Thanks for the guidance brother.. it is really helpful π
π πgood job chris
what websites would you recommend for buying car parts especially for the fuse in the first example, fyi just started working on cars. Thanks again for these amazing vids I have learned so much thanks to you!
The vandalized Chrysler 200 had to be a cheaters special π€£π
That transition was so clean at 13:51
One thing I thought of was to make sure the door seals and window seals are good before washing so you donβt get your hard work wet ππΌ 32:20
Iβve rewinded this so many times. WOW 39:14
He don't miss π³
I wish I could buy a car from you
Chrisfix I have learned so much from you buddy, with all the great videos over the years. Keep up the great work. I hope to meet one dayg God Bless my friend!π
Reminds me of Wheeler Dealers
How did u know there was sugar in the tank?
All i need is a toolboxπππ
Reply in my comment if you just watched the trailblazer vidio
"morgage"? π
set of tires and $300 chrome wheels increases value by $3.5k
i see the same year model in craiglist for $12k
I used 3 in 1 polished wax and it still leaves streaks on the surface. how to remove it?
just wait until the IRS hears you're flipping cars
Tire cleaner in tandem with a pressure works great to get rid of any kind of paint, I just started working at a autobody shop starting out on detailing and we got a vandalized car just like that. Note that spraying it on any aluminum will turn it black and a pain to get rid of. I learned the hard way as most people do with cars
Back in my early 20s I did this to vacation and it was relatively worth it because it only took 12-16 hrs of work into it 4-5 weeks and the car is good to go usually, only had one car where I had to do an engine and transmission swap but I got it fully done in 9 weeks. Sold the car I got originally for 3,900.00 (with the new engine and transmission just not in the car) and flipped it for 7,500.00 plus I sold him the system that was in it from before for an additional 700.00 for a grand total of 8,200.00!
Last car I got I lost money on but it was because I used it as a moving truck for a week and drove it about 4k miles! Bought for 3,000.00 and out 2,000.00 into it and sold it for 4,900.00
for cars with titles do you transfer it under your name or keep it as is?
23:06 new pedal covers are cheap enough and then spray paint the control arms after covering all areas around them one does not want painted.
44:40 You NEED new Tires. Look at thos cracks. No matter what depth you have. They are probably old and get brittle over time und sun.
my mechanic wasn't happy when i told him i did it with a youtube video
Hey man do you know any sites like the one you use to find cars to flip in America for Australia
Instant subscription, and Iβm not even through the whole video yet
Hey Chrisfix can you unfold how you look like? Really wanna see how you look like. Love your videos!
When chris talks about if tires need replaced, incase of the general altimax rt43 that were on the prius, where it says "replacement tire monitor" down the center, it will actually lose the words "ment and monitor" and say "replace tire" not every tire is like that though lol
Awesome video!
I went ahead and subscribed.
Two questionsβ¦
It looked one time you used trade in value and the other time you used kelly blue book valueβ¦.which do you use to determine price you will pay?
Also are there any brands or makes of vehicle you totally avoid?
So, in short. Are you saying that the Chrysler 200 isn't as sweet as it used to be?
Hey Chris! Don't you pay taxes on these flips? I don't hear you mention taxes at all!
Do you need experience to do this or is it ok if you have no experience?
I wanna know your negotiation tactics. Got the first car down 500,and the second down 800. sheesh
Bro whatever. The odds of it just being a fuse. lol no
Watched the video from start to finish.
Now I want to know what kind of tape you use. Asking this so the car paint won't be peeled when removing the tape
How did you learn everything about cars
These dudes are GOATED π₯π₯ Keep up the good work
How did u clean the car so it looked like that,
The area at 23:18, if you have a small shop blower, you can blow out the debris, then vaccum what came out of there.
I'm only 15 and I haven't even completed secondary school yet but my favourite things in the world are cars and I know what I'm going to do once I'm old ebough to thanks man!.
where do you get the extractor vacuum?
First car I ever seen whose 0-60 time was "don't wait up"
That sounds like an exciting way to live.
