You probably dont care at all but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost my password. I would love any assistance you can give me
Equinox had wrong fuse installed. Had one already. Careful when u buy China fuses. All auto parts stores sell them. A 10 amp fuse is really 25 amp fuse
He should because he can create all kinds of content with it but the truth is that the z and pretty much most cars are in their death throws. Nobody is updating cars because nobody buys them.
Hi Randy, sorry about your job. I honestly think things happen for a reason and this is your opportunity to give this channel the growth you deserve. I wanted to let you know that I recently was unsubscribed from a lot of my favorite channels and had to go back and subscribe. I'm sure I didn't resub to all the ones they unsubbed me from. Something to look at or to mention to your subs. Is it legal to maybe start an email sub list to notify your subs of new content etc? That would ensure you can always reach your subs even if this happened to them. Just an idea. Lastly, I'm sure you do, but look at your analytics to see what people love to watch most and spray seasonality etc. It should help as your channel gets ready to explode. I also noticed, when working with other TH-camrs, that when they upload every day for roughly 6 months they grow really really fast. Keep up the great work! I've been there. I was homeless in my 20's and then went from there to running digital for big companies and then investing in real estate. Now I'm focussing on a TH-cam channel and will be talking about digital marketing, analytics, web experiences, investing etc. You got this man. You inspire a lot of people. Hope I can meet you at some point. If you're ever in San Francisco hit me up.
the 370z looks like an easy fix from what we see in the video, the cast aluminum subframe might be tweaked/bent from the impact would be my only consern and I would take a closer look for any signs it has moved/cracked/bent, subframe is a strong part so more likely the arms gave way and its survived
Randy we had a Chevy Equinox same year and about same trim level. I’m telling buy it bc at that price it’s a steal. They are really good and reliable cars.
Randy grab that Chevy Equinox super easy to fix you just have to make sure the fuse box comes from an all wheel drive Equinox I'm willing to bet somebody stuck a big fuse in there or maybe the starter went bad and is shorted and they kept trying to turn the key and start it and start it and burnt the wires up and a fuse box
That equinox looks decent. Swap out the fuse block from the junk yard, pressure wash the engine, maybe even do the valve cover gaskets since they are back there. Throw in the mirror switch and a battery, and it may be worth it to sell for $2,000 quick and easy
That 370, man, it doesn't look that bad at all. Runs good, low miles.......upper and lower control arms, knuckle, tie rod, wheel, body work, end links, and you're probably good to go
That equanox was a steal more money in parting it out u can get 300 for the tranny and the AWD gear box and then the motor u can get a good 300-400 out of it and then the rest of the parts a good 3000 grand just in parts then the scrap money
Randy you remind of a dear friend of mine, he acted an looked a lot like you, he was a perimedic an was killed by a hit an run on his motorcycle, I think he’s Ben reincarnated thanks for the good videos, love the walk arounds
With Onstar you take out the Radio Fuse to disable it. I believe that is correct on that truck. You can also use a Portable Cell Phone Jammer. That is what most Thief's use heck everyone knows that. Most of all if there was no damage to the Ignition on the Steering Column they had a Key and that truck won't start without the chipped key. Module wont let it. Who knows. All kinds of ways to do it.
I think you should take a chance on the Equinox. Other than the minor hail damage, the paint and wheels are in good condition and there were a lot of decent (OEM and Napa) parts in it. I'd say that the prior owner tried to take care of it. The fire damage is contained to a pretty small area. Even if lets say the engine turns out to be bad, I bet you could sell it for parts and make a profit. on it. I like that 370-Z, too but I'd be nervous about what that relocated wheel and tire may have damaged when it shifted. That interior does look sweet in it. Regarding the H3, I have driven one when they were new. You do feel pretty bad-ass driving one but they really are a dog. I think they got the inline-5 and it feels WAY underpowered for what it is. I agree, in the Hummer world, an H2 would be worlds better.
i also had a car that rattled like that when put in drive or reverse, and it was the exhaust clamps 🗜 like the part that secures the exhaust to the under body and they had become loose and would rattle, i just tightened them and it was fixed lol, i thought it was a bad transmission mount or rod knock or something scary
Yeah I did get an I'd buy it if it needed a motor I put a motor in it it's all wheel drive you make money and it looks very clean get a new wire harness from a Pull-A-Part yard
No bags blown on the 370z? 🤣 But I agree it really doesn't look that bad. The strut is in place, the lower BJ snapped on impact and drove the wheel back. If I was using your money I'd take a chance.......😀
On the VW Jetta, Volkswagen were using a light primer under metallic paints at that time to make the colour pop a nit more. Unfortunately that primer doesn't seem to stick to the car or to the colour coat very well so paint losses like that are common and they can rapidly get far, for worse once the paint has started to go as the water-based paint gets attacked by the weather and goes from a few chips like that to peeling off in great sheets as the water gets behind it. From the state of the driver's seat in that one it either hasn't been well cared for or has done a lot of miles, and both of those are pretty bad news on these, more so if it's a petrol/gas engine, but the 2.0TDi tends to have a lot of problems with higher mileage due to them not being built properly in the first place and using parts that wear out and fail, and in several cases can trash the engine entirely, which is obviously not desirable on a cheap car. I'd walk away on this one, the fact it's listed as no odometer reading does rather suggest that the water got high enough to get into one, or maybe several, ECUs and may well have killed them. It's pretty well known that ECU issues on these tend to trigger all sorts of cascading electrical issues on these so there's a good chance that it would turn into a nightmare of chasing electrical maladies and ghosts for a very long time before the car would be ready to sell, rendering it unprofitable, even if it was very cheap to buy...
To bad there not up on blocks so you can see what happened . You speak the truth about cost and return of damage on Vechicle . Still like to see some Rebuilds you done pretty good on return But not for the Daully Chevy not what it said it was .
That 09 avalanche would be a good vehicle depending on why the check engine light was on. The truck has AFM/DOD system which is super temperamental if not maintained. The ticking at start up tells me that it wasn't maintained very well. My 2011 Tahoe has the same system. Those systems can be deleted with a cam swap and tune. It would be a good buy if you're willing to put in some hours to do the work
Wires could be melted all the way, from one end to the other. Ask me how do I know it. One time, a I have swapt two relays between them. They looked the same, but they weren't.
Randy's the type of guy to quote Doug DeMuro.
You probably dont care at all but does someone know of a method to log back into an Instagram account?

