This rebuilt Terrain looked bad on the surface but what is underneath is worse

- If you thought the surface looked bad on this Terrain wait until we find out what is lurking beneath all that body filler, under the carpet and behind the trim panels. The rebuild industry has certainly changed over the years. Work like this is becoming far too common. It will add a little time to the build but we can get it all fixed and back to good condition, safe and reliable once again.

all Body men are the same, It is ok for me to use Bondoc but no body else better use it! i have worked with Body men for 40 years an every one are the same!
I don’t mind people using body filler but use it correctly. If you think this was anything near correct, let me know so I can tell people to avoid whatever shop you work at that thinks this is an acceptable repair! 😳
@@vehcor i have seen it over and over again body men will run down someone else but do the same thing in some situations! It is real easy to pick on some one else! But most are not prefect! like it or not it is a fact!
@@vehcor I think you found the guy who did that old job lol...
You must be insane comparing vehcor with the person who sculpted the previous repair.... 😵🤯 did you actually not see the amount of bondo used?
No they most certainly are NOT all the same. A statement like you have made puts the speaker in the camp of plastering tack welders and papier mache rust repairers who believe it is the right & proper thing!
Always nice to see somebody who really knows what they're doing at work
Thanks!
Isn’t this more of a hobby?
@@bradschuh4618 This one is "In the name of Content"...
Been waiting all week for the follow up. Looks like the person who " reshaped " the rear 1/4 panel was more of a plasterer than a vehicle repair man ?
Nigel Hopkinson wow, so original lol he said that joke in the video😂
Maybe you’ve said before, but I’m curious how much time on average it takes to edit your videos. Your editing and voiceovers set your videos above so many others. And the dry humor doesn’t hurt either. I love to watch you work.
A lot. This was four hours of video. I think it took me around 10 hours to edit then do the voice over and re-watch it for the third time all the way through. I spend more time editing than I do rebuilding. lol
@@vehcor It shows. This was engrossing to watch. Why would I ever watch this lol, but it was good.
@@vehcor Effort into editing shows. Thank you. Think about my old employer when I see Bondo used like that. No, it wasn't a good experience. Yes, the went out of business.
@@vehcor It shows, great work editing! I hate doing the voiceovers more than splicing the videos.
@@vehcor But that's how come 134 THOUSAND of us LOVE you (and counting)! Your fault for being so good and THANKS for it all. Sonny (CT)
This guy is the only one I wold buy a rebuildt car from here on UA-cam!
Great work!
Thanks for the confidence in my work!
Yes, love his vids and styles, and the voice is relaxing, other yt piss me off
I was thinking the same thing.
I agree completely. Knows more about how to put these cars together than even the factory.
You need to watch the Arthur Tussik channel
I have been a panel beater for over forty years and wished I could say I've never seen horrendous repairs like that before, but I have...many times..
Hello from the UK
Me too and it seems to be getting more common.
You ruined all the work the last guy did!
@@vehcor I am semi retired now, but still keep my hand in as I do the specialist aluminum work. The company I work for are Tesla, VW Audi and BMW approved..
Don't know what its like in the States but here in the UK there's a lack of skilled people coming through so owners end up having the cars repaired through Fred in The shed outfits, and this is where the problem is.
You wouldn't believe the amount of training I had to do to work on Tesla's.
Love what you do...ohh, and by the way I use a Caroliner Jig the same as you.
@@NHHalKnowsHow THANKFULLY!
Im restoring a 65 pontiac at the moment and am not exaggerating one bit when i say the car returned from the blasters with a right rear quarter that looked like it had been removed , layed on a gravel drive and run over several times with a forklift.
Filler was well over quarter inch thick in places.
You do the best editing, narration combined with a great sense of humor. Plus the best how to videos I've seen on UA-cam. Ignore the hater's.
Thanks for the support. I do love trolling the haters though. lol
@@vehcor ahem, Mustang?
