Restoring A Cheap Neglected Tesla Roadster To Make A MASSIVE Profit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this episode of Art Of The Flip, we buy a very neglected 2010 Tesla Roadster, but it's not just any Tesla Roadster - it's a Japanese import that was one of the first 12 that were exported to Japan, a batch of cars known as the "Signature 12." It also only has 5,000 original miles on it, so if we can get this looking presentable, it may return an absolutely insane profit.
But there's a lot of work before that happens.

we need more videos where they at?
Thanks for wasting my time, from when is washing a car called a restoration?
He literally did a full paint restoration. Wtf is wrong with you dude? Go find another channel to bother.
@michaelrockwell9691 i already did dont worry about that.
“If you’re in a place with hard water, water softener is recommended” Me: how do you wash a car with ice anyway???
Cleaned the PPF thoroughly, and then removed it?
I didn't like the car at the start of the video but after you finished it. It looks great 👍
This was a detailing video, and what we really like is fixing stuff videos. How did you fixed the charging issue? Why Rex removed the dashboard? That’s what’s interesting
Those breaks look like mountain bike breaks ... hahah
Rex needs to get some pants that cover his ankles
Love it. I'd love to see the same video but with more screen time with Rex actually being Rex along with Tavarish there too. You guys make a great duo.
Rex got skills! Great Video guys! Hope to see more in the future.
More like, the epoxy on the roof panel yellowed in the sun.🤔😳
9:23 Jeez & I thought wrestling with a roll of clear shipping tape was a pain in the ass.
Great job just shows what a bit of elbow grease can do was it based on a lotus by any chance? Looks very similar?
Nice to see another great channel, subscribed to your third channel at 45.2k subscribers
But I still gotta ask what’s going on with the p1 😂
Why no upgrade battery? Tesla started selling them after the Roadster was discontinued.
Rex you nailed that paint work and taught me at the same time how to go about doing my car which I've been putting off, Thank you!
I'm still mind boggled. Freddy has a third channel!??
YOU CAN LITERALLY EAT OFF OF THE SURFACE LEFT OVER! Yeah...that's how soap works too, man. The "molecular level" dry ice cleans to isn't different than the level any other surfactant cleans to.
this is just a big advertisement for G Technic! BOOOOO!
So the machine magicabally started charging? Seems the seller either had a bad charging cable or something simple.\
Love it. I’m definitely still waiting on episode two can’t wait for that.
Freddy is this an ai voice trained on your voice or did you take lessons for narration?
Congratulations on the third channel. I will be watching all of them. 👍🏼
Should've sold it before you ended the video. I want to know for how much it actually sold
Nice job! Was it necessary to wash the PPE before removing it? Was it washed again after removal?
Love it, Rex is the main man
Wasn't this already on 2varish?
The only beautiful car Tesla has ever made. And that is because Musk had absolutely nothing to do with it.
I am pro EV and was pro Tesla but I wish Tesla would go out of business
You need some content bro! you just plugged this channel on your other channel and all you have is a month old video and 1 video.. hmm.
Nice work guys - but I’m perplexed, why bother with the cleaning efforts BEFORE removing the film? Surely a waste of time and resources!
Please sir, I want some more.
Hey guys, you should get in touch with Baumgartner Restoration, he restores paintings on an insane level!! Knows all about solvents as well. He’ll surely be able to give you some ideas about the PPE.. Good luck with the channel!
This guy reminds me of Freddy from tavarish
What about the battery replacement lol
Mate did ya detail the interior as well and decided nah it ain’t interesting enough?😭
Hey Rex, my pickup could use your treatment, I'll pay you in beer and pizza.. 😆
I would hand wash from top of the wheel well around the car and above. Light rinse. Then hand washing below that line to avoid any chance of dragging debris from the road accros the upper surface of the car.
Why not remove the wheels to better detail them and inspect the brakes and suspension? Most cannot afford to dry ice their cars.
It's a shame that people are full of bullsh1t, specially American car culture. The stuff you said just at the beginning about value are FUD spread by media to fulfill they agendas that your gracefully swallowed where the truth is that they devalue just like any other car. Coming from a former petrolhead is kinda sad seeing these dudes talking nonsense and not opening their minds to the changing world. PS: thanks for restoring this PIECE OF AUTOMOTIVE HISTORY. I don't care a Fu*k about disagree with me. Have fun trashing the comment.
"just" 35,000 dollars
You mention period correct radio, but looking through period blog posts, it looks like 7" Alpine VIE-X08S infotainment WAS the factory unit for the car. Foreign made infotainment in Japan is still sketchy, so a lot of imported cars had aftermarket units as the stock back in 2010. Tesla back then was absolutely one of many such brands.
Hello, my friend. We greatly admire your expertise in automobiles, and we're wondering if we would be lucky to collaborate with you on an in-car radio project. Are you interested? ATOTO car audio.
Satisfying as f*** ^^
I feel a collab should be done with that UA-cam channel Upflip.
Hi Rex, watching from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Freddy you did very nice but it's to short man!
Relaxing to see Rex do his thing.
