Fact

[@alexanderchurikov7026]

The planet needs more guys like this. Simply awesome! Bringing value - to himself, to the previous owner, to the next owner for sure, and to us by explaining everything in detail and by showing how it's done! Respect sir!

[@corail53]

What value did he bring to the previous owner or the next? He is flipping cars - he has to put in the work and $$$ on top of purchase price and hope someone else buys it later for an inflated price. If you don't know how to work on cars then you will be paying a premium for a mechanic to fix issues and with the german cars they will ream you. Depending on where you are if you sell more than 5 cars per year you will have to register as a business which is also an added cost. You also don't want to use bondo on rims - that is a cheap and dirty fix.

[@alexanderchurikov7026]

@@corail53 I suppose previous owner was happy to finally sell the car. And I'm pretty sure the next owner was happy to buy the car in good condition. If that's not value to you, most probably you haven't seen examples of how other car flippers operate.

[@umangdave111]

I agree. The person buying his car also benifits as he gets nice car to drive. I dont mind being his customer.

Buddy, as far as this line of business is concerned you are by far the best flipper I have seen on KZbin, I've noticed the passion you have for perfection when it comes to your work and I guess anyone doing business with you is safe. Thanks, your content is so incredible.

[@alliemedders5440]

Someone told me when I first started messing with cars it is so addicting it would get in my blood and there would be no turning back. They were right. I flipped my first car in 2017 and made $3000 profit. It was like winning a scratch off ticket and I enjoyed restoring it before selling it so I've been flipping and rebuilding cars ever since.

[@SamHurly]

Super fun and detailed watch, and I just learned more about these glove boxes! The only thing I'd say to do differently is replacing all old tint, regardless of delamination or physical defect - you can still see the color difference from the drivers door with fresh tint to the rear quarters with blueish tint. Tint usually has a 5-10 yr lifespan and the dyes will fade and change color, and clarity will get worse, rendering "matching" not so possible. The other cheap option would just be complete removal, but Florida and UV rays on your nice interior and skin... yeah I prefer tint, even if light. Glad I found this, rad work!

Same I want to do this to, I’m in the 10th grade though but I’ll start putting my mind to it

[@trevorgarrett7602]

Don’t forget to account for registration sales tax and titling the car. Laws vary state to state, but where I live you have 14 days to do so otherwise you get fined. When you register the car you have to pay sales tax so for this vehicle that would be an extra $1250 where I live. Plus registration fees, for this vehicle probably another $150. Then you can only do I think four per year without having a dealers license. Fun side hustle, but difficult to make a living at.

[@kevinfasciano6314]

In a lot of these older BMWs, especially the E36 vintage, as seen here, parts of the interior pieces and upholstery were actually held together by glue, which, naturally, deteriorates. In a state like FL where the climate accelerates the contraction and expansion factor, I'm sure it is even more so prevalent on these older examples.

Nice make-over! Most of those issues are pretty common on E36, just make sure to keep an eye on the cooling system, since there are a few common weak points (plastic radiator ends, plastic t-stat housing, plastic water pump impeller, brittle expansion tank). Fortunately, E36 is designed with service in mind and are very easy to work on and maintain.

[@ronald1111]

Where's car auctions?

[@TheChill001]

the E36 and in lesser form the E46 are probably the easiest to fix due to the lack of overly complicated electronics. Well...as long as you choose the cheap, unwanted US spec version.

[@IzziedeD]

@@TheChill001 Electronics are one thing. I actually find OBD2 stuff easier to work on because scan tools allow you to glimpse into what the computers are seeing and diagnose issues that way. That said, the OBD1 can have a lot more issues going on and still operate as a functioning automobile. I was more or less referring to the physical layout of things however. Most of the suspension became way more complicated in the F series and up, and the engine bays are just layers upon layers of plastic pieces that have to be removed with surgical precision in exactly the right order or its gonna cost you a few hundred for new plastic bits. E series chassis, was not only designed for factory assembly, but my impression is it was also designed for modular and piece by piece servicing. Every nut and bolt is placed in a way where it can be accessed with basic hand tools, and nearly any part can be removed without disassembly of 1/3 of the vehicle.

[@ptcannon]

Great work and content, enjoy all your work. I owned a 97 M3 myself, not surprised you wanted to keep it. Had the issue with the glove box. Word of advice, swap out the zip tie you used and make the fastener part connect on the back side (inside the dash) so it’s not exposed in the glove box. You will eventually cut/scratch your hand on the exposed part where you cut it, reaching into the glove box. Use a black one and you’ll never even notice it’s there! Enjoy the M3!

[@GerardoHernandezF87M2]

Yup, these cars are full of dumb, yet easy to fix problems. I’ll eventually sell one of mine, but not anytime soon.
