Love how simple and to the point you explain yourself. I had done this and to works . My side gig . First month I made 1000 Second month 2000 3 rd month 2400 So far so good My own hours and I control the money flow . Simple cars , simple repairs , no flashy cars . I don't rip off anyone . But I don't tell my wife what I made . U know why !!!!!
Lololol. Ya man I enjoy it. Besides this nightmare of a car I got in my garage right now. What was supposed to be a quick cosmedic fix up turned into a new cylinder head, timing chain, fuel pump, fuel lines, ect. Smh
@@BuddysDIY sometimes you have to quit at it. I learned that with a Subaru....( My eyes is twitching still ) Point is .....I make 500 , 1000 , 800 , 1500 . Simple cars , dodge caravans , hondas , toyotas etc . Get it , wash it , fix it , shine it , sell it.
@@diegomartinmartindiego7829 ohh trust me I know haha. I should have scraped this piece a week ago. But I figured it would make some good content for the channel. If it wasn't for my channel it would be in the scrap yard right now. Haha
I agree. This was very educational. You’re a talented individual because not just anybody can tear down and put back together all these road worthy machines. I would also add the labor ($40-60/hr for a skilled mechanic; $60 for more complex stuff like Beamers, Benz’s etc.) & deal scouting time & online adds+ actual physical in person sales ($20-40/hr for a full-time business marketer) to the total as time is money so maybe $6-900 total in labor costs in the deal.
Really well done. It’s rare you’ll find anyone documenting the flip process from A-Z and taking the time to explain your thought process. I like how you broke down the repairs in other videos too. Making content for the DIY as well as overall process. Well done and you’ve got a new subscriber.
@@airsoftarmor I really think it has to do with where you live. I've read every comment on this video and it seems like it's from one extreme to another.
I can't believe how watchable these are. You give so much information and you are not annoying to listen to at all. I live in Washington state and I read the car flipping tax laws. They are pretty cumbersome here.
I been flipping vehicles since I was 18 I'm 31 now. For a good period of that time that was my main and only income I've made 20k in 3 months. Its a lot tougher now a days to make that kind of money but still very possible! Craigslist was the place to use until Marketplace took over and craigslist started to charge $5 a post... I've talked a person down from 3k to $350 and they delivered it to you after i went and seen it and walked away from it the first time. Never be scared to throw out a number but never be the first to put a number out there, let them talk themselves down first, once they do you know you can always get them lower then that number they took you. I just bought a 1980 Camaro the guy was asking 8k i got it for 5500.. Needs nothing, I'm putting it up for 15k! This channel is awesome I'm definitely going to stay watching! Get me more pumped to keep flipping!
@@BuddysDIY 🤣🤣 Yeah dude it was unheard of. I went looked at it walked away the dude texted me a couple hours later then i got him to 350 and he delivered it lol.
Love this video! Honestly I think the most valuable thing you have here is your ability to diagnose car problems. Seeing a checklist of items to find the cause of a specific problem and knowing how the different systems work and how they can cause issues, are absolute gold nuggets. If you made more videos on how to fix car issues like you did with the rough idle in this video, I’d watch every single one of them and be subbed forever.
That's very true boss!! I appreciate that feed back. Another channel to check out for you would be south main auto. He does alot of troubleshooting stuff!! I think you'd like it!
Brake booster is kind of a mid level repair, and the ac repair takes some knowledge. These repairs at a shop would have been expensive! seller got a good deal as did the buyer. Great vid!
Thank you for posting videos about Car Flipping. I actually heard a bit about that with research into restorations with looking into detailing. And I have to say, thoroughly impressed with the business and might be looking into that myself. Your videos are super helpful and I appreciate the time and effort you take into producing these videos. Thanks again!!!
Great job Buddy. I really appreciate the hustle !!! As a consultant I sell my time. Time is the most valuable thing you have. You can always make more money per hour, and obtain assets, you can not create more time. I used to flip motorcycles, then cars, now houses and businesses. It would be interesting for TH-camrs like you to keep a time log so that he can equate a hourly rate. This is what is more important that proceeds from the sale. Clearing "2.2k" and mean $20 an hour of $200 an hour. I think you will find that certain types of issues with car flips are more profitable than others. This will also you to sub out less profitable tasks and allow you to scale.
Absoultely love this kind of content! Finally a great flipping channel that doesn't half-ass things & is willing to show the entire process. Definitely subscribing & activating notifications, keep on doing your thing brother!
