Today I found a WILD Ram TRX crashed by rap legend Lil Durk at Copart salvage auction, unbeknownst to me, it's also been heavily armored! This is EASILY one of the weirdest cars I've ever found at the salvage auction...
We also check out a Durango Hellcat, a Trackhawk, a Hellcat Redeye and a few exotics while we're here!

What you found was a narco TRX built for the Mexican cartels. Jeep and Dodge vehicles can be optioned with bulletproof glass and armor.😮
IVE GOT TRX PARTS IF YOU NEED ANY!!!
wtf is a lil durk??
@@mmtboss she's still sitting where I left her waiting for a run date at auction!
@@mmtbossI got a couple other cool cars coming while we're waiting for this one ;)
It's a pain, sometimes you see a car and it runs at auction the next day, other times they're tied up with legal/title work and they sit for years.
Copart is spraying tire shine on these high end cars to up the value at auction 😮😂
100% 😂
Even on bad tires
I work for them 😭
The track hawk was rev- vined
the fucking bots on this comment reply thread lol
For the durango, i have noticed copart is now labeling theft recovered hellcats as vandalism since they sometimes recover them without damage or minimal damage like broken window and the take off panels to disconnect the gps sometimes rip cables
That's because the Vins been altered so they put theft/ van.
Those impact marks on the front passenger side window of that Ram TRX are more likely where firefighter/police tried to gain entry and didnt know the windows were bullet proof.
No, somebody died in there. There was nobody to rescue.
Or someone famous rolled it and they were trying to get them out... that truck rolled a few times
@@GardenGuy1943 You STILL need to get them out of the vehicle and you cant know that until you get inside to asses them.
@@GardenGuy1943the lil durk trx? No one died in that afaik
@@GardenGuy1943son, no
That TRX may have had some secret 'storage' compartments too
Not an expert but that maybe a car that was used buy guys a little south of the US or people connect to a business that requires a bulletproof truck. And it actually makes a lot of sense that it’s gone missing. It won’t come back on a market, it’s just gone forever.
@@eliaswreford4523it’s lil durks trx he flipped it a few months ago
@@eliaswreford4523 Did you even watched the video? It's lil Durks TRX
@@eliaswreford4523bruh you have got to be slowwwww gah damn😂😭
yee its durks

I bought a low mileage rolled Tacoma with the V6 and a 6-speed manual. Used a lift to straighten out the cab just enough to get glass back in it and sold it for damn near double the money. It looked awesome. Every single panel was damaged so there was not point in trying to make it pretty. Mint interior but wasted on the outside: literally the perfect truck.
Rip to the person that bought it thinking it was perfect Tacoma 💀
@@TheBravo13x mechanically it was perfect and the interior was perfect as well but every panel was super damaged. The guy who bought it knew exactly what he was getting: a brand new Tacoma inside but a real shi*t show on the outside. Lol
Bro I think you sold it to my neighbor. Been working on the paint of a Tacoma for actually years
@@itsTomate wow that’s awesome. It was sold in Tucson AZ.
Yeah but I can imagine all that reinforcing for the bulletproofing is going to add a lot of cost
Durk done did a drill in that TRX😂😂
Fax
🤣
That Track Hawk would be a decent buy. That TRX might need a full body swap. 🤔
i would definitely buy the trackhawk with a clean title or a salvage title and rebuild it.
Agreed, that’s a bad little girl, even badder because she went full GTA
That red is so clean 🔥🔥
Hell yeah more armored car/truck videos please
I’d love to see you get this and see what you find while you do a rebuild.
Why do you say that. You can’t just comment that not explain.
I love these salvage yard walks!
That must have been a really poor quality armoring job if the accident caused the back window to pop loose. Wonder what happned.
@@sys-administratorI mean there bed was closed in the video. It has a cover
@@sys-administratorlol ok.
armored does not equal crash proof. it will bust apart like any car.
@@sys-administratoroh yea because someone’s going to throw a f ing grenade at lil durk. Come on
@@GrizzlyEats Yeah it's kinda useless in any major crash. As far as protecting the body and frame anyway
I love the hellcat durangos, upsetting to see one sitting in a copart. Not a huge jeep fan, but its easy to appreciate a supercharged one. my dads been looking for a trx for as long as i can remember. Sick copart trip all in all!
It would be awesome if you guys restore/broke down a CT4 or CT5 V Blackwing.
Good luck finding the TRX, that would be the craziest tow pig ever.
To make it simple, how many cars with blown bags don't get totaled? First thing I think when I see non wrecked hellcats is theft recovery.
That whole cab is going to be out of square being a rollover ,, definitely needs a cab
Absolutely love the content
OTF shirt 👕 is worth Alot of money and the sunglasses on the dash is worth Alot of money 🤑
They're worth like $20 and a half drank jug of spoiled milk 😂.
Crash happened in Encino CA in Dec 2022. Looks like the TRX was going really fast and side swiped a tractor trailer head on, then went over on its side. The TRX actually came out better than the tractor trailer. You can find videos on CZcams of the crash scene.