Fully agreed. The content is excellent... 360°.
Thanks for posting "The Hall of Shame".
Pictures and videos don't do this work justice! It needs to be in a museum. lol
It’s comforting to see there’s still people out there who actually care and take pride in their work. We’re a dying breed.
And then there are these uncultured art negs tearing all that quality work apart to put things back to factory spec. Lol.
Damn what a hack job . I wonder if it was a hack "body shop" that did the so called "repairs" for a customer and charged them for it. Or if it was a back yard hacker that did a cut and stuff to sell to some unsuspecting buyer . It will be fixed properly when you are done Scott . You do good work man and I appreciate your videos . Thumbs UP to you.
I fear that is was probably a shop. The backyard hackers are getting more common these days though. Thanks for watching!
@@vehcor i have seen used car dealers buy from an auction and do what's necessary just to get car ready even if its wrong on all levels
But putting a car back in the road without air bags and no fully functional seat belt it’s just unacceptable.
@@paulog8813 It was been accptable for them, i guess.
I suspect it was a insurance paid shop. They were given a budget to fix it and these people were the cheapest.
The way you pulled those interior parts out, makes me think you have done this many many times. Great to watch a pro doing his thing.
Love to see quality work and the humor you provide makes it more enjoyable.
Thanks!
I think people like giving you shit because you are good at what you do. I think your dry humor approach is perfect. Keep on keeping on.
I actually can sit here and enjoy watching you fix a vehicle properly . Yourself and that other guy on you tube arthur tussik are the 2 i can sit thru a entire episode from start to finish and can say these guys do it right.
I’m glad your keeping perfectly serviceable vehicles from the crusher and making good money In the process. It fun to watch the progress, it must give you great satisfaction on a job well done.
Nice job removing the used parts for the rebuild. That can be pretty tricky some times........ you make that look easy. I find that the most time consuming part of the rebuild. Thanks for the video.
All just part of the job. Thanks for watching.
For a young man looking to get in the body trade you'd make a good teacher.
Thanks for the detailed videos and of course for showing the RIGHT way to do things. There are many ways to do things, but many involve cutting corners for the sake of speed and profit. .. My rule of thumb is, "If I won't put my family in the car after I fix it, I did it wrong"
29:55....And now I will play for you the song of my people!!!
Great video as usual. As a long-time Autoglass guy, it's nice to see someone who knows what he's doing.
It’s a good thing I’m in a big concrete box or the neighbors would be pissed! 😂 Thanks for the support!
It's like watching the automotive version of Holmes on Homes. "Totally unacceptable!" as Mike Holmes would say.
... and John Holmes said: :Open wide baby !"
you never cease to amaze , you are multi-talented on so many levels , thank you for these videos
Scott your the benchmark for your trade. Sorry to saddle you with that burden but it's true. You earned it. Bravo!!
I watch every single second of your videos. Your videos have replaced sport for me. Great content and very educational.😇🤗
Thanks!
No anthem kneeling here, son!
Nice job sir, working on a Terrain myself, thank you for the video!
Good luck with your build.
Looks like you spent more time repairing the last "repairs" than fixing the damage from the current accident. It sure looks like that welding was done with a stick welder, not a MIG. The previous repair is "unbelievable". I'll be glad to see the Terrain repaired properly this time. Really handy that you have all those parts cars. Sounds like you repair a lot of Terrains. All the best from Queensland Australia.
These Terrains are very popular around here. I have rebuild a few dozen of them. It is jobs like this that make me understand your write offs over there. Take care from the USA!
That car was a death trap. Shame the previous botch job professionals!!! Could not be held accountable..... Great video... Keep them coming.... :)
I am impressed by the high quality of your rebuilds! Thanks for the videos I really enjoy. If I was in the market for a Terrain Denali, I would not hesitate to buy it.
Thanks for the support!