One of my quickest flips i bought a non running van for 400$ and it turned out to be the ignition switch, it was 12$ I had to lower the steering column and I sold it for 2,200$ a week later!
careful when cleaning MAFs there are two types that come in these earlier models: hot wire and hot film. You can only use MAF cleaner on the hot wire type sensor. If you try to clean the hot film type the cleaner can completely sever it with the pressure.
just what i need to start with. Ive been flipping bicycles and making around 150usd to 600usd profit each bicycle. now im planning on flipping cars. its a different thing...but i will try . thanks buddys diy i will learn a lot from you.
This is the first video of yours that I have seen. 15 minutes later im subbed. Such good info and organized and layed out in an efficient manner. Awesome content, thanks
I just want to thank you not only for this FREE education but also for your time when making these videos they are so well put together and I can’t help but binge watch more videos. I can’t wait to be a women in this field and kill it in NY
Got me and 5 other friends to sub. More mechanics need to do there videos like yours. Simple, loid voice, great recording angles, and straight to the point.
This is awesome. Great job explaining everything. fast paced and loud and clear definitely subscribing and I'll be spreading the word about your videos thanks a bunch homie
I'm a first time viewer - just subscribed. Wow!!! Amazing purchase & repairs. You are definitely a pro. Great job. I am memorizing how you negotiate price. Thanyou very much.
I got so addictive that I watched all 7 episodes in a row, super interesting even though I'm 16 and don't know that much about cars this channel has some valuable information for me to rememorize, looking forward for these types of videos.
This video is really helpful man, loved that you showed every step, and most importantly loved that you showed when the things on your list didn’t turn out to work so you moved on to the next. I’m 17 trying to get myself ready for the future, getting ideas of quick and easy cash. Loved the video man👍🏽
This profit he's getting is neither easy nor quick cash. This guy is a seasoned car mechanic and he would make much more money if he just worked at a regular workshop. He's into this car flipping business only for the freedom he gets from working on his own I guess.
Good tips for anyone trying to get into this. Always refresh your marketplace and set the options to “newest first” that’s how you get deals. I get crazy good deals all the time. Me and my friend are opening a car lot. Good luck. 👍🏼
Idk, even tho I'm upcoming driver (having driving test in a week) and I don't own a car yet, I love watching videos like this. Thank you for great content
Great pragmatic approach, youtube knew I was working on 5 or 6 cars in the last month or two as favors for people, and suggested you. It's trying to tell me something, thanks Buddy, I am buying my first flip in 1 month from now
Would you consider including an hours invested section along with the dollars calculated? I am super curious to see how the hours of buying the vehicle, getting parts, fixing and selling all come together. What do you end up making hourly after flipping?
I’m sure it varies due to every car and part circumstances so that’s hard to calculate especially with online parts vs in store or engine problems vs maintenance
@@daquanwebb7343 really have to just keep it deal per deal, car per car, cant quantify hourly things when you will be making basically a commission of each car--BUT you cans still do an hourly rate but id rather just say ok 500 total for a blazer that i sold it--after cleaned up/etc. my profit was 2500 cash--then you can deduct ALL your cost--then whats left get a general idea of how much you made per hours invested....
I flipped cars for car lots in Florida and did it for around 20 years. I had 3 car dealers who wanted to back me for a dealers license but it was cheaper at the time to just go with them to auctions and pick cars for them . I would get 25 dollar cars and turn them in to 900 to 2000 dollar cars for the lots and we all made lots of money . I could guarantee all the cars I did to have a 2 year warranty because I put in good new parts and not junk yard crap the car lots loved me because I did a good job and was fast . at the time in Florida you could have a lot and sell up to 7 cars at a time without a license and I had a huge back yard. it was all good tell I blew out my back and became totally disabled in 1999 . I did the car flipping gig from 1979 to 99 tell I totally F'ed myself lucky for me it was on the job and I got SSI
just started watching your vids- and your advise is spot on with the negotiations - i flip on the side and 2 things i learnt - 1) people who make offers in text aren't serious usually 2 ) serious people send phone numbers.. i always take it right to phone calls , shows your serious
Well done bro! I love watching when somone do all honest. And one important thing, u didn't just flip that car, u invested your time, and fix that! Good job.
What part of coming over for a $1400 car ad and not having any plans for paying more than $500. He offers $500 dollars, the same thing as a scrap yard. If I post a car for $1400, cancel my Saturday or Sunday plans with my family because Im having somebody over to look at a car and you offer $500, your gonna be limping home.
