Hunting CHEAP Salvage Auction Supercars | STOLEN & WRECKED!

While in Houston for TX2K, I couldn't resist visiting a few IAA Salvage Auctions to hunt down Wrecked, Stolen and Flooded Supercars! From Swiss Cheesed Lamborghinis to 'clean' $350k Aston Martins to Ferraris and even Hellcats and Corvettes!
I found some hidden gems that we will DEFINITELY be bidding on along with some cars that are, well, not exactly gems...

I think the a pillar thing and console panel lift is to do with the key fob antenna for the keyless start as that is where they are often located. In the UK many theft happen outside the owners home with keyless start using a lap top and antenna booster. It picks up the key inside the house and boosts it to the car and off they go in 30 seconds. We keep our keys in special pouches but tin foil is the same or put your keys in the microwave at night

[@scraplifegarage]

Good to know thanks for posting!

[@LargeFather95]

You put your keys in the microwave every night?

[@vengeance1]

Or just install a kill switch. Won't stop them from breaking into the car and probably do damage trying to start it, but they won't take the car and ram it into someone else at 180 mph and ditch it as your problem.

[@jeffmac3071]

Love the honesty and your expert comments as to good and bad buys. Keep the vids coming. 👍

[@maxk1763]

The green Aston is crazy. I actually saw it driving around Austin a few months ago and it’s unbelievable that it was stolen.

[@simondarrie666]

Even more strange is the fact it was stolen from florida, must have just drove to Austin after they stole it for giggles 😃

[@ruthd2796]

Honestly if you don’t live in a good area and have no garage that Aston could’ve been stolen the first night they had it

[@AndrewPureMI]

Or they couldn't afford it and then it miracously was stolen!!

[@OlderthanIlookyoungerthanIfeel]

I've never even driven an Aston Martin , but there has to be a good reason why one of them that originally sold for $300,000 sells for about 50 to $60,000 5 years later . Unlike most cars that cost too much these ones tend to lose their value really quick . That's why Tavarish has a number of them .

[@scraplifegarage]

I totally agree and in general I think that applies to most “exotics” that skew luxury rather than performance, with maybe the exception of the high end rolls market. Wouldn’t own one, but they sure are nice when they’re new!

[@topdawg1692]

On the gray Scat Pack in the parking lot with the hood tied down: they used an earlier model Hellcat hood on some of the newer Scat Pack models. I have a 2023 Challenger T/A 392 manual and it has the Mopar Performance cold air hood on it from the factory. It looks like the Hellcat hood that you have there minus the vents.

[@joshuasterling2144]

Looks like you need to trailer a golf cart to these lots. We have one for our land and it saves hours of back and forth for the month.

[@howardlake6178]

Dang! The thieves of that one that would make a good base car, I’m English so was it a ZR1? They even left the wheels on, so it rolls! I am addicted to these salvage yard walk arounds. They say everything is bigger in Texas. That includes car accidents 😳

[@barondugger]

So interesting to see so many of the same car, stolen the same way... Valedictorians like Hellcats. I'd be terrified to drive one in 'certain' cities. Being carjacked once is enough for me.

[@040mobil]

Hey bud pretty hooked on your videos I have to say, that at times I have skip parts or pause it. Your constant spinning around while you are narrating and panning back and forth between yourself and the subject almost gives me vertigo. Not a hater man, you have awesome content and your insights on breaking down a parts car and selling are awesome. I havent seen that on another channel!

[@scraplifegarage]

I appreciate feedback good and bad! Some of the channels I watch often are like that, so that’s probably where the style comes from. Not to mention I tend to pace around while talking on camera.

[@jasonlovesanythingcars3579]

My respects to Aston martins exotic cars enthusiast .

[@andrewbeetz2196]

Definitely a cool video, it is always neat to see what kind of awesome stuff is lying in the junk yard. One issue though, I'm concerned you guys are not being honest. What I mean is, Hellcat sure no problem, c6Z blown and spraying, yeah I believe it the R8 is fast, but the Lexus?!?, not today. That's some deep fake shit, I'm going to break it down frame buy frame like a 300mph top speed run, compare roadsigns with Google maps.

The pillar trim thing is looking for trackers

[@darrylmelnyk8182]

that box looks like an ignition killer. you need a special fob to get the engine to start.

[@Lightsout89]

Im pretty sure they disable the tracker in the A pillars but im not 100% on that as it's just what I've heard on the grape vine

[@CodyDoesIt]

Love the gum bumbottoms

[@deimosphob]

The ls400 toyotas are great all around. They do fix up pretty cheap, main things that rust up are the suspension components and the antenna bracket. Everything else is fairly typical of most cars, like the bottoms/edges of the doors, wheel wells, and underbody. Great cars, definitely a daily. Flipping specifically ls's i'd keep in mind Black interior goes for a-lot more, as in you may get 2k extra ontop of what you'd typically get just because of a black interior, even on a car that didn't originally come with it.

[@Level_Up_Nation]

How they steal them is by amplifying the key fob signal, so I am guessing the key fob signal wires are in the A Pilers and all they need yo do is steal your key fob signal and amplify it next to the car. We deal with a lot of theft recovery and they all have popped A Pillar.