@Jasiah Dillon instablaster =)
Equinox,370Z & Avalanche look like good projects
Agreed
Hay, at least you know the quirks and features of the 2016 Nissan 370z
I Think You Should Take That 370Z
The 370z is a a great looking car and would be a sexy beast when fixed
Equinox looks like a great project to me
You can’t keep a good man down. Thanks for all your content. Really enjoy your channel. Keep up the good work.
Yeah you should have get the subway you cannot send put a new fuse box in there and it'll be good to go
Equinox had wrong fuse installed. Had one already. Careful when u buy China fuses. All auto parts stores sell them. A 10 amp fuse is really 25 amp fuse
U should try to get the Nissan 370!!
He should because he can create all kinds of content with it but the truth is that the z and pretty much most cars are in their death throws. Nobody is updating cars because nobody buys them.
Thank you for taking your time to educate me on automobile. God bless you
The equinox would be a good one for Tim's channel.
Great video Randy youve become my favorite youtuber, keep up the great work man!
The Equinox is a no brainer!! The body is perfect on a car of that age! Go for it!!!
The avalanche looked like a strong reliable good running truck all u do is replace the radio windshield and onstar mirror and its a good truck
I daily drive a 2006 H3, and love it, mine is lifted with aftermarket wheels and mud tires. Love the way they look
when an automobile handles like a dream thats a wonderful statement.
370Z looks good for a rebuild project if the price is right.
Love these walk around vids... Keep em coming.
370Z looks like a good pick and interesting vid content, keep up the good work bud.
The avalanche is a great buy you can use it as truck and and you can use the bed as a pool when it's hot.
Of all the video people who do videos on copart your r the best.
An average person can learn a lot from your videos.
Go for the equinox! That could be an easy flip! Thanks for the content!
That bio+body parts car two videos ago really shook me up. I couldn't tell if you were just playing at first, but I found the article.
All I need is the pictures!!!!!!!!
A DOUG DEMURO QUOTE!!! LMFAO!!!