@@tren35 hahaha hey man people have made me walk before. Sometimes they call me a few weeks later asking me if I'm still interested. I always leave on a Good note with my standing offer haha.
I used to have this exact Blazer same color in all! Its the fuel pump! Chevy Blazers , GMC Jimmy’s and Oldsmobile Bravado’s are notorious for the fuel pumps going out and failing 1997’s through 2001’s and CHEVY knew it!!
That was great, you made this girl feel like an expert in 1 video!!! Will be binge watching the others! I love being knowledgeable about how to fix minor things on a car, so I don’t get taken advantage of.
your video is great. you have some real talent. you basically covered several different topics in one video and it flowed nicely. im working on the same truck right now taking a break. keep up the good work !
I thought I was a beast for flipping Hondas . I sell about 1 a month give or take ,usually to highschool kids but there is always room to learn more. Thanks for the extra knowledge
Great video. I appreciate how easy you make it look and also how honest you are on the fact that it's sometimes not easy at all. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Montreal, Canada.
@@metalhd7277 When I really like a channel I just copy the URL and open another window and mute the ad. I hear you, it's more work than most people are willing to do but to me, it's just a cool way to support them and it cost me nothing but a few clicks.
I'm not usually "This Guy" but I gotta say it!! That plug you used on the vacuum hose.... that's a 3/8 Ratchet not a socket... hahaha.... of course I know you know this and it was a simple whoops but I just had to say something! haha thanks for the tutorials. I've been flipping cars my entire life that Started with me busting my nuckles turning wrenches with my grandfather when I was old enough to walk.... you win when you take an extra min take your time and make sure you don't get to excited or in a rush and miss something big that puts you in a rut you cant pull out of.
Bro dont pay attention to the "Chris fix vibes" BS you make awesome content and you are helping me out in so many ways!!!! So much that im buying tools and all kinds of stuff to start fixing up cars and flipping them myself!
@J 100% man. If you call a shop and ask how much it would be to put a evaporator in a chevy blazer I guarantee it you won't find a single shop that will do it under 800.
He’s knowledgeable and proficient, why work for any business when you’re the boss. With every car you own comes a certain experience and he has the skill set to be greater. Lived’
Bro people keep telling me this. And I'm excited to blow up. I get like 40-60 subs a day now. So I guess you're not lying. Some great stuff I got planned ahead for you guys in the future. Only been making videos for 5 months now! More awesome stuff to come brother! Appreciate the support!!!
You did it right. You obviously have good knowledge. So far I understand the cooling system so I can do stuff like flush, heater core, water pump and maybe radiator stuff. I can change starter and alternator. I also can do basic body work, filling, painting etc.. How do you know so much!!? Also what systems would you prioritize learning about if I wanna get into flipping.
Learn ac systems! They are pretty easy and aftermarket parts are cheap. If a car has no ac then it could be a super easy fix and you cna get cars for cheap!
Yeah if you get a shop to take out the freon that would be the right thing to do. But most cars with ac issues have leaks with no freon in the first place haha.
@@BuddysDIY lol that's true.. it would be dope if you're trying to diagnose leak if you can use an innert gas like Helium or something else to figure out where the leak is coming from.. oh shit just looked it up. there is something like that.. Idk if they made it cheap tho and for home use... heliumleakdetection.net/what-is-helium-leak-detection/
Ok, you are doing good, one thing start with the simple things 1st, vacuum leak 1st thing to fix and most of the time easiest thing to fix I bought a 6 year old trans am for $1100 fixed the vacuum leak sold it the next day for $5500. Another thing a bad maf or 02 sensor will set its own code nothing wrong with installing new fuel filter that's a good move, I usually change oil and tranny fluid and filter just to see cond of vehicle before I sell it... also buy a sniffer for the ac, $200 quick and easy. You are doing the right thing...
I sincerely admire you, a young man very professional, sharing his knowledge plus the skills to produce and edit so perfectly the videos, man!!! you are a better producer then mechanic. You inspire me ... thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Yeap he had to fix a lot of things i sureley don't want to be a boiling pot inside a car with no ac on or stop in the middle of the road when a light is green and the truck won't move or annoying sound everytime im driving. What matters is whats inside the truck.
@@BuddysDIY yessir the profit you made was impressive its called business like you said if people like it they will buy it for what price they think is fair and 3k for it is defenetly a good price all they have to do is take care of it and it will last awhile.