Great video shame there to short could watch you work all evening 👍I also think that all the others trying to do fix it videos all they do is chat what they are going to do and then you see it’s fix lol Fridays is a what I look forward to GREAT WORK 👍👍
Thanks for the support!
Love watching the door latch vibrating around at 13:40, shows how well it was fixed! I wonder if the people who's car it was for the newest crash have seen this and realised what deathtrap they were driving round in, few more mph in the crash, bit more force, and that rear could have severely collapsed in, as it had already lost most of it's structural strength due to the folds in the floor and panels and the lovely 'rebuilt' bits, nice job, with lots of zippies,wheeee! Did worry the pile might reject, and throw back, some of the more embarrassingly bodged bits!
The scrap yard might refuse the load because it is contaminated with too much body filler. lol
Today was the first video that I realised you're saying 'car aligner', not that it's a Caroliner brand machine. This build has been a good one so far, great to see all that bad work getting undone and redone properly.
That’s some rough Terrain.
that is an underrated comment my dude
😂👍🏻
I had to laugh when you nearly smacked your head when the rear bumper came loose. It's all good
I almost ended up on my butt! 😂
Scott, hats off to you for doing a great and perfect rebuild! I find it so hard to believe that there are
those out there doing such "crap" to the cars. Well, I believe it now. Thanks for your beautiful work and taking us through it step by step. I always found great satisfaction when I worked on cars to do the right thing at its best. Thanks for sharing with us all. Rich
To me seeing a quality finished product is a reward by itself. I can't imagine what these people think. Do they brag about this kind of work? lol Thanks for the support!
They need to watch this channel and take notes.
Nothing like having spare parts around to fix cars, great job 👍
It certainly helps keep costs down.
An old friend used to run a salvage yard and body shop. Saved them a ton of money since so many parts were sourced in-house.
Another guy I knew rebuilt Impalas like Scott rebuilds Grand Ams. He had 10+ in a warehouse so most parts were almost free.

That Terrain is going on a weight-loss program losing all that bondo!
Fearless. Any job worth doing is worth doing right.😎. The last shop should be ashamed of their crappy work.
Been there done that from 1968 to 2005 other than time in the army. Biggest thing was getting paid for everything Carry on man !!!!
Love the new color on the hammer, can't miss finding it when it's laying around. Save the hater tears for me, I'll have a pool to fill up soon!
Words you always never want to hear, "Wait, it gets worse"
I think people are taking that as a challenge these days! “I can do worse than that, hold my beer!” 😂
@@vehcor hold my bondo 😂
I'd say "someone's been here before" is worse...
At least this means that one badly repaired vehicle gets to be put right and made safe. Thanks so much for taking the time to show us what you do.
I'm enjoying the humor. This is the 2nd video I've watched from you and seeing things done properly earned my sub. That being said you are the only one I would buy a rebuilt vehicle from.
"...but go ahead and tell me how to do my job." LOL!

@@vehcor For the rest of your life...and your children's life ...and their children's life!!
Hard working Man, well done there mister.
Talk about extremely flammable. I remember working at a shop and this kid (greenhorn) rubberized undercoated the inside of a quarter panel from inside the trunk and closed it.this was a full sized older car and he then proceeded to do some welding on the dogleg on the same side he just undercoated. Never guess what happened. The fireball was spectacular. 😁
Those fireballs are always fun to watch from another bay... on someone else's car. lol
@@vehcor You got that right 🤣
Those hacks from the first accident need to go into your “pile” !
I'd rather watch failed repair rebuilds than the mustang project... hopefully this counts as another week...
Don’t worry, you already scored 2 more weeks from other comments in this video already. 😂
@@vehcor 🤬🤬 The Mustang..... I’m cursing you in Portuguese so you can’t understand. 🤣
"failed repair rebuild" - whatever the fuck you think that means. A repair depends on what you have and what you can spend on it. Saving my car from the crusher long enough for it to get me to work and the grocery store long enough to continue making the payments and rent for a while is an unqualified successful repair.
