I Bought A DESTROYED Hellcat Daytona At Salvage Auction!

[@LegitStreetCars]

I love these videos. Going through the value of the parts and the business side is so interesting.

[@TrojanLube69]

Where is the video of the red cadillac car they picked up!!!! 😂😂😂 nice to see you here.

[@GWrench9]

You have time to watch other videos now that the DeLorean is done?

[@JasonMcCord-qk3yb]

I know! I can’t get enough of it! I buy cars, repair them, then sell them. I wish I had the room/ability to part them out, but rarely do. Sometimes I have to, if the roof or floor is too buckled. I won’t buy them with the intention to part them out, but I just recently had a Jeep wrangler Rubicon 392 that I had to part out. I ended up making a little over 12k in profit, but I was sweating it out for 3 weeks, worrying about it! I had it all figured out to make around 25k in profit once it was repaired, but as soon as it arrived, and I got a good look at the frame, I knew I was screwed. No fixing that one! LOL

[@lldjslim]

No matter how much money scraplifegarage pays for these totalled POS's, it doesn't matter if they are restored and end up back on the road there value will always be WORTHLESS and will always carry the title as SALVAGE so you still lose ScrapLifeGarage

[@TrojanLube69]

@@lldjslim ok, and? You still unemployed and crying too much on a youtube comment section. Sometimes we restore cars not for the value but for the feeling it gives. Something non-car people like you wouldn’t understand.

[@thatsmyrc]

I’d be interested in hearing some of the back stories behind these crashed autos you purchase 😮

[@mryoung0412]

once in a while the driver/owner will find their car on a youtube video and reveal how they came to be totaled, I believe the burnt out demon owner was identified but hasnt commented on SLG's videos

[@jasonparker3316]

​@mryoung0412 what's the dudes name?

[@beeg_carl]

@@jasonparker3316 on some of the original demon videos, they talked about him because he left an Instagram sticker on his car, but they blurred it out which I assume was to make sure the guy doesn't get harassed. They also found illegal drugs in the trunk, so they reported him to the police and gave them the instagram handle. The car was abandoned when it got caught on fire.

I love the color combo. That blue with the white stickers and brushed aluminum wheels works so good.

[@reptilez13]

Would those be brushed aluminum or gunmetal? May look good with either honestly, tho white wheels could be cool too. Blue/green with white wheels is always a fun combo, very JDM or Rally esque, tho looks good on a muscle car too as does the gunmetal/aluminum!

[@Elmospiece]

4900miles and he says there’s no reason the engine should be beat up. I can find a 100 videos that tell me otherwise 😂

[@benjaminmatute9085]

The Daytona hellcat is very underrated. Especially knowing this car is also for track making it more interesting since most dodge cars are straight line kind of cars.

[@judgehastheword9069]

I went out an bought a 2019 Challenger 3.6 plus. Only 50,450 miles mint. Inside an out. Paid $21,000. I bought it as a flip. I owned it only 3 months an put only 600 miles. I would like to put a Hellcat motor in it . What I heard it cost was to much. If it didn't cost that much I would love to.. I would like to know what dose it cost for a used motor like that. Year back I could change it over my self. Its hard to believe I'm in a wheelchair lost both my legs above the knees at my job in 1993. In 1998 start drag racing I had my NHRA LICENSE I was running 7.62@165. I am 60 years old now. I would have to pay someone to do it. It would be awesome!!

[@spamanator666]

Standing under a car on a teeny tiny forklift (or any forklift for that matter)? Super smart...

[@bruwin]

I'll be honest, I'd probably put that engine in a resto mod 68-70ish B body. Coronet, GTX, Roadrunner, Satellite, and of course a Charger. All great options. I know that's sacrilege to some people, but hey, at least I'd be keeping it mopar.

[@brainards11]

This owner is a Picasso within the car restoration industry. Unbelievable what he knows about these cars!!! Amazing!

[@Bloodshot_camaroZ28]

Y’all need to take all the wiring out while you are in there you can get dumpster sized bin or something and then save it all up and sell it for copper scrap you don’t think it’s worth it but it all adds up over time and copper can be worth more than steel and that could pay payroll for quite sometime and maybe light bill or rent or even sell the harnesses

[@BrandonBurns1985]

the battery was stolen and missing yet that trunk light was on and lighted... how?? time stamp 7:38

[@NoTime1407]

Love the fact that you get right into it, No wasting time ✊🔥 unlike some guys .

[@outlet6989]

This is one of those rare videos where I couldn't wait to read the comments. But to be fair to myself, I watched the entire video first. Just finished with the comments and I didn't disappoint myself. That engine would have greatly enhanced my highly modified Chrysler 300C. Those brakes would have been the icing on the cake.

[@antgiIlss]

I bought those carbon parts oem for my rt on ebay a month apart each but daily scalping i got them both combined for 500 and sold for 800 when my scatpack came! They are sought after alot😊

There are people who builds custom split wheels from OEM wheels, you could probably sell wheels in a set like this with one that is beat up as long as the spokes are fine. It might not be the big money bringer but if you find someone that works with that, maby you could get some cooperation going that brings in a bit more money at least. Just a thought