I had 94 Lincoln town car. I bought for $700, planning to repaint it and sell for $1500. However, 1⃣I lost all the keys for that car, 2⃣My landlord didn't like broken car on her driveway, 3⃣I had to fix the control arm. For those reasons, I decided to sell the car for $300. Local "buy junk car" guy came to the house, and towed away in only 3hrs after the post. I hate lowballers so I usually just ignore those people who just text me a number like "200". But, even the person like me, sell the car dirt cheap when its a right timing.
Hey Chris! I want to start flipping cars myself and wondering how you handle the title process. Do you have the seller sign the title and leave the rest blank. And when you sell it just have the buyer fill in their information. Or how do you handle this??
SUBSCRIBED!! Awesome videos! You remind me of ChrisFix! Super interested in flipping cars and this was great, looking forwards to more tips on the good AND bad on car flipping!
Ive been hearing alot of people saying im the next chris fix lol. He's super good at what he does so i appreciate that! More to come. BMW just got sold I gotta make a video on. Also working on a colbalt that hasent been too nice to me lol.
LOVE LOVE LOVE how detailed this video is, as well as the links on how to fix the specific problem with the car. Very organized and appreciated. You got yourself a new subscriber.
It would be cool to understand Title and Taxes on these cars. For example, if you purchase a car private party, do you need to transfer the title into your name before selling it to the next person? Or do you need a dealers license to avoid paying sales tax and passing that sales tax to the end-user?
legally unless you have a dealers license yes. the way to get around it is have a title signed by seller only then when you sell it you can put new buyers name on it. then basically its like they sold to each other. not legal at all and you could rack up a forgery charge lol. most states have a limit on how many you can transfer in year. ky is 5. more than that they force you to get a dealers license. dealers license is a headache as well in some states. ky you have to have 100 sf office that isnt your home and a 100 ft x100ft gravel lot or paved. you also have to pay for a bond unless you can present a huge amount of assets that will cover it. you also have to have a sign and your hours on the office. dealer insurance is also required but thats prob better as you it will cover whatever you drive and its not very expensive. the idea of flipping them and selling them online like this is nice but alot of hurdles if you do more than a few. dealer license should be updated for internet selling personally. thats how most people do business in this day and age for the most part but the part of the government that issues licenses still thinks like 1970 with plaid suit salesmen trying to beat you out of a dollar. probably because its elected officials and the last time they bought a car was in the 70s lol.
@@BuddysDIY i thought u might calculate, put down for the seller: Auto 500 plus engine repair 500 AC compressor 300 this/that 200 and u r by 1500. Where I live they used to shift back counters on the cars eg. origanal was 200k miles, they put it back to 100k but now new legislation forbids that.
I know this video old but dude just found it and I have a Tahoe and man I bought a Tahoe for 1600 dollars with 135k on it and the guy said he couldn’t get it running right it was doing the rough idle and I was like damn well might as well do it so bought it and I couldn’t get the po171 code gone and this video helped me get it fixed and running correctly now I could sell it for 4-5k thanks man keep up the great work
I kind of feel like that’s irrelevant to the topic of flipping cars because you’re not an employee you’re an entrepreneur and you are working to earn a profit, not to bill yourself for your hours worked. While I wholeheartedly agree that your time is valuable and that you should be mindful of how much work you are putting in, it doesn’t make much difference in the long run because you are doing the work for yourself and you are profiting from your labor indirectly If you broke it down by hours then you are basically trying to talk yourself out of flipping cars because you could say “you could have made x amount of dollars just fixing other peoples cars with none of the risk involved with putting up your own money” but then you miss the point of working for yourself and reaping the rewards of your own skills AND working how you want to, where you want, and WHEN you want to on your own schedule
Bruh. VERY well put. I agree wholeheartedly. I actually did add the labor time and hourly of what I made on the last flip video. I've gotten literally hundreds of people saying I should calculate what I made per hour. But yeah I agree that who cares. As long as you didn't spend a hundred hours making 100 bucks. The freedom to work for yourself is priceless
I used to do this back in the 90's. They had a section in the classifieds: cars for sale by owner under $1000. I would look for ANY pickup truck. If it cranked, went forward when you hit the gas, and the brakes stopped it, I'd buy it. I would buy a car for $300-500 or so, drive it to the Walmart parking lot and park near the main road. I'd put sign in the window "FOR SALE: $2000 OBO" with my cellphone number in it ( I had a burner phone just for this). I'd go sit at the McDonalds inside the Walmart. Within a few hours I'd get a call and someone would offer $1600 or so. If they had the cash, I'd meet them and sign their name as the buyer on the title. I made anywhere from $700 to 1800 in a day and never did any work to the trucks, and was never on paper in the transaction. I'd do this about once or twice a month when I could find a good truck. Made almost as much doing this as from my full time job. I'd put half the cash in the bank and the other half I'd spend on scratch tickets, hookers, and weed. Ah, the 90's. What a decade.
