Buying CHEAP Dodge Hellcats & Trackhawks At SALVAGE AUCTION!

I had the itch to buy a few wrecked Dodge Hellcats & Scat Packs so I hit the local IAA Salvage Auction to see what they had for us! Luckily we found some GOOD ones! From absolutely destroyed and unfixable Challengers to Charger Hellcats that look BRAND NEW, this lot had it all! Even a stolen (but in oddly good shape) Jeep Cherokee Trackhawk!
Which Mopars from the video do you want to see us buy for parts? Stick to the usual Hellcats and Scat Packs or venture into the Trackhawk market!?

I worked for this place I seen many cool cars and everything. You can open the doors with the tape. I see people do it all the time at my lot. We just go threw and re tape them after preview hours are over with. And plus some of the cars that are unknown very well be repos we dealt with a lot of them at my lot. And plus the flood vehicles suck and the Bios do as well. Great videos

[@Lilslimdyhu]

Where is this??

[@johnj05]

Yard walks are probably my favorite video type from yall.

[@brianharris813]

Yes, that Subaru had a 25-30 tree fall on it in North East Washington that sat on it for almost a month before the city could remove the tree! Glad no one was in it at the time. I recognized it as soon as you showed it.😂

[@scraplifegarage]

WOW! I know someone has a pic!

[@hezekiahamen8335]

Nobody going to say anything about our brother walking around the salvage yard barefoot.

[@dirty2jz283]

A lot of the cars, even if the key has a dead battery, have a place you can put the key to start it up. For example Toyota/Lexus is to the push button, Dodge is to the push button, Ford is in the cupholder or in the center console there is a slot, plus many other places for many other cars.

[@drewhampton9168]

God speed n rest in peace to anyone that pass in those cars

[@Jvanpyrotechnics]

I wish you could post everyday I watch your video with a nice cup of coffee to kick start my afternoon good content love to see it

Always good to see a yard walkthrough!

[@kevinbeverlysr]

Wow just found ur channel an love it being a retired gear head enjoy ur videos pls keep en coming ur knowledge is awesome bring back such memories when I still was wrenching 😉

[@dirty2jz283]

Love the videos, haven't missed any yet.

[@scootypuffjr.]

They are monetarily totalled meaning cost to fix exceeds roughly 2/3rds the value of the car. Salvage cars used to pencil out, but not any more.

[@howardlake6178]

I absolutely love these! When you Americans crash a car, you do it properly! That silver one with no airbags……surely that means no-one was in it. At that point I cannot guess any more. The frame rails looked okay as well 😳

[@HellCharger]

Awesome 👏

[@scraplifedalt]

We should rebuild one of these some time soon! 😁

[@BabyGlock-]

Wow your by andrews airforse base as well, definitely gonna keep up with your content, love support people in the DMV

[@christophercrowley6707]

need a video showing post auction pricing. your estimate vs reality. maybe have the guys put in their estimates too.

I have so much respect for dodge! Hellcats scat packs! The jeep is sweet!

[@Dfromdalou]

Where is this lot located?

[@galvinSPORTS911]

I thought for sure the beat drop at 7 seconds was a rod knock lol

[@khairsgarage]

We get carven exhaust tips because they fill in the gaps in the diffuser better than the 3 in tips that come factory (carvens are 5 inch tips)

[@ppppw2]

5 inch , ricer asf

[@thedon958]

where can i find these auctions i’ve been looking for a donor

[@jakbmx2006]

video was shot so perfectly he didn’t have a single outtake

[@scraplifegarage]

🤣 salvage auction videos generally don’t get them, they are pretty easy to shoot, so I don’t get much outtake worthy stuff. In the case of something funny happening, like say, get attacked by a bird or me busting my ass, it just goes in the main video lol

[@michaelpackulak2833]

Already ordered mine should be in soon ❤

[@ebonnn4598]

Genuine question, is there a reason to buy Auto Theft Recovery vehicles? I’ve been told that you can’t get vins for them if they’ve been removed. I have no idea though, would love some insight.

