video man

    Incredible video man, this was such a crazy flip. I can't believe the car had so few problems for sitting for so long and being listed as not running and for scrap. I can't wait to see what the next car is that you got in a bidding war over. Keep up the outstanding work man.

    Macho, Crown vic's are a profit machine in just about any condition. If it is just a parts car Ford F100 builders will pay $400 just for the front end suspension. And will also want the rear end so that the bolt patterns match front to rear. Bigger money if it is a posi rear end. Take it from me I am a F100 builder. Great job finding a low mile one. They usually have near 250,000 miles on them. That's why this one sold so fast. Great job!

    I was just watching you talking about the batteries on how you like to cook them like that. That works great till they explode in your face like my boss when I worked at the gas station don't do that brother the chances are slim but not worth it. On the good side I was just watching this other RUclipsr and he was exploring on he's been using these girls batteries for like 30 years and all he does is pop the Caps let them boil shut them off and repeat and they've been going for literally 20 years plus. He explains all of them even if they claim to be sealed if you look closely or not. I'll try and find you the link. Turn it up on high with the Caps off until they boil like six times and let it relax in between if I remember. Like I said he claimed to have been doing this for 20-plus years. To the same batteries🎉