Hell yeah! Get that Bread! Glad I found yo Video! I just recently bought a 2009 impala SS and she doesn't crank, start or nothing. She has power though. I sprayed starter fluid in the intake and she started back firing. Which makes me believe Fuel is not getting to the engine. I only know so much about Cars... So I took her in to the shop. Been a week now that they had it. Point is this type of Side hustle is Great if you know more than just knowing how to do a Oil Change, tire Change, & Tune ups
I wan't to get into this since it seems fun and money always appeals to a student but i''m worried that i'll do the repairs wrong and end up selling a dodgy car to someone. i'm trying to learn from videos like this but still not confident enough to do it
Subacribe the the channel. I have alot of great diys! As soon as you start messing around with cars you'll get super confident pretty quick. They all work the same! (For the most part)
Yeah this video I more for people who know at least a little about cars. You can always find cars that need maybe new seats and a new bumper or something and some TLC!
Chris lost me when he started driving over cars. Buddy’s whole concept is to be creative and constructive. Always an adventure, plenty of teaching and fingers crossed he makes some dough!
way too much? i don't know about that one my friend, theirs people boardline begging for someone to get some vehicle out of their hair and theirs always someone who's boardline willing to kill for one they want or can afford. Its all in this video, Not every sellers gonna be as bad ass as this one he found, stuck gold on that one, but as he said his buying pitch is "about exactly always the same, almost word for word." But hey just like you said "Basically eceryones doing this", but I say "Well everyone but you, not just that, It may seem like everyone is, but are they really? and can you do it better? thats what makes or breaks it, that's what it boils down to, Can you do it better, or at least give it your resolves Absolutely Best with all thats required to make, record, edit, and post your repair job? you won't know unless you try friend, If you do come back and give me a shout out and ill check your channel out, I promise you this much ill help you out and point you in the right direction if its within my power n knowledge, but dont doubt yourself and just Try!"
@@BuddysDIY bring em on, my buddy johnnys a shark on that buying and flipping, I specialize in tech, And yes Any form from software to hardware, video, editing, gaming, developing, dissambling, you name it I might know it, if not ill learn it
The fuel filter feeds both banks so it would never have been a fuel filter fault. Just a bit of advice for the future. On a V engine if the fault code is saying either bank 1 or 2 then the fault is easier to find usually as you can rule out a lot of potential issues (like fuel filter, air flow sensors on a single intake etc) straight away. Single bank engines can be harder to narrow down any issues as there is obviously only one bank.
One of the common overlooked issues with the Blazer/Jimmy is the Fuel pressure regulator Which has a fine fuel screen It gets clogged And holds back fuel when off And dry rots the seals In turn When the truck starts a good part of the fuel leaks out a weeping hole into the intake And a tell tale sign is a washed off area in the back of the intake where carbon is cleanned off A number of people run out and buy a fuel filter, Fuel pump Get a injector clean Even buy a new injection system instead of a $10 reg....The other issue is the 4x4 And vaccum hose that leads into the fender Along with a weak driver motor Or valve Which only sets the gears in half way And they get chewed with in mins
Deals like this are difficult to find, especially on Facebook. Any car that’s listed under $2000 usually has a shit ton of people messaging the seller within minutes of it posting. Most of the time if you come across someone willing to sell a car for $500 it has major issues such as a blown head gasket or bad transmission. Also if you flip more than a few cars per year you will need a dealers license in most states, many flippers use the skip title method but just don’t get caught if you choose that method

Appreciate it guys!!
I agree. This was very educational. You’re a talented individual because not just anybody can tear down and put back together all these road worthy machines. I would also add the labor ($40-60/hr for a skilled mechanic; $60 for more complex stuff like Beamers, Benz’s etc.) & deal scouting time & online adds+ actual physical in person sales ($20-40/hr for a full-time business marketer) to the total as time is money so maybe $6-900 total in labor costs in the deal.
