To be honest, I am with him on this one. If it has been built once, it can be rebuild, sure it will take a heck of a lot of money, so budgeting and alternative options/fixes will be the key here.

[@ckm-mkc]

​@@eddieduran4670 Right now it's worth exactly what Tavarish paid for it - $525k. In 10 years it will be worth north of $10m, probably more than $20m for a perfect example. I've restored cars for 30 years, including some worse than this that were less valuable. It's a challenge for sure, but he will come out ahead. There nothing that can't be restored, esp. with modern manufacturing and enough time and/or money. In the supercar collectible world, this is extremely doable as the parts are still available from the manufacturer, it's not like you have to make an entire gearbox from scratch, manufacture a new windshield or even an entire body from a single photo (BTDT)..... Either way, it's a win as his main business is doing YT videos and the more comments & views he gets, the more $$$ sponsors pay. And, once more, in the very high-end collectible world, salvage titles just don't matter. A ton of Ferrari 250 GTOs have been crashed to the point of being scrap, they are still worth 90% of a minter well restored. Ditto with Ford GTs, a few are even assembled from multiple cars. The is nothing like the "normal" car market or even racing cars, totally different.

I think a lot of people genuinely don't understand that. Sure, something like this doesn't make any kind of financial sense on its own, but that doesn't mean it *can't* be fixed, just that it's going to require resources beside simply throwing money at it. Resources such as doing most of the work yourself, finding ways to repair components which normally would be replaced, cross-referencing part numbers with other models in order to find replacements for parts that are beyond repair, partnering with friends or colleagues to work on parts of the project you can't do yourself, getting sponsorships, and (probably most importantly in this case) having a way to monetize the process as you go.

It seems like the proper thing to do with a car this nice is to tear it COMPLETELY apart and thoroughly clean every single piece of the car. In other words, a TOTAL restoration NOT just a "let's get it running and looking like nothing ever happened." Maybe with a complete rebuild from the frame up, Freddy could apply for a title since the car will have been entirely rebuilt rather than just cleaned up.

[@ovilondon3589]

🔥

[@feedingravens]

ESPECIALLY if he wants to reuse as much of the "substance" as possible, a total disassembly is unavoidable. Alone, he has a massive gash in the carbon frame. Carbon is extremely stiff, but this also makes it extremely vulnerable against small defects, then the scratch creates such a peak stress that the part breaks at a fraction of the regular load. Not bend or getting soft, but break clean through. So he should/has tp give the frame to an EXPERIENCED specialist in carbon fiber who knows how you make a repair that restores the rigidity. Alone the windows and the battery here add up to 180,000 dollars, when he is lucky, he gets away with 500,000 dollar in parts. I would contact McLaren whether something goes, after all that is great advertisement for them.

I really think the battery should be fine. Those things should be waterproof, and the contactors will have opened once the isolation detection device tripped. Some low voltage stuff, connectors and fuses might be bad, but I can't imagine the main HV elements being damaged by the car being submersed. That would be a massive safety risk and will have been covered in the FMEA for the subsystem. (have worked on the design of some elements of an automotive HV battery, but not the P1 obviously)

I’m over here questioning my project car purchase that needs a clutch and timing belt…meanwhile😂 I’m so invested in this project since I can’t even imagine being in this situation

Does this have a destruction title? What’re you gonna do to make it street legal if so?

[@carbonfibercreationswashin7213]

I'm actually looking forward to your rebuild Tavarish

[@Cyclone001c]

Not quite as bad a shape as DIYGang's Dodge Charger Hellcat was initially, but a whole hell of a lot more costly. Best of luck, Freddie. Almost be fun, when rebuilt, to make a full amphibious car conversion in honor of its past.

Love seeing all the other great KZbinrs

Take all the paint off and make it all gloss carbon shell. I know you can bring this car back to life. The car isn’t really in that bad off condition. The car is intact for the most part. The car is flooded not burned down or wrecked beyond belief. I believe this car will be up and running plus restored back to its full glory! Best of luck and I love the channel my guy.

I love how the 2nd set of guys are like cheering Freddie, unlike shmee and the other ones

To Tavarish. Please add an air intake F1 type of seventies and then paint the water line on it. To me you are my hero.
