TAKING DELIVERY of the CHEAPEST MCLAREN EVER SOLD (Here's the Damage...)

[@regvarney2173]

Great video and stay with it. Matt Armstrong started on his own driveway, in cold British weather, with no ramps and doing another full time job. Stay with it #HWBT

[@H4HDJD]

I really appreciate how genuinely thankful you come off about having the opportunity to own something like this, so many other KZbinrs sound like they feel like they have to say it to not come off like a snob but pretty sure off camera they likely are. I hope you can get this up and running without many more issues. Also I would ask around and find someone with a scanner that can read that car, I bet it could open the lid if you got one

[@TheInja]

Appreciate that. Actually just bought a nice scanner that has McLaren in it, so next video we'll read some faults!

[@jg6579]

I just subscribed only for the fact that you seem so humble and not like a lot of the car content on KZbin. I'm excited for you so "Let's Go!"

[@Johnny2Bags47]

no shit same here.and turns out it's a good channel. glad dude wasn't a prick

[@highlysuggestible861]

Yeah same, I just ignored the Goonsquad t shirt and got on with it.

[@michaelbasweti6480]

Same here man. I aspire to be like this dude when I eventually get a maclaren project car😄.

[@dwk5234]

If I were you, I’d be finding a service manual for the car, so you can start figuring out the wiring issues, maybe see how the engine cover latch could be accessed, and more. A manual is probably not going to be easy (or cheap) to find because McLarens are pretty rare cars, but I think it’d be a good investment in the long run. I know that you want to hear the car run and see if it’ll drive, but take it a small step at a time and you’ll get there. Cool car, you deserve to have it be a part of your fleet!

[@davidscaife4312]

Check every single wire for breakages

[@TheInja]

Make sure to smash that like button if you can!! Trying to get the builds back in the algorithm!! 👊🏽

[@EDV8ZR1]

Well I hope this works out well. This Gamble trying to repair this car. 🏆

[@johnnykjaersgaard7978]

Smashed👊

[@KurtGuy]

Done. Good luck man :)

[@IDK_Mr.M]

If you need help

[@onelife2live4]

Over next 2 days I'll watch all your stuff and like them for you I'm new to channel so probably good thing the algorithm done it cause I never seen ya before.

[@MS-ps3cf]

The color on this 650s is just stunning especially when the sun hits it, I hope the engine is all good so you can continue focusing on the front end. Looking forward to the next part!

[@theglitch99]

I felt the same joy when I bought my 1st diesel. Wrecked 04 dodge ram 2500 w/ 24 v Cummins! I get it.... now she is fixed and running, worth it!

[@Harvy500]

New subscriber here! I'm excited to follow this build. Little bit of my history. I was born in Woking Surrey England. Less than 1/2 a mile away from my childhood home was the original McLaren workshop. Walked past many times to see and hear the F1 cars. Back then, there was a mushroom farm about 2 miles away. It was called Mizzens farm. It closed down. McLaren bought that farm, flattened it and built the factory it is now. Hence, every time I hear someone say I've got a McLaren, I think, oh a car build on a mushroom farm. Lol.

[@TheInja]

Very interesting!

[@UKBUILT]

Wow, very interesting 👍

[@vmwindustries]

Ernesto is a champion, and very skilled. Hope you bought him a coffee, or a sandwich for going above and beyond like that. Cheers from Canada.

[@TheInja]

Tipped that man, who refused, but I insisted. Haha. Good guy.

[@caseyjones94]

Just come across your channel, looks great. So going to check out more of your videos. As you know, we all start somewhere... Remember Mat Armstrong starting out, repairing so many cars, including a Bentley on his driveway...looking forward to your build... 👏👏👏

[@RoryDahn-s3x]

Hey inja, great content ! I know Mat Armstrong had to input the vehicle as a Mercedes 600 or something on his autel in order to get it to read and from there he was able to access it. Hope this helps

[@TheInja]

Interesting! I'll give that a shot.

[@C6Silver]

One of your best videos. Totally riveting from start to sudden ending. Keep at it brother! Oh and given what you spend on these things, get yourself a garage lift.

[@pp606mm]

This is the first time I have ever watch this guy's channel and I really like that he seems genuinely appreciative of what he has. Wishing him the best!

[@akshaykrishna5832]

love from India! We cant wait for you to get this beauty up and running, Part of this journey with you. All the best! Much love

[@TheInja]

Glad to have you, thanks brother!

[@rcmakingtracks18]

Looking forward to seeing it up and running and fixed. Good luck. Liked and subscribed. John

[@TheInja]

Thanks John!

[@69Dartman]

Man I hope this car works out for you. At least you have the money to be able to play at this level now. You have clawed your way up to this level and if it keeps going you might have to look at a bigger shop or whatever it takes to keep up with the projects you're coming up with. Going to be a awesome car if everything works out and you'll get a ton of good content out of it.

[@TheInja]

Absolutely. 🙌🏽 Thanks Dartman! Looking forward to getting into this thing!! 🔧

[@donscott6431]

To open the engine cowl: jump, up & down TWICE, turn around ONCE, wiggle all-over then bump the right-rear quarter panel with your left hip😅😅

[@Marty_Crypto_Life]

I subscribed at the 6 min mark when your humble personality came through, good on ya bro.

[@lulamorton5953]

Heck yeah! This is going to be awesome to see as your next build.

[@TheInja]

Can't wait to tear more into it!! 🙌🏽

[@mrtdiver]

I checked if I was subscribed. Yes sir, this is going to be an interesting build.

[@inuvik491]

Massive respect doing this in your driveway, will be following with great interest. Good luck .