@@cgiles9086 I think mechanics charge about $100 - $150 an hour these days. $40 - $60 is 2000s pricing

I find deals like this alot
@@airsoftarmor I really think it has to do with where you live. I've read every comment on this video and it seems like it's from one extreme to another.
My buddy bought a blazer for 500 also they are very reliable
It nothing golden about it. It a crack head car I cound 10 of them for 500$ I like messing with cars. Buy and sell campers are way better money
I own a 06’ trailblazer and you just helped me figure out what’s wrong with my idle 🤣 preciate it man
Hahahah no issue. More great content to come!!
I can't believe how watchable these are. You give so much information and you are not annoying to listen to at all. I live in Washington state and I read the car flipping tax laws. They are pretty cumbersome here.
I been flipping vehicles since I was 18 I'm 31 now. For a good period of that time that was my main and only income I've made 20k in 3 months. Its a lot tougher now a days to make that kind of money but still very possible! Craigslist was the place to use until Marketplace took over and craigslist started to charge $5 a post... I've talked a person down from 3k to $350 and they delivered it to you after i went and seen it and walked away from it the first time. Never be scared to throw out a number but never be the first to put a number out there, let them talk themselves down first, once they do you know you can always get them lower then that number they took you. I just bought a 1980 Camaro the guy was asking 8k i got it for 5500.. Needs nothing, I'm putting it up for 15k! This channel is awesome I'm definitely going to stay watching! Get me more pumped to keep flipping!
Awesome brother. 350 from 3k is not a bad pull at all haha. I'll take you w me next time I go see a car 🤣
@@BuddysDIY 🤣🤣 Yeah dude it was unheard of. I went looked at it walked away the dude texted me a couple hours later then i got him to 350 and he delivered it lol.

Brake booster is kind of a mid level repair, and the ac repair takes some knowledge. These repairs at a shop would have been expensive! seller got a good deal as did the buyer. Great vid!
Thank you sir!!!! Ohh man the brake booster on this blazer was the hardest booster I've ever done hahha.
I’m looking to invest some money into flipping cars and after watching these two videos I’ve learned a lot! Thank you 🙏🏽
There is a third video!! Be sure to check it out!
Thank you for posting videos about Car Flipping. I actually heard a bit about that with research into restorations with looking into detailing. And I have to say, thoroughly impressed with the business and might be looking into that myself. Your videos are super helpful and I appreciate the time and effort you take into producing these videos. Thanks again!!!
Appreciate the kind words my friend there will be more to come
Great job Buddy. I really appreciate the hustle !!!
As a consultant I sell my time. Time is the most valuable thing you have. You can always make more money per hour, and obtain assets, you can not create more time.
I used to flip motorcycles, then cars, now houses and businesses.
It would be interesting for TH-camrs like you to keep a time log so that he can equate a hourly rate. This is what is more important that proceeds from the sale. Clearing "2.2k" and mean $20 an hour of $200 an hour.
I think you will find that certain types of issues with car flips are more profitable than others. This will also you to sub out less profitable tasks and allow you to scale.
Absoultely love this kind of content! Finally a great flipping channel that doesn't half-ass things & is willing to show the entire process. Definitely subscribing & activating notifications, keep on doing your thing brother!
Glad to hear man. More to come! Appreciate the love
One of my quickest flips i bought a non running van for 400$ and it turned out to be the ignition switch, it was 12$ I had to lower the steering column and I sold it for 2,200$ a week later!
careful when cleaning MAFs there are two types that come in these earlier models: hot wire and hot film. You can only use MAF cleaner on the hot wire type sensor. If you try to clean the hot film type the cleaner can completely sever it with the pressure.
Good tip. Honestly I didn't know that
So how would you clean the hot film type? Just replace it completely??
Honestly flipping cars is such a good skill... if youre smart about it you can work youre way up to pretty much any car you want
just what i need to start with. Ive been flipping bicycles and making around 150usd to 600usd profit each bicycle. now im planning on flipping cars. its a different thing...but i will try . thanks buddys diy i will learn a lot from you.
I already flipped so many cars this year. This video will help me step my game to another level
Get that money homie
wow, I'm 15, and I love Chevy's, and this is inspiring me to buy a cheap car for my first car then fix it up for my self. Great video man!
Oh man, I have another favorite car channel other than ChrisFix now.
Hahaha I hope to live up to the expectation!!
This is the first video of yours that I have seen. 15 minutes later im subbed. Such good info and organized and layed out in an efficient manner. Awesome content, thanks
Awesome to hear! Check out the other flip videos!
