    The reasons those cars are there is so body shops can make a fortune fixing those wrecks. The DIY guys make it look easy because they are talented and knowledgeable. and also you remind me of the actor Lewis Skolnick a very good actor.

    I worked for an insurance company for a long time, they don't end up totaled unless they deserve to be. Also, I don't know about that place, but some of these auction lots play games with the keys. We did an investigation once and got a bunch of people fired because they were hiding keys, so they could sell them cheap to their friends

    • @hullinger
      @hullinger  3 роки тому +5

      Ohhhh, that makes perfect sense about the keys. At other auctions I've seen fuses pulled and fuel pumps disabled to make the cars less attractive and cheaper to buy.

  • @1982MCI
    @1982MCI 3 роки тому

    Insurance companies have been totaling cars the past year that normally wouldn’t be totaled due to body shops not being able to get parts in a timely manner. Some of these foreign cars like that Porsche and the Audi’s may take dang near a year right now to get parts and so it’s better for the insurance company to just cut the owner a check for the car and let them go get something else instead of dealing with unhappy owners over a repair taking so long tho. But that Porsche would be a fantastic car if you could snag it for the right price tho. It would be well worth repairing and even taking awhile but you need to get it at 25% less than your normal price would be because your gonna possibly have it tied up for a bit waiting on parts. I would check to see if parts availability is getting better tho too, it may be by now.
    Either way tho, good luck on whatever you get. The caprice would be a good one too. There’s a strong, strong market for those dressed up that way. Not my cup of tea but the green it brings us so I can love it long enough to convert into the green for me!! But, it’s definitely an 111k mile car for sure, not the 11k you thought may be original. The definite give away is the carpet along side the drivers seat on the floor, it’s just worn too damn bad for 11k miles. Another good indicator to mileage is to look at the rubber on the brake/clutch pedals. If a car has 100k or more on it then almost always you’ll see the lower right hand corners of those peddles that the rubber will be either worn thru to the metal underneath or nearly worn thru but at 11k, you will see hardly any wear at all yet. Now this is not totally foolproof, someone may have gotten replacement rubber pads to put on them but it will be about 90-95% accurate. A car like this if it ran, you could flip easily in a day or two for a nice little profit without doing much at all. There’s a huge market for them but remember tho, this is not a DONK! Those guys get pretty upset when you call a box a donk and Vice Versa. The dinks are going to be your mid 70’s caprice, impala’s, etc. this is what I think they call the box but I’m not absolutely sure either. But it could be a good resale no matter what and those guys that are into them actually pay stupid money for them.
    Take care and be safe out there

    That Caprice would have been a great flip if the price would have been right... Forgiato wheels sell for alot. Those looked like 26s with the matching steering wheel. 4k easy on the low end, not including the car. The car another 2-3k It looked like it had a nice stereo system too. Back dash panel had the 6x9s and the seats were redone, I bet the headliner was too if they did the dash. Custom built center console...
    You should have popped the hood so we could have seen that engine bay. You gotta do your homework when you see cars. Some can have a 5 grand set up in engine work, stereo systems, or rims and it would fly right over your head.

    The way I understand it insurance companies will total a car if its destruction is more than 30% of the value.
    Sometimes if you get total failure of all electrical components it's due to rats or mice or even squirrels chewing up all kinds of wiring.
