Salvaging A DESTROYED Shelby GT350!

  • I just gambled on a $13,000 Shelby GT350 from the Salvage Auction (SPOILER ALERT: It's REALLY totaled..)
    With 0 straight body panels and 1 5.2l VooDoo engine that is allegedly an oil down waiting to happen, you might be wondering why I found it prudent to spend $13k on it..
    Well as it turns out, there's quite a bit of money to be made on Mustangs like this! As long as the engine is good, that is... So come get a peek into the world of salvaging high end sports cars (and also mustangs) to see if we can manage to stay afloat financially!

    I have a lot of experience with GT350s and 350Rs on track. I'll bet you'd have a ton of fun with the red car as a track car. Ford put out a fix for the oil filter harmonic issue IIRC. As for oil consumption, both cars I have experience with were warmed up gently, but driven hard once warmed up. Currently, the 350R has 10,000 miles, 3-4000 of which are on the track. The 350 didn't burn oil and neither does the current 350R. Oil changed before every track day with the OEM ford 5W50. That's my personal experience with the 5.2.

    • @ameltjr9802
      @ameltjr9802 5 місяців тому

      Oil consumption is part of the design. You may have later model with higher tension rings. Plus, people that continue to recirculate oil back into the crank case are asking for issues. The oil must be captured by a separator and not recycled into the case. A separator and clean rings make all the difference.

    I did not get the performance pack, did not have extra money, like 7K I think, I am curious though if the panel with the two gauges and air vents will work on the GT/CS as is or if the wiring and other things might be missing on the car and not be able to get the gauges to work.

    Yes, restore the GT350R. It's worth it now, it's worth it in the future. Bonded title or not, the car has value it in as either a track toy or somebody's budget Shelby. Heck, go ahead and roll cage it, strip the interior and get it full race prep. Probably worth more that way, but slower to sell.

The maintenance and repair on teslas for parts or sensors are wicked high so I have to imagine the resale value of used parts have to be pretty darn good right!? Only thing I could imagine is that tesla does a parent coding system where if it’s not the exact same one that came with the car the parts cant be swapped out but I seriously can’t imagine that’s true either with how often parts go bad right?
