To be fair I work in a well paid job in banking but drive an '01 Camry which I purchased last year for the equivalent of about $1200 USD. Let me tell you a secret from banking: Often the people who can least afford it who want the latest and greatest cars. Vehicle manufacturers use credit to allow insecure people to buy/lease cars they can't afford to impress other people in some vain attempt to attain social status. It's a completely pointless arms race. Also never having to worry about exchanging paintwork has it's advantages out on the highway when people try to bully their way into your lane or merge without looking/indicating. At $1200 all in I will show absolutely NO contrition.

I got a 1995 Hyundai Elantra from my junkyard for $400. It only needed a radiator, which was new in the box in the backseat when I got it. The owner, who was the mother of one of the employees at the salvage yard, was going to replace the radiator when the car got hit in the rear when it was parked on the street, so his mother decided to just get a new one. I installed the radiator in the yard, put in a new battery and drove it home. I did the bodywork myself, and bought a new taillight from the Hyundai dealer, and drove it for four years until the timing belt let go and ruined the engine (was a interference engine)

Three years now and I'm just watching this. I actually got lucky with buying my Toyota pickup. I did have to drive (get a ride) four hours round trip to even look at it. Looked it over, test drove it, then bought it for only $1300. Yes it was an 84' single cab pickup, high mileage, 4cyl engine (coming from an American vehicle owner), bed all rusted out, been painted with roll on house paint, but hey it is a pickup which is what I wanted and it was a 4x4 and 5speed. I purchased that truck in 2015, and now in 2022 of a lot of work and shallow pockets plus an extra 350k miles does not look like the same truck I purchased back when. Of course the engine died but at 455k mile, couldn't afford to pull money out of my account just on a whim, had to get a small loan and did a complete 3.4l conversion plus a complete dash and HVAC conversion from a Tacoma amongst all other upgrades I've don to the truck over the course of 7 years. Started with a 84' pickup, and pickup is the only thing that remains. So now I own a 84-2004 Toyota V6 5speed SR5 TRD pickup, the only thing it's missing is power windows and door locks, but who needs those that's why god gave you hands in the first place. Toyota's old commercial saying "I love what you do for me", hands down the longest lasting truck (kind of, size wise), but I have done scrap runs consisting of just over 2k lbs. twice in one day back when the 4cyl was still the power plant. What you said in this video has been me my entire life hence the reason I love turning wrenches and also love working on vehicles, mainly mine now. I stopped doing the mechanic thing when I joined the Army.

Just had a similar experience, a minivan was delivered DOA from an estate after a shop said they did not want to fix it. yeah, it was a lot of work and had several problems from half-assed repairs and neglect. Squirrels ate the wiring above the fuel tank and ABS sensors, a real PITA to chase down all the electrical gremlins. The entire braking system had problems: ABS controller was stuck not releasing fluid, front calipers seized, frozen brake cable and lots of rust. Stabilizer links were history, replaced the sway bushings and outer tie rod ends. This is the majority of stuff that got fixed and the tires also had rotten casings.. Most of this stuff came from Rock Auto and Amazon (clearance items) because there are no junkyards where I live. Also used a Green Machine to clean the carpet and seats, it was just nasty inside. Polished the paint, applied a sealant and wiped it down with spray wax. Also reconditioned the foggy headlights to very good condition. people say this is a nice vehicle after being COMMITTED to resurrecting it from the dead. It cost me some cash, at least I know the repairs are solid and not full of other people's problems like you get from a used car lot.

Faye. I have owned Toyota trucks and cars over the years. Then moved to Hyndia. GM terrains and trucks. The Hyandia started getting a steady diet of oil every 500 to 600 miles. The Terrain did likewise. Was told by both Stealerships that's normal. Sold the Terrain to GM for 2014 4 runner. My daughter loves the truck. She keeps up on the oil changes and maintains it. She bought new tires and wheels. Added a brush guard to boot. The only issue was a big truck threw a big rock thru her Radiator and had to rescue her. The Terrain became a nightmare. Timing chains wore out at 80k. VVT issues. Then a steady diet of oil. Then fuel pump was giving problems. I cleaned up the car. Cleared all codes. And Sold it back to GM. Bought a brand new Sienna. Go figure. I'm back to Todas. But..i still have my 03 Silverado 4x4. Same trans but rebuilt motor. She suffered the bad lifters. After disassemby. Discovered cam bearing were shot. Lifters shot and the rocker arms were worn out too. She is now at 365k on same trans. I should add. I'm a 30 year experience auto mechanic under a Tree. I've only taken my car only to the dealership 1 time. After seeing the cost. No more

I have a 2000 limited 4runner, it needs a power steering pump. I watched your belt removal video on your 4runner, now I know I need a 14mm ratchet wrench. Awesome 👌

With the Upholstery, I’ve actually had a lot of luck with several vehicles. I found a guy in my area that did it right out of his house. I’ve had it done for buses, and for some pickups as well. When he takes the seats and door panels. I would clean up the carpeting then re-install the seats when he brings them back to me.

Good for you!!! I've had a boneyard car too, a Vega. And when the motors got tired I just went back to the yard for another motor. You gotta play the hand you're dealt. Good job!!!

I know I’m a few years late to the party, but a 4Runner for $1200 is a steal now, especially with your knowledge and skill. Toyotas can run forever if maintained well and I still kick myself like I knew I would for selling my ‘94 toyota truck (the year before Tacoma) . I wish I could find something like Grim for that price. I’m currently looking for a used white work van, and in spite of the American made vans being sorta wonky on reliability, and most having well over 100,000 miles , they are still expensive AF. Love your videos, and you are awesome! Keep ‘em coming.

Good deal. I didn't know that you could buy used cars from a junkyard. Hell why not if you can fix it and you know what you are doing. I really hope it works out for you.