[@tunez7544]

the cheap niche wheels and the rick & morty sticker are just *chefs kiss* on this 392 9:50

[@jamesaldrich5942]

I read a post where a Chop Shop had up to 10 hellcats including some trackhawks that were stolen in an abandoned warehouse Cops raided warehouse and seized all stolen vehicles Insurance had already paid out

[@loneric550]

Chicago is notorious for that they steal these in like less than 5 secs after you park it and go your way 😆😆😆

[@MrBlown02gt]

Challenger at 16:00 was 1000% getting hoon'd in a parking lot or similar and wacked a concrete light pole.

Definitely

I’d like to see some wrangler, Gladiator, off roader vehicles!

[@scraplifegarage]

I’ll have to find me someone who knows that market to come on a visit with me!

[@robsdeviceunknown]

With Dodge selling all the these cars in kits now I do not see a reason to buy a wrecked one unless you can get it less and 15-20K.

[@calvinburns6024]

Most if the kits need a 10-15k drive train to run anyway

[@maniacaloffroad5338]

Wonder if that silver scat pack jumped a RR crossing

[@kc0lif]

trackhawk looks good. hellcats are nice.

[@inapprehensible]

I know this is a specifically mopar video but I would've loved to see the Mustang on the right at 12:26

[@shawnbaraw2637]

Silver scat pack bags didn't blow because crash sensors are on the frame rails the k member took the impact

Hope you bought a few of these, goldmines

Spent my dad watching hellcat Chargers, trackhawks, and hellphant Chrysler 300s. Great day

[@devinswanson1752]

Just FYI Trackhawks only come with a Red Key.

[@mandingofury3407]

The track hawk that was completely wrapped in plastic had a biohazard sticker on it. I might had blood all over the interior

He took his personal add ons befor insurance took it

[@nobandzkidd9808]

KEEP THEM PLEASEEEE

[@scootypuffjr.]

None of those would be worth the time to fix or the risk of serious hidden mechanical damage. If you are capable of fixing one of these, you work in the business and would be better off earning the money fixing insurance pay jobs and saving to buy a good one for yourself.

[@Rob...]

not surprising..lol look at the sideshows thats all that wreck

Front pads and rotors rear pads and rotors and 4 tires 7k service bil lol

[@scraplifegarage]

Check IAA’s site and go to metro dc. You can see all of them

[@kobewitda345]

@@scraplifegarage just looked at that trackhawk. It’s not ready for sale and a rough estimate for damages would be $10k-$12k plus rebuilding the title

[@paul9874]

I watched several of these walk around videos but I never see you bidding. That would be interesting to see.

[@scraplifegarage]

I actually filmed a couple videos, they’re quite boring, if I get a day with a TON of cool cars maybe I’ll finally edit and post it!

[@shawnbaraw2637]

Please bring a backpack with a booster pack its a bummer when every car has a dead battery

No Vipers? :(

I would never buy one of these cars new because the valedictorians steal them so often. Such a shame.

[@mitchelldavidson9911]

i could hear you ramble about these wrecked cars all day seriously

That challenger looks like it hit a fire hydrant at speed. :(

0:55 “big target for thief’s” you mean big target for black people

[@Polemic-2525]

It’s a damn shame people can’t have anything nice.

[@christophercrowley6707]

those 2 black challengers with identical damage is weird, makes me think it was a dealer doing insurance fraud. both cars sides wiped.

[@chrisgilbert2152]

forget the Mopar... it's some of the cars around them.. hopefully everyone survived the carnage

Got another video coming out with some of those 😉

[@number847]

Where are you located and how cheap are we talking

[@chrisgilbert2152]

so, once a car hits the insurance auction, does it get a salvage title?

[@loneric550]

Depends on the insurance verdict after they access the damage.

[@chrisgilbert2152]

@@loneric550 so some cars, like the ones with no apparent damage could be bought without a scrap title?

Maybe a dumb question but if the car is stolen and the found why do they auction it off instead of reselling it?

Hellcats are cars for people that know nothing about cars but think they really need a cool car. I feel like if you're actually a car nerd, you would look at something besides a hellcat. Maybe I'm crazy
