Rebuilding a Salvage Wrecked 2005 HONDA S2000 in 10 Minutes!

[@mickeyhartsell6096]

The Honda S2000 is the most beautiful car Honda ever produced.

[@SuperishMario]

100% agreed ✊🏼

[@Nic010784]

the 2nd most beautiful...after NSX...

[@MordAutomobile]

Another S2K saved, great job!

[@SuperishMario]

Thanks another one in the works!!

[@VikingsGarage]

It’s looking good, thank you for saving it.

[@SuperishMario]

Thanks! Will keep it going ✊🏼

[@HaterS2k]

I like that you actually save them instead of parting out. There are way too many "part outs" in the S2000 community IMHO.

[@SuperishMario]

Agreed!

[@h2junkey]

[@thebudgettrackjunkie]

Very nice work

[@SuperishMario]

Thank you!

[@Shoeg4zer]

Where and how do you find wrecked cars that are a good candidate for restoration?

[@SuperishMario]

Copart.com and IAAI.com

[@bartholomewfreaky]

Question for the rebuild of the front did you buy all the parts at once or did you have to get them separate? By the way dope video love how the car came out

[@SuperishMario]

I bought two OEM front fenders and then I ended up finding a good used pair for half the price so I sold the OEM set. I usually accumulate the parts separate until I have the main components and then I buy all the little stuff together to finish assembly

[@itachisolosmadara]

How much should i expect to pay for ap2 around this mileage at IAAI?

[@SuperishMario]

Won that car for roughly 6k so I would expect you to buy one with similar damage and miles for closer to 7k with fees since values have shot up recently.

[@bdriedgebdriedge4005]

How much did the whole restoration cost? And how much did you get the car for? I’m looking to restore one myself.

[@SuperishMario]

Don’t recall the entire cost associated with rebuilding it but I did most the mechanical work myself. I believe I purchased this car damaged close to the 7-8k range.

[@Shawnraines]

Nothing needed to be done to the engine? This is crazy.

[@SuperishMario]

Not a thing! Oil change and a nice cleaning.

[@imranbangali11]

Do u have a dealers license to purchase? And if I don't, can you recommend a way to buy?

[@SuperishMario]

I go through a dealer that I’m close with. Usually brokers will charge about 200-250 if you purchase through them. You should have many to choose from in your area.

[@joshuavazquez7460]

The ending had me sad… had to say goodbye . Farewell…

[@SuperishMario]

Yup :/ miss it!!

[@thisguy8100]

Awesome job my s2k is getting rough but nothing like what you started with. Gives hope!

[@SuperishMario]

Thanks!! You got this! 😎

[@thisguy8100]

I sold a paint matched car wing in a 03 s2k....for 800 for a ninja 250.....I'm a funny lol. Have electrical tape on the rear tailgate 4 years later lol

[@SuperishMario]

@@thisguy8100 lol dang!

[@gilbertvidaurri2687]

Was sourcing parts difficult for you? Im trying to restore front end damage and dont know where to start

[@SuperishMario]

@@gilbertvidaurri2687 it’s not terribly hard to find parts, all depends if you need to pass a salvage police inspection after. If you don’t then FB marketplace has many people parting them out. For new parts I recommend Honda wholesale using a shop/dealer account

[@vaajchang]

Wait did you let go of the S2?Why?

[@SuperishMario]

A local older gentleman checked it out and made an offer I couldn’t say no to. Will held fund future projects 👍🏼