[@Harry-lmao]

Alright, don't let us hangin in here for too long to see the 2nd part. It's so exciting, srsly. Perhaps you'll get it to run somehow

[@TheInja]

New video in the works right now!

[@Gtttts]

I wouldn’t clean it lol just discovered ya Chanel will be following this project

[@TheInja]

Haha! Glad to have your eyeballs with us on the build! 👀 Welcome

[@rw9495]

I'm so stoked for you bro!! That's the dream to find a nice car you love that cheap!

[@bjw4859]

You have to admit even in it's wounded state that is a beautiful looking car, best of luck bringing it back to life.

[@sajedb]

No worries at all, all those youtubers you mentioned started from the driveway. Can’t wait for the next episode. Best of luck

[@RickRaven]

What a great video. Looking forward to seeing more. Cheers mate.

[@UnWrecked]

Ive been doing copart rebuilds for a long time and I've got pretty good at spotting these flip rebuilds (doctored up to look better than it is). I saw this one coming as soon as you started describing it. I did currently buy a copart car that was listed as a "runs and drives" that actually wasn't, but it wasn't nearly as bad as this. Good luck😅

[@TheInja]

Yeah I've gotten a "run and drive" Copart car with a seized engine

[@UnWrecked]

​@TheInja mine had a smashed intake manifold, broke egr tube, the fuseblock on the battery was broke in half and the battery was smashed.......runs and drives 😂

[@AviSpira]

Its amazing watching your journey and how you,your projects and this channel has been growing

[@TheInja]

It has been an absolute privilege for me. Hope you're enjoying the videos 💯

[@whobroughtdude2231]

Gotta support these Cali builds! Good luck and I’m onboard. Rebuilding a 996 and I just eat videos like this up.

Starting from some cheap electric motorcycle I have to say it's fantastic trip done 😊

[@wolfydan121]

working on cars like most of us good to see mate

[@KG-sw7to]

Love your, "just go for it mentality". You should follow and check out some of the videos from Matt Armstrong related to his rebuilds. I watched the section of your video which covered your purchased of the entire "pyro" mechanism. Apparently you spent a ton for this and it wasn't completely usable in your build. You then commented, you could have purchased the single Mercedes fuse for around $20. Matt Armstrong covered this about a year ago in one of his videos. I'm sure you looking to save where you can.

[@TheInja]

already watched all Mat's, Tavarish, DDEs, and vTuned McLaren projects! Learned a lot along the way, and lots of applicable knowledge from theirs, but none of theirs are 650S, so a lot of it here is trial-and-error. :)

[@OmarGarciaElDeLa_O]

Bro, your Positive Vibe is so contagious. Thanks 🙏, and the best wishes for your project. 🇵🇷 🇵🇷 🇵🇷….

[@1MIC2GO]

Nice project. Looking forward to watching more of this!

Can't wait to show you what has developed since this video so far!!

Beautiful car very beautiful color and the rims look really good on it hopefully all is good with it

Absolute best wishes Brother!

[@ashpunting]

This is not a cheap Mcclaren to me it's a dream car to me and I hope this leads to your hydraulic lift for the cars in the future can't wait to see this engine running 👏🏽

[@TheInja]

Absolutely! Can't wait to get this thing fixed up!!

[@jannerkev]

Fantastic achievement Dan.

[@07bently]

Awesome car I hope you have the money or skill to fix it up and don't let the zero to 60 get to your head that's what got it in that condition to begin with (meaning just do it right)

Congrats with this project, can't wait to see you grow into more exotic cars. Don't forget all the other successful dudes started humble with cheap European cars

A bit of steam should restore the foam in the seats back to original shape and the leather too. The car will look amazing finished that colour is unreal will be so nice in the sunshine

[@gregorymorrison512]

I just subscribed because you mentioned Mat Armstrong xD and a Mclaren always makes me smile!

[@williamvonaschen7309]

You are now seeing why I have told everyone I know that I want a 67 Mercury Cougar at the same price that you paid for this car ! And the one I am looking at only has 300 actual miles on it. The major plus to the Cougar is that it doesn't have all of the electronic issues !

[@thetroothhurtz]

This is gonna be awesome to watch

[@TheRealAlpha2]

Hey, even Tavarish starting fixing supercars in his driveway... although I think he eventually got a lift put in, but still. The paint color is gorgeouse I hope who ever paints it can match that. My big fear seeing this is that the engine has unseen damage from the crash. Some of the repairs of I've seen on V-tuned tell me it could look perfectly fine but things like frame rails could be off by tiny amounts that screw up the balance of the car. Just things to think about, not that you don't already have plenty.

[@TheInja]

Yeah, I've been watching all the McLarens on KZbin! Got a lot of good insight from Tavarish, Mat, DDE, and the vTuned series 🙌🏽

[@TheRealAlpha2]

[@cafe405]

That red looks sooooo good.

[@TheInja]

Agreed!!

[@OnnoBolderman]

Cracked windshield can indicate that the car is twisted and got some serious structural damage. Will be interesting to see what you'll have to do to get this on the road again. I wish you luck!

[@Securityx1]

that truck driver was a class act.

[@TheInja]

Good guy.

[@judgetk8327]

It's easy to start.

[@michaelferguson5124]

Sometimes in electronics, the hand switches and buttons are switching ground instead of power. You probably need to to beg, borrow, or steal a service manual for this car. Having a wiring diagram would make chasing gremlins allot easier. Good luck.

[@TheInja]

For sure.

[@RealRickCox]

Worse comes to worst - call Tavarish. He knows everything about these cars. :D

[@TheInja]

Facts!

[@airflez]

you probably have a bad pyro fuse. not sure where it is in a McLaren but either in or part of a fuse box or directly on the battery. good luck! this is going to be awesome!