You fanboys on this site drool over this term "rebuild" like it came out of the mouth of your interior designer "husband" thing. I have never heard of a repair shop doing an auto-body "rebuild".
You folks surely must be confused and mean auto-body RESTORATION.
Dont let the amateur's dis on you, Your patience, knowledge and the end result of your work speaks for itself..I look forward to every video...
Great work Scott, repaired properly, unlike the previous bodge. I repair cars in the UK and I've started using your sayings, someone's been here before, is the one i use the most!
Ugh, that’s the worst one! 😂
“I wonder what’s inside the console?” We’ll find out later!
Yes we will!
Most likely more structural bondo.... :-)
Probably a can of bondo. Just in case something came apart. 🤣
Free bondo coupons 😂

There are quite a few absolute craftspeople over there in USA, Mr Spotty's boss is one of the best. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills with us every week.
Many thanks!
I’m really enjoying this. It’s a shame about the previous “repairs” as it gives your whole industry a bad name. It doesn’t help that insurance companies keep screwing the prices they pay to panel shops. All the insurance companies are interested in is that it looks good and that the customer doesn’t complain. I found a reputable company locally that I took my car to. They told me that I could come by at anytime unannounced and look at the repairs they were doing. I explained that I was concerned about how the body sealant would look and they showed me a box of nozzles to suit various manufacturers. I called in a couple of time and was very happy with what I saw and when I got the car back you really couldn’t tell it had been repaired. There wasn’t even any tell tale over spay to be seen anywhere. Unfortunately I’ve had to go to them several times over the years and their work is always excellent. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺
"Insurance approved body shop" wonder what other people got from those type of shops. lol
Insurance approved body shop usually means a cheap repair.
Someone threw diluted paint on my freshly painted car. My friend who has a shop was able to buff it off the body but said the vinyl roof would need repainting and gave the $800 estimate to the appraiser. He rejected it even though it was less than the actual price. The appraiser said to take it to "their shop" and the estimate was $400, or about 1/3 what it would cost at my friend's shop. I went there, asked him if he could do it all for $400 and after he stopped laughing he asked me if I was on drugs as it would be at minimum $1600.
Showed him the appraisal from the adjuster and he thought the guy was out of his mind.
I have a car from one of those shops the frame is bent
Man O Man, the "somebody's been here before" needs to get out of the business cuz they sure suck at it. Anyway, and a take-away from Mike Holmes, (you'll) "make it right." Good job. 👍👍👍
BROTHER YOU DO GREAT WORK!! COMMENTING ON IGNORANT PEOPLES COMMENTS MAKES YOU SEEM INSECURE....
YOU’RE GREAT AT WHAT YOU DO THAT WILL SPEAK FOR ITSELF!!!! PLEASE KEEP MAKING MORE GREAT VIDEOS BROTHER!!!!
It's nice to see the repair done correctly.
Are all your videos sponsored by bondo or just a coincidence? 😁
Saw couple of your videos, great job!
I think bondo sponsored the last rebuilder! 😂
I'm building an entire car from bondo just to cut out the middle man.
None of that pesky metal to contaminate your bondomobile! 😂
I just finished filling in a big missing piece of the plastic outside mirror housing on my wife's car using bondo. It's kind of fun forming and shaping that stuff. It's addictive after a while.
vehcor-By far the most well done, enlightening and entertaining UA-cam channel of its kind.
Experience is the best teacher.
Well at least the engines on these are pretty good… Oh wait.
Actually if you change the oil, they are pretty good. I blame GM for bending to the lazy people and allowing ridiculous oil change intervals.
@@vehcor Well that applies to a whole range of GM vehicles like the 3.6 and AFM V8s. But on the 2.4 if the water pump goes bad that’s a lot of fun also.
