      @@gilbertfranklin1537 You would think Randy would catch that just from seeing how slow his subscriber count is building now, and how much the views on his videos has dropped off since he started getting drunk on UA-cam money and making pointless videos everybody keeps saying they don't want to see. Dude had potential before he lost his way.

    Wow, great video! In 17 min you went to an auction, bought a car, showed us a 60 mile drive including highway and being stuck in traffic. Polished up the headlights, washed the thing and put it up for sale. Then gave us an update on the Mariner and the Datsun. Good job covering so much, so fast without it feeling rushed.

    • @williamsinger4124
      @williamsinger4124 4 роки тому +2

      Yes, if the vehicle is taken care of, the mileage is just a number. My daily driver is a 03 avalanche. Has 180k. Trans was rebuilt at 150, the previous owner towed with it. Upgraded parts etc. No rust, every single thing works. 4 matching tires, grease able fittings on everything etc. Paid 7k. I live in upstate NY, dealers charge 7 for one that age and mileage with rust under the cladding, clear peeling etc. That van would fetch 3 to 4 k up here.

    • @bdpopeye
      @bdpopeye 4 роки тому +2

      I really don't expect he can get more than 2 grand because of the high miles even though what you posted is the Blue Book range. I say ask $2700. Weird beard knows his customers and how much they will pay. Lets see what shakes out.

    • @williamsinger4124
      @williamsinger4124 4 роки тому +1

      @@bdpopeye ohh yeah, 27 ain't bad for it either. I was just referring to smaller dealers who do a fair amount of vehicles. Here in NY, for every inch of snow, they lay down 3 of salt. So the fact that it works perfectly, and isn't rotted, the next owner is likely to pay a bit more for a solid car, and it'll physically last several years up here. So if it breaks, they're more inclined to fix it

    You always put in WORK and NEVER afraid to do it. Very good to see a couple clean pieces come your way. You do fantastic detail work. Remember, "people buy things that look nice" cuz they have to show their friends. I'm the opposite. On those headlights, your restore came out great. I find they tend to cloud back up in 6 months. One time try what I do and after cleaning them, CLEAR COAT them - even for a flip is the money warrants it. Thank you for another! Sonny (CT)

    Great job on the Mariner congratulations. This chevy mini van came out looking nice! I think if you put it up for $2500 so that you can get that $2000 that you want. A customer will always want to go back N forth on the price. So if you ask a bit more? That way the customer will drive away thinking he/she the the deal of the year. Love the work you put into a flip. Love the befor and after. Keep up the great job.

    Mike, another place to look for great, low mileage cars is at an assisted living facility.

It wouldn't hurt to visit a nearby facility to determine if the staff knows if any vehicles are being advertised on their bulletin boards or flyers.