I Don't care that I ever learn from these videos. All I care about each day/night is that I ALWAYS watch your videos ❤
I just want to thank you not only for this FREE education but also for your time when making these videos they are so well put together and I can’t help but binge watch more videos. I can’t wait to be a women in this field and kill it in NY
Wishing you success in your journey.
Got me and 5 other friends to sub. More mechanics need to do there videos like yours. Simple, loid voice, great recording angles, and straight to the point.
My man! Appreciate that bro. More to come brother. Quality vids is my number one priority!
This is awesome. Great job explaining everything. fast paced and loud and clear definitely subscribing and I'll be spreading the word about your videos thanks a bunch homie
Appreciate the support man! Some more to come forsure 💪💪
I'm a first time viewer - just subscribed.
Wow!!! Amazing purchase & repairs. You are definitely a pro. Great job. I am memorizing how you negotiate price. Thanyou very much.
I got so addictive that I watched all 7 episodes in a row, super interesting even though I'm 16 and don't know that much about cars this channel has some valuable information for me to rememorize, looking forward for these types of videos.
The BMW flip brought me here. Keep it up with these videos. They're clear, concise, and intriguing to watch.
Working on the third right now! Stay subed so you don't miss it ;)
@@BuddysDIY already on it. Waiting in that!
Keep doing these car flip videos. The youtube algorithm is picking these up really well people are going to watch and subscribe!
You're 100% right!! Propel love them!!
This video is really helpful man, loved that you showed every step, and most importantly loved that you showed when the things on your list didn’t turn out to work so you moved on to the next. I’m 17 trying to get myself ready for the future, getting ideas of quick and easy cash. Loved the video man👍🏽
Glad you like it brother. Stay tuned to the channel and you learn a bunch!!
This profit he's getting is neither easy nor quick cash. This guy is a seasoned car mechanic and he would make much more money if he just worked at a regular workshop. He's into this car flipping business only for the freedom he gets from working on his own I guess.
Good tips for anyone trying to get into this. Always refresh your marketplace and set the options to “newest first” that’s how you get deals. I get crazy good deals all the time. Me and my friend are opening a car lot. Good luck. 👍🏼
That's awesome man. Best of luck with the lot !
Idk, even tho I'm upcoming driver (having driving test in a week) and I don't own a car yet, I love watching videos like this. Thank you for great content
Great pragmatic approach, youtube knew I was working on 5 or 6 cars in the last month or two as favors for people, and suggested you. It's trying to tell me something, thanks Buddy, I am buying my first flip in 1 month from now
Would you consider including an hours invested section along with the dollars calculated?
I am super curious to see how the hours of buying the vehicle, getting parts, fixing and selling all come together. What do you end up making hourly after flipping?
I’m sure it varies due to every car and part circumstances so that’s hard to calculate especially with online parts vs in store or engine problems vs maintenance
@@daquanwebb7343 really have to just keep it deal per deal, car per car, cant quantify hourly things when you will be making basically a commission of each car--BUT you cans still do an hourly rate but id rather just say ok 500 total for a blazer that i sold it--after cleaned up/etc. my profit was 2500 cash--then you can deduct ALL your cost--then whats left get a general idea of how much you made per hours invested....
I flipped cars for car lots in Florida and did it for around 20 years. I had 3 car dealers who wanted to back me for a dealers license but it was cheaper at the time to just go with them to auctions and pick cars for them . I would get 25 dollar cars and turn them in to 900 to 2000 dollar cars for the lots and we all made lots of money . I could guarantee all the cars I did to have a 2 year warranty because I put in good new parts and not junk yard crap the car lots loved me because I did a good job and was fast . at the time in Florida you could have a lot and sell up to 7 cars at a time without a license and I had a huge back yard. it was all good tell I blew out my back and became totally disabled in 1999 . I did the car flipping gig from 1979 to 99 tell I totally F'ed myself lucky for me it was on the job and I got SSI
that sucks ..:( well hope you enjoying your retirement.
I also hope you're enjoying you retirement!!!
What sucks is in Florida you have to have insurance on the vehicle to have in the drive way...
I think you convinced me to try flipping cars when I get back from my deployment
Edit and you earned a new subscriber
Awesome man!!!!!
just started watching your vids- and your advise is spot on with the negotiations - i flip on the side and 2 things i learnt - 1) people who make offers in text aren't serious usually 2 ) serious people send phone numbers.. i always take it right to phone calls , shows your serious
Honestly flipping cars is such a good skill... if youre smart about it you can work youre way up to pretty much any car you want
absolutely!
