This is the first video i have watched of yours. I really enjoyed it as it took me back to when i was your age and repairing cars. Your video is a breath of fresh air in this over crowded market. It was great to see the issues you faced with manifold studs, timing change gasket, sump refusing to move when you miss two bolts holding it together. In Covid i had a Mercedes c180 that seemd to jump a timing tooth and wouldn't run. No garage was open to look at it so i had to bite the bullet and take the head off myself. It was so daunting!!! I was lucky that the piston, culinder and valve were okay and no damage caused. Pulling it apart and putting it back together was such a leap of faith for me as i could have ruined of car that wa still worth good money. So glad i did it and it ran like a dream again afterwards. Your video so reminds me of that battle. Keep up the good work and keep providing us with quality videos

At 60 years old I've got to know a lot of tradesman/ craftsmen/ technicians in my work . I've specialised in bespoke kitchen installs joinery/ carpentry but had to learn electrical installation and gas installation, [ certificated ] that's after a multi skilled apprenticeship starting at 15 years old . Starting early as the schools were repeatedly on strike back then. As well as other skills. But I can say for sure your probably in the top handful of those people. Being tenacious and determined with the skills. Imo .. and that's all it is I'd say even a small garage doing maintenance/ service / repairs ...you'd do very well especially if you could train apprentices.

I learned mechanics back in 1974 and worked in a garage. I dont like the modern car with all of the sensors and vacuum stuff on them. I prefer hte older type with carbs, coils and points or electrinic ignition. More stuff to go wrong now-a-days and less room to work on an engine under the bonnet. I was a mechanical person and knew nothing avbout electronics side of cars, except for changing bulbs and the simple stuff. lol.

Flipping cars is fine, if you know what you're doing and your liability. School boy mistakes with the loose bolts. One of my guys 30 years ago did the same and it cost me £5,000. Business partner did it 5 years ago and cost me the same again! Both were BMW's. Check cars before you buy, I had one with light damage, repaired it, but it had previous damage, badly repaired so that was a total loss as I refused to sell it. So £400 less taxes of course. Insurance, and tools time... If you get good at what you do, you should be able to hourly the profits as you have to take into account the time (wage) before you get any profit.

Yeah makes a lot of sense I was hoping to make more but with is being a surprise write off it reduced profits a lot
@guywhoknows6 күн бұрын
@@Josh.Sanderson if you focus on profits over value, then it can go a bit wrong. You should look around trade in cars. That's where I made a lot of money and the cars weren't that bad. Dirty and dents mostly, but I used to do body work so no issue there aside time. Save up and get a body lift. The. You can be doing wishbones brakes very easily. Which can be a costly repair and why a lot of cars get scrapped. Just keep an eye on getting it right, you have people lives in your hands. And do what you enjoy

@@Josh.Sanderson same for me, what other people class as "throw away" im like naa give it another chance. I put time and effort into saving a 2009 aygo which was rotten at the sills and now its like it was never corroded. Id love to do videoing for youtube and been told it pays well after so long and many many views.

good vid - naughty Carly ad though - you didn't tell everyone when they buy one there are additional fees for every car brand you want to use it on!
@Josh.Sanderson23 күн бұрын
Thanks man! To be truthful I didn’t even know that, they just sent me a membership to use that had everything, well worth it for me though as there’s so much stuff to use within the app. Much better than the eBay scanner I’ve been using 😅

Firstly I’m glad they are paying Josh.. however, to add, plus the subscription they try to take again a year later, and the fault codes that don’t come up correctly sometimes, live data discrepancies.. honestly I advise anyone to buy a second hand kingbolen or snap on unit and VCDS instead of a Carly. It’s so much better value with no ongoing fees.

Thanks brother I really appreciate the kind words! A really long time haha mainly because I was daily driving as my BMWs differential blew up and I couldn’t afford to fix it, but I would say around 2 weeks from listing it for sale to it being gone and maybe 3/4 days labour
