      to be fair - a dashub car will also have ~500 dollars in fees and another 3-4 hundred in towing fees. Not trying to diminish the value at all in this video, but to find a car for 1400 may be tough. my example was a front end crash 2010 infiniti for 3500 all in.

      I had an opposite experience with this car. Had it for 6 years and it was 2001. It's junk and is a rust bucket. Bottom of the car rusted like crazy until pieces began to fall apart along the side fenders. Got rid of it in 2012 when a truck hit the drivers side and damaged the whole side. I collected insurance money and sold as is. That was the best way to get rid of that junk.

      just go on ebay and search up the parts u need for ur specific car model and add up the cheapest price u can find for it for all the parts and thats the maximum u want to spend on ur parts car.

      Can sell on sites like ebay and craigslist. You can also sell to a junkyard/parts trader. Always check to see if the car has an online forum following. Join the forum and sell the parts there too.
      You kind of just have to spam these options several times and you'll definitely get buyers for most of the stuff. Stuff always breakes and people always want a cheaper solution!

    Common Questions:
    *Why didnt I keep the rims?*
    I did keep the Jaguar rims but I needed the car to be a rolling chassis for the tow company so I put on the old aftermarket rims that were not in good shape and had almost no value.
    *Why not change the passenger door with the ding in it?*
    The ding is very minor and barely noticeable, especially after I touched it up, and the door has a pinstripe on it while the other door doesnt so it is not worth messing with.

It’s not about that, the channel is about DIY and the Maserati video SHOWED us that you could have a luxury car of your own for a fraction of a fraction of the cost. It’s about doing things yourself and giving back both to yourself and other hence all the charity stuff he has done over the years.

I've researched cars in-depth for a year now and one thing that really stood out is the need to "get ahead" of the game -- that is, to make buying your next vehicle financially easier than the last time. Buying used and avoiding the initial depreciation cost is one of many ways to get ahead.

    Always research the car and find out the biggest issues with that particular model and sell those parts, or it it's a future collectible, store them for as long as you have the storage space! Also, scan the interior and look for things that might easily break and store, or sell those as well.
    If you're selling them, check and see if they are compatible with other model years and be sure to include that info in your listing, to increase your market.
