You dont make the money selling the car, you make the money buying it. Hardest thing is not to overspend and get people to sell it to you for less than its worth really.
When you “tuck” the negative lead away you should put a cap in the negative terminal. If that led slips back out and rests on the battery, it’s all for not.
4 days on that Chrysler. I call b.s. and yes, the elbow grease is only valuable if the knowledge is behind it. ‘Just weld….” Which mot people don’t know how to do. “I cleaned out the fuel lines…” uh huh… dude. You crack me up, but your hustle is genuine.
If the car has alot of miles do you sell it with the miles still there or do you do work to the engine?
nice video, but the variable frame rate on the camera looks incredibly ugly, I'd suggest figuring out how to turn it off so it's 60 frames the whole video through, also the automated machines in the comments talking about their portfolio and how to invest are a real bummer, please get rid of those, they aren't humans
Not a Toyota fan but that Prius would look great with some silver or chrome alloy wheels
Who's not going accept lower offers from Chrisfix?
What are the best strategies to protect my portfolio?, I've heard that a downturn will devastate the financial market, so I'm concerned about my $200k stock portfolio..
Good job though man. I like the video
Dont lie you used a die grinder or grinder or some sort of power too clean the exhaust mount lol
I love the way bro says flip, it sounds like he’s say fwip and it cracks me up every time
“Morgage”
Just Awsome , What a teacher .Learning is fun once again .Keep it up. I really liked this video!
Step 1 BE a mechanic.
Been a while since i watched one of his videos. Forgot about the enthusiastic intro. Shouldnt have had headphones on and up. Ouch. Lol
Bro you showing some cut phart of vido is it right? Yes.. so you spending tons of your life thime, finding online sale, buying and brig it your garage then checking, restoring, cleaning and wheithing when it wil be sold, is it profit?
How did u magically have the right interior parts to put on the car if u only have a weekend to fix it up 🤨
The red spy has already breached our defenses
We met in the middle , i came up 200, he came down 700
Vandals: We're gonna trash this car so bad it'll it's worthless
Chris: ChrisFix here. Today I'm going to show you guys how to make thousands of dollars flipping this vandalized vehicle
Flipping cars is illegal if u dont have a retail license or permits , IRS AND DMV WIL TEAM UP AGAINST YOU
Great video. Great way to make a living. I would do it if i had the skills and resources for it. Liked and subscribed.
Tire shine on plastic works so well and lasts for yrs.
Chris fix i watched you for so long you taught me so much and your a legend
Dude, I just found you and I can’t stop watching you the way you describe every step you’re doing you’re very clear you make everything seem so easy. That’s how I know you’re a professional, but I really appreciate all your tips.
and you buy cars that do not actually sell that easy
bro, you never mentioned the exact time you spend on repairs, finding parts, nor home much your toolset cost. impressive if you do not reveal these details, right?
$1000 for a car from 93’?? I paid £900 for an automatic bmw 2005 320 si, crazy
My aunt had a Prius but turns out she can’t drive a Prius drunk any better than she could drive her ford Taurus, civic or Jeep Cherokee. She mighta been gettin 50 mpg but that doesn’t really matter when you crash your car into a parked Chevy Silverado at 60 mph.
I'm trying to fix my sister's car, that noise at 19:00 is it! That makes me feel better. Thanks! My sis took her car to Valvoline for an oil change and it had been overfilled. That was in May, the oil i just drained, only a couple months later, was like black sludge and it was still WAY overfilled… took all my strength and a breaker bar to get the drain plug loose. There is zero chance Valvoline actually changed her oil and filter. ZERO. Hopefully her engine isn't messed up. I'll still check for a head gasket leak.
Tips to take good pictures for the add?
Where did you find the car ramps?
Does anyone know what kind of ramps he's using? I love em, compared to the single piece solid rhino ramps from Walmart they go higher and you can get a lower car on them
I have watched your videos for YEARS and your info is always on-spot, BUT in this one you need to be careful…. Most States, including Wisconsin where I am located, it is ILLEGAL to purchase a vehicle for the purpose of resale vs personal-use unless you have a DEALERS license. Many people get "around" this by purchasing, repairing and "using" the vehicle for a bit as a "personal" vehicle but then sell it. BEWARE: If your State notices you are selling "personal" vehicles more often than a normal person, you WILL be invesitgated. On top of that, if you ALSO post Youtube vidoes of your "flips"… that doesn't help. PLEASE check local/State laws. I'm all for making extra monay but do it "DISCREETLY" not on Youtube….
Not everyone can do this. You need skill and knowledge. But you can earn a lot of money if you have these.
This video was so educational. Do you have a instagram?
How times does he say soapy water lol nice video