@@vehcor My girlfriend drives a 2012 Malibu with the 2.4 LE5. She got it new and It's been a pretty bad experience. (The edits are because I'm having to remember everything I've replaced or fixed). I change the oil when the computer says 30% because that's usually around 4,000 miles and 6 months. The computer let the first oil change go 6,000 miles in about 10 months.
Despite that, one of the nylon timing guides snapped in half where the fastener passes through at 60,000 miles. Luckily I was driving and heard the clatter in time to save the engine. It was squeaky clean in there when I opened it up to clean out the broken up nylon, replace the chain, guides, and tensioner. Shortly thereafter, the exhaust manifold cracked in half. Then the flange broke off the exhaust above the catalyst at the weld. Both rear brake calipers have developed slow leaks and left the car stranded with no brake fluid and they destroyed the clear-coated alloy wheel in the process. The variable cam solenoids have both died, once each. The parking brake pedal ratchet lock mechanism has worn out twice, making it so you can't set the parking brake. One front wheel bearing has failed. All the speakers have died at least once, and replacing the power mirror switch is a yearly thing. Also, all the hard plastic interior panels like the a pillar, steering wheel center cover, sail panels, etc. have leached their plasticizers and become irreversibly sticky and gross, so they're perpetually caked in dust, hair, pollen, polyester fibers, etc. and can't really be cleaned. I've never had a car kick me in the balls constantly like this one has. I can't wait to see it go. I definitely won't own another GM product if I can help it.
that's the kind of work you get when you take your car to your insurance's preferred body shop.
Yep! Years ago I did that after my car was recovered after being stolen. The shop that “fixed” it couldn’t even manage to use a matching interior door panel - and this wasn’t some exotic antique, it was a 4 year old Nissan!
This is the kind of work you get from a shop that says they will cover your deductible.
I am certain it was in a wreck but from the looks of it, it was worse the first time and no one likes a second unless its a grandma cookie. Glad that you do this as it opens my eye to what some repairs do as a after effect in the events of accidents an life jeopardy
You do a stupendous job man!! 👍 You commented in the beginning on people who tell you that you are doing certain procedures wrong. I am sure you know but, people do that to feel better about themselves. They need to express that they know something about what you are doing. But it also a perfect indicator of their mentality. Mature people watch and learn or watch and be entertained. Others.... Need to argue or correct others 😉 LoL
Welcome back to "Somebody's Been Here Before Friday"
Of all the so called car builders on YT, I’d actually buy a car that you rebuilt.
Impressed, take your time and do it right this is why quality body work is expensive but so worth it!!!
Hilarious, hard work, and impressive professionalism
Favorite youtuber and rebuilder
Thank you for the title!
I was rendered utterly speechless when you pulled that dogleg off. I have never seen anything quite like that.
Coming back better than new. Awesome work
Great job . And im glad u are repairing that last bodged half assed attempt . That guy had obviously no respect for anyones life doin what or not doin what he did . Scary shit
Fun to watch a pro do his magic. You make it look so easy.
Yes, how about when he merely taps stuff and it is replaced. Ain't that amazing? He gives Shin Lim a run for his money! I wonder if he will ever reveal how he does that? Probably not. Why spoil the act, right? ;)
Thanks!
Your seemingly high level of patience is incredible.
I admire the lengths you go thru to make everything correct. All that bondo reminded me of my first truck, looked sharp at first but things started showing up. Cracks , uneven ness. Welp one day i sed ill fix it. Boy , they used a whole galon of bondo on the door alone. The truck was hit from drivers door to pickup box. Bed side replaced, door skin added. Then it was hit a second time same place. They just bondoed everything , no replacing metal, about 4" thick on the door alone. I was gonna buy new doors , but the truck started having mechanical issues, so i fixed it best as i could n spray bombed it.
Hey Scott....you always do first class work!!! Superb workmanship!!
Who ever put on the Bondo/Filler probably used a Shovel given the amount you removed then shaped it using a House Brick because it had such a lovely texture to it. You did look so happy Scott working on that Car lol
You make it look so easy but for sure it's hard , you are really smart hard worker and honest .