Its not the same truck, the one you said had its roof torn off this one does not
The person in this car also died
@@GardenGuy1943that is why it smells awful as it was said
that Durango in that condition and color is amazing. would buy it if the theft rate wasn't so bad, to the point I would have an empty driveway by the next day.
That TRX is a botched armor job no engine protection no upgraded suspension nothing that would really save you
Ever been to Chiraq?
YO THAT ROADSHOW KEYCHAIN YOU SAW IN THE TRX IS FROM A DEALERSHIP HERE IN ATLANTA SEARCH IT UP !!!
we need th trx build🎉
Maaaan, that is one JANK-ass armor job, 100%. High cg and more weight on stock suspension, unarmored floor, engine not protected, no run-flats, stock roof and unarmored cab-rear... That's some dollar store/great value-style "hey, i know a guy that can do it cheaper" hackage.
I like how they dressed all the tires to make them look better hahah
I missed the salvage auction videos! Wooooo
How tf did durk manage to flip this thing?
I be waiting everyday for a new videos 😂
TRX, that'll buff out 🤭
The coolant return line has been cut on the Trackhawk, hope you didn't idle it for too long ;)
This is amazing I love you guys day one fan right here
it indeed looks like the window was shot. seems to be either a 22 or 9mm since its not that big of star in the window
That challenger red eye....that may not just be light front end damage. For one, i notice the engine looked slightly angled, which says it might have been pushed back. Once you get under it, look for marks on the front crossbeams. That may mean more damage and insurance companies use that as a criteria for totaling cars out....depends on the company. Engine looks clean, but there could very well be damage on the bottom end.
That bent rail tells me that there is more damage you cant see from there.
Thing is i see so many Challengers with front end damage. My first, an 09, suffered that fate, so im aware of how this works. Plus, a few friends who are car guys said it could be pulled, but it wont feel or drive the same way again. Maybe you can fix it and get it back to factory specs. Id love to see it.
Fyi, i got a carfax notice on my 09.....it was repaied/rebuilt and is owned by someone in Illinois. I wonder how they made out. Whoever rebuilt it put on a lot of mileage.
Good luck, im interested in seeing what you buy and how you make out.
The red SRT 10 Pickup you bought. Could that have been the same one on Sam Cracc’s channel?
Yo! Happy Friday everyone!😎💯
Eh I like the truck but I like the TrackHawk more. Honestly, that old Porsche in the background looked awesome. Hopefully it relists and you can get a chance to get the TRX.
You should’ve did a review on that white corvette and that green bronco
Does anyone know what model of Cornwell tool box he has? I'm referring to the green one in the background at 10:29
I believe that is Dalt’s. I remember him talking a bit about it in one of the videos, fairly recently, but I can’t remember if it was on this channel or his own channel.
Durks glasses and otf shirt in the back still lol
we love the salvage auction
That Porsche next to the truck is beautiful, I need it
Do you have the VIN for the TRX? I can check to see if my company happened to have purchased it.
Right. Mr ceo
Such a cool guy, love watching your auction videos. Would be cool to tag along with you sometime.
That Trx gives me narco vibes w the bulletproof glass, cb radio and the safe 🤔
It's just a PA system because you can't communicate with people outside the vehicle so I'm gonna assume a 2 way PA system was installed so the occupants don't have to open doors or crack windows to communicate. If you pay attention you can actually spot armored vehicles in every day traffic. More common then you'd think.
I see that OTF hoodie. Must of been Lil’ Durk’s TRX
good idea ram trx proyect , yes will need alot of work and time doing it the right way.
On that trx you WILL need a donor cab and bed, maybe the frame as well. My uncles 2018 silverado needed a bed, and cab it cost him around 8k at a shop
OTF jacket in the backseat too 😮
I been watching this guy for a couple years and I believe he has some very deep pockets lol
that the TRX lil durk Flipped over???
Pretty sure it is
I bet that glass held the truck together to be honest.
You should buy the track hawk and the Durango and run em after their fixed see which is faster
A spilled jug of milk can write a car off, especially in sunny states.
What happened to that hellcat happened to my mustang. I welded some stuff, bent some other things and fixed it. Luckily I don't have enough cash to get in on that auction 😭
the bulletproof glass that you thought was bullet holes on it was just some crcks and bullet would do much more damage.
That box in the glovebox is an aftermarket siren unit.
TRX has a Compustar fob on it too. Extra security. Would something like that or a kill switch be difficult to workaround ?
One day,original,low mileage unabused Dodge muscle will be worth tons!
Imagine owing one and not touching it 😩😩😩😅
@@richieeemosley1178I don’t know if I could resist modifying it! They respond to mods so well.
@@richieeemosley1178 Happens all the time,collectors.
Trucks not but what you SHOULD do is swap everything into a single cab! That would be bad ass!