14:45 Randy wtf man a Chevy 😂😂 I was flipping out till you said oh shit it’s a ford 😂😂😂

That subaru Forrester has a blown head gasket
love the walk arounds,thanks
I will always love you’re videos Randy as they are fabulous
Go for the eqinox cuz no matter if you fix it or not parting it out and selling the tires would either make more money or you wouldnt lose money
I enjoy your walk around at corpart, sorry to hear about you getting laid off, keep your chin up Maybe they did you a favor, ur channel is awesome
Randy that black Cadillac XTS you walked by in the beginning of your video looks like it could be an easy fix. I love those cars!
Go for that Zcar Randy!
bad feeling about burn job! don't underestimate your enemy , not worth the chance!
Yard 18 must really love these shout outs
That 370, man, it doesn't look that bad at all. Runs good, low miles.......upper and lower control arms, knuckle, tie rod, wheel, body work, end links, and you're probably good to go
gotta love DeMuro

Equinox for Tim and the 370z for you.
Glad you and Tim got the Equinox. Looking forward to seeing more of it on his channel!
Randy you remind of a dear friend of mine, he acted an looked a lot like you, he was a perimedic an was killed by a hit an run on his motorcycle, I think he’s Ben reincarnated thanks for the good videos, love the walk arounds

Buy the Ram!! I have a 2016 Ram Sport Hemi....great truck!!
That was funny at the end you showed the wheel spinning and the car taking off to the right but the sound went off to the left.

Dude. We had a 2007 Equinox. Those things are AWESOME cars. That would be a greattttttt project.
i also had a car that rattled like that when put in drive or reverse, and it was the exhaust clamps 🗜 like the part that secures the exhaust to the under body and they had become loose and would rattle, i just tightened them and it was fixed lol, i thought it was a bad transmission mount or rod knock or something scary
Your videos r very informative and great.
Iowa's weather is crazier. One day it's snowing, the next it's 80 degrees and sunny, and the next we have a tornado.
So we're all just gona sit back and not notice the cobalt 😍
Do the equinox, offer like 300-350
I have a 30,000 mile 2008 335i and it still smells brand new like that 370z
Love the Hummer !
Yeah I did get an I'd buy it if it needed a motor I put a motor in it it's all wheel drive you make money and it looks very clean get a new wire harness from a Pull-A-Part yard
Buy the Z & Mercedes. Someone unbolted the driveshaft.
I'm not really sure but - at the Mercedes c300: did you push the brake instead of the gas pedal?😅
Avalanche is great too.
I believe that VW's serpentine belt was on inside out. LOL
freaking awesome video bud
The 370..."no bags blown" the drivers bag was clearly blown...jesus this guy pisses me off with his comments
Get the 370Z MAN!! :D Wanna see it DONE!!
for the avalanche there should’ve been a volume button on the steering wheel
Go for it, on the Equanox.
That 370 might be a good project! Samcrac would probably buy in it, if it was in Florida! lol
No bags blown on the 370z? 🤣 But I agree it really doesn't look that bad. The strut is in place, the lower BJ snapped on impact and drove the wheel back. If I was using your money I'd take a chance.......😀

That Equinox is your best bet.
Randy the equinox will need serpentine belts as it looks like those have or are missing a chunk out of the one on it.
Why is that guy with the vest following you around? Afraid you are going to steal one of their valuable cars? Hahahaha
Offer them $350 for the Equinox. Change oil. Replace relay and test all fuses and sell it.
You mean have weird beard sell it
I like the h3s but I like the h3 truck version better cause it looks sweet and they have 5.3l v8 in them
The h3 truck still has the junk straight 5 in them my buddy has one parked at his house
Jon h most of the ones I’ve seen have the v8s lol and the straight 5 aren’t to bad at all
You should show us when you are online on the auction winning cars
Used to...
Should "that's toast" be his catch phrase? It's short and simple and he says it a number of times lol
Great video Randy, nice and long! =D
I wish copart was open on weekends... I work mon-fri and never get a chance to go check one out.. 😪😪
I would go for the equinox.
Even if you can’t get it fixed you could sell the parts out of it and make your money back.
About that 370 dashboard all lights . We call in my country garland lights 😁😁😁
21:50 someody towed that 4matic wrong after te accident and they broke something abviously
I wonder if the oil pressure gauge in the avalanche is just broken or does it just not have oil pressure 🤔
To bad there not up on blocks so you can see what happened . You speak the truth about cost and return of damage on Vechicle . Still like to see some Rebuilds you done pretty good on return But not for the Daully Chevy not what it said it was .

So far the Nissan looks very good for a prospect
Hi randy hope all is well
With the Equinox I would bet a fuse blew and somebody put a higher amp fuse in.. Could be related to that aftermarket stereo in there..
Buy the 370z its easy damage👌👍
Could have frame damage where the control arms mount...
Thank you for nice video