Rewarding work is never easy but it is fun. Thanks for the support.
It's nice to watch someone who takes pride in their work. You sir don't get enough credit. Great job!
Really informative. The humor is spot on.
That car certainly had some major damage . Nice job , you certainly know what your doing . Nice job👍
Awesome video. I am not a body-guy, but I sometimes repair small items. You have shown many good techniques that will be very useful. I have done many home renovations, auto repair and re-engineered equipment, so I feel this whole process. It always sucks to see 'patch repairs'.
I can't believe what was hiding behind all that sheet metal. This sort of stuff really makes me leery of purchasing cars. I so appreciate this content because I am beginning to understand what to look for. I'm also gaining confidence in this sort of work as I watch and do. Thanks for the time you take to do it.
Unless you are 100% confident in your detection skills, always get a professional to inspect cars before purchase. The small fee can save you money and injury in the future. Most of the inspections I do, gets the buyer enough money off to pay for the inspection and sometimes more. It is good to know what you are looking at, if it passes your inspection, it is ready for the next. If you don't like it, no need to spend more time and money on the next inspection. Thanks for watching!
@@vehcor that's great advice.
Thanks for the lessons in contemporary auto anatomy. I come from one generation of cars back... when you could get a good car for 1/10 the price. But, they weren't as safe. And you show how structural bondo use, bad welds, and missing air bags could actually result in criminal problems...
I hate to admit it, but energy absorption designed into the crushable steel structure is one of the great safety improvements built into (many) modern cars... and structural bondo and bad welds do not give the same results as standard steel. If the accident investigators catch on, hack shops may face criminal (and/or civil) action. Then, your style of repair -- properly -- will become the standard.
Again, thanks for your excellent work.
Like I've said before on a couple of occasions, you take a pride in your work very few can match. The attention to doing the job right and to perfection is first rate every time. When I watch your videos its like I'm in a trance, the jokes you throw here and there are funny, its the way you say them is what's so funny cause its in your serious voice. Anyway thanks for sharing can't wait to see the finished product built to perfection.....
Scott you definitely are a master at this profession, no disputing that. Great job tearing that mess apart and getting it ready to put back..
This is the best ASMR video I have seen in a long time....
I worked at an auto paint supplier in the late 90s. Made a delivery to a "body shop" that was welding 2 thunderbirds together right in front of the B pillar. Whole front of one, whole rear of another being butt welded together.
Every time I watch one of your videos, I always wonder how close you come to making any money. Some of these cars are in hard shape and need significant work. Always a good watch though!
Fixing damage from an accident and then fixing someone else's screw up go figure gives a new meaning to the word killing two birds with one stone. As always superb work.
good job super tech leave the battery connected 👏
Wow... Just.... Wow... Can't wait to see this get back together the right way!
I had the same reaction as I was working on it. 😂
It is amazing.... I look at the damage... and understand the dynamics of how serious and to the extent that the damage is, multiple parts, multiple levels. And with that, I wonder, how in the f*&k could it be repaired, correctly. You take it apart and demonstrate just what is reasonably needed, with integrity, and to put it back together. I just wish all auto shops had the integrity that you do for doing things correctly, right, and with ethics. (In other words, you don't build a death trap like the other unscrupulous operators in your industry). Keep it up... there is honor in what you do!!! Craig
This's one dude who knows what he's doing! I've just learned from a pro!!
Fantastic work. Well done.
Thanks!
This really helped me know what to do to get the interior out of my GMC Terrain Thank you.
Its amazing in these disposable days to imagine that the hours it takes to repair this car adds up to less than the cost of a replacement , especially as you have to declare its been in an accident when you sell it , or at least here in the uk you do.
You do realize it's not really boring to watch? Actually it's pretty interesting and entertaining.
Thanks!
it is too bad you can not say who did such a great job before you. enjoy your videos great job and stay safe,miss the afternoon crew.