I've been looking to get a TRX, sorry Raptor but TRX seems more fun😂
When a tire is spun for extended periods of time they heat up and can get bubbles in them.😊
Track hawk. I love those
The amp was most likely taken out of the car by someone at the salvage yard seeing they probably would have asked the owner for the keys if they showed up to remove the stereo system and amp/amps
lmao, this is highly probable. I've seen this happen a LOT with the infotainment system, they literally swap it with a similar one in the same yard sometimes
@@QsPracticalNonsense yeah you see it too many times in videos as well. But that’s not the only place I’ve seen it.
If it has a "hellcat" engine in it, its almost guaranteed to get wrecked, stolen or extremely tackily "modified". It seems that way at least. Btw, starting a vehicle with that much core support damage is not a brite idea.. more likely then not, someone put the keys away somewhere to keep from more damage occurring
Real question if you buy a theft recovery car with no vin could you keep it? Also if it doesnt have a vin could you get it? Should i bid for one too?
It’s lil dirk’s truck. Those are gun hiding places. So don’t be surprised if you find a pistol in that safe.
Yep! That’s exactly what I was thinking. A pistol and maybe a bit of that green tobacco stuff…😂
Those windows blow out when you pull the escape handle. When you drive into water or get trapped there are explosive charges to blow the front and or back window out for you.
Y’all should put a hell cat motor in a 200 s Chrysler lol
lol yes
make a light weight armored panels for the rear bed and make it trophy truck style, that would be dope instead of a rear bed
That’s lil durks crashed Trx for sure!!
Frame is TRX specific (reinforced for going off-road)
I think it would be cool to rebuild the trx but easier said than done
***I talked to the State Troopers when I got my rebuilt 4Runner inspected, they said Insurance companies are totaling stolen vehicles because they are concerned that there may be fentanyl in it. Better to total it than risk paying out after an accidental death. ***
lil durk truck.
“crash the trx truck, had the phone in my hand”
The purple car I'm sure has significant undercarriage damage lt hit something while jumping a curb hence flat fronts n rear bumper cover caught ground on landing and popped it loose. That car definitely needs to be looked at the underside
There was an OTF Hoodie in the back of the TRX. I would assume that is Lil durk TRX or maybe even Lil Baby TRX
17:30 those marks are from someone trying to break in. My ford got broken into multiple times from that spot. Pierce a little hole and get access to the pull up knob or whatever its called
Lmao they had that za in the trackhawk😂😂
This guy needs more followers!
Haha, that demon turned you into a mopar man😂😂 I absolutely love it. MOPAR Or No Car!! And those motors are always so sexy to look at. On another note, my son and I were so thrilled to see you at ROADKILL!! He wanted to talk to you so badly because of your channel, we watch all of your content
14:04 who Eva get that trackhawk I detail and travel 😂😂
That green Bronco was a Raptor Bronco. Shoulda checked it out!
Lil durk rolled the trx
anyone know how much the track is going for
Last day of September 2023. He’s coming to us from the future 😂
It is impossible to defeat a person who never gives up.
Track hawk looks like it blowing coolant out
My brother, you already bought a Ford f 150 at auction to bring it back to life. Jesus Christ bless you Hugs from Amazonas Brazil
@@Scraplifegarage.-.- Jesus Christ Bless you in your Projects
Luv that Mopar red Jeep Cherokee Trackhawk nice clean minus interior needs cleaning which no big deal for me & TRX shame got flipped over during accident even has CB radio neat
Hell yea that’ll be a sick fix
Depends on if you want to go sleeper build. (take off the TRX unique body parts but keep TRX tuned parts on it) Yes totally go for it should not be hard to rebuild at all. If you want to keep the TRX body and restore it,............... run away it's been modded to much you will have to replace everything, and it's all TRX specific so it ain't cheap.
Chances are the truck is a cartel truck and it developed interest from law enforcement. So it might be seized, and crushed.
Think it was lil durks trx rapper
did you watch the video? the truck was owned by famous rapper Lil Durk
The Durango the interior Porter part because they tried to steal using the OBD port and a hand held device
I seen the purple hellcat crash bro was doin a rolling burnout at a take over
lkq in akron ,,has 3 or 4 of these trucks they have parted if your interested
the Brabus, Alfa Romeo SUV and porches in the back bro. poor cars 😭
You don't even have to cut and weld. That just needs to be pulled outwards a little, than hammered back into shape.
It's just a sideswipe with the least amount of damage.
In sideswipes, usually, the face of the door just rips off or there it gets sliced, but not here.
Just go to your average body shop and have it back to brand new condition in a few days. Lol.
Typical internet mechanic that spews false info, lmao. I used to work at a body shop, and not only is your assumption of the body damage wrong, but so is your overzealous guess of a repair time frame. To fix all that back to factory specs without replacing any or the majority of the panels would take several weeks. 😂
@@DeflatedMeatballWrong I have been a mechanic for 10 years and fixed the worst looking Vspec II skyline in 3 weeks I can do this in two days so get your head out your ass
@@DeflatedMeatballfacts it’s always so simple for these guys you would think they designed the damn car the way they expect shit to just work out 😂
Thats not a pyro intrustion on the window. probably a heavy rock on the roll over.
I have a complete 2017 cab undamaged. Front end and bed, not so much.