You can use a uv light on the condensation hose that leaks water out to see if the evaporator is leaking
Very true. Idk why I didn't think of that haga
If it has been dyed
Well done bro! I love watching when somone do all honest. And one important thing, u didn't just flip that car, u invested your time, and fix that! Good job.
Thanks man!!! Gotta take pride in your work!! Only got one reputation!!
What part of coming over for a $1400 car ad and not having any plans for paying more than $500. He offers $500 dollars, the same thing as a scrap yard. If I post a car for $1400, cancel my Saturday or Sunday plans with my family because Im having somebody over to look at a car and you offer $500, your gonna be limping home.
@@tren35 hahaha hey man people have made me walk before. Sometimes they call me a few weeks later asking me if I'm still interested. I always leave on a Good note with my standing offer haha.
This vid got me started on my way to my my Tahoe, appreciate the content.
Love to hear that man. Keep up the grind!
I used to have this exact Blazer same color in all! Its the fuel pump! Chevy Blazers , GMC Jimmy’s and Oldsmobile Bravado’s are notorious for the fuel pumps going out and failing 1997’s through 2001’s and CHEVY knew it!!
That was great, you made this girl feel like an expert in 1 video!!! Will be binge watching the others! I love being knowledgeable about how to fix minor things on a car, so I don’t get taken advantage of.
This channel is gonna BLOW UP! I'm telling you lol this is a great hustle bro
Appreciate it my man. You're gonna be one of the first few thousand. 💪💪
Love it bro keep pushing out them flips, keep teaching people what you know and love this channels gonna be huge 🙌
@@gavinhurtado6025 That is the goal! Make some money and teach others how to get a piece of the cake!

your video is great. you have some real talent. you basically covered several different topics in one video and it flowed nicely. im working on the same truck right now taking a break. keep up the good work !
Awesome brother. Thanks for the kind words. Stay tuned for more!!
Loved the video. Educational, engaging, well edited; you can tell a lot of effort went into it. Keep up the great work Buddy.
Alooot of time to make this lol. Appreciate the support
It’s crazy how fast you’re becoming one of my fav you tubers
I thought I was a beast for flipping Hondas . I sell about 1 a month give or take ,usually to highschool kids but there is always room to learn more. Thanks for the extra knowledge
Hey man hondas are great to flip. Parts are dirtt cheap!
@what in the world. You know it’s illegal to do that right?
Great video. I appreciate how easy you make it look and also how honest you are on the fact that it's sometimes not easy at all. Keep up the good work. Cheers from Montreal, Canada.
Thank you my friend! Merry Christmas!
I did this for my Cadillac in college bought for 500 cut off at lights spent 700$ fixing everything you did. It broke down 3 months later
Oof
dude caddies are UNRELIABLE
Ouch. Some cars are just ment to be at junk yard
It was a caddy daddy
Nice no bs, straight to the point. I even let the ads run.
You're the real MVP! Haha appreciate the support
I didn’t. My ad was 23 mins long
Hahhahahqhq. I don't pick them man!!!
@@metalhd7277 When I really like a channel I just copy the URL and open another window and mute the ad. I hear you, it's more work than most people are willing to do but to me, it's just a cool way to support them and it cost me nothing but a few clicks.
What i do sometimes for channels I support is click the "visit advertiser" button and click q button or so on the page then go back to the vid.
I'm not usually "This Guy" but I gotta say it!! That plug you used on the vacuum hose.... that's a 3/8 Ratchet not a socket... hahaha.... of course I know you know this and it was a simple whoops but I just had to say something! haha thanks for the tutorials. I've been flipping cars my entire life that Started with me busting my nuckles turning wrenches with my grandfather when I was old enough to walk.... you win when you take an extra min take your time and make sure you don't get to excited or in a rush and miss something big that puts you in a rut you cant pull out of.
Bro dont pay attention to the "Chris fix vibes" BS you make awesome content and you are helping me out in so many ways!!!! So much that im buying tools and all kinds of stuff to start fixing up cars and flipping them myself!
Every time i see descriptions like that, they are in ALL CAPS. And i know damn well someone is getting got.
Lol nobody got got! Seller got some money. Buyer got a nice little suv and I got a few thousand!
@@BuddysDIY Seller got disrespected. Did the new buyer get a warranty for your work?
@@rogerk3304 I told him if any a/c issues arise in the next few months I will fix at no charge

@@blake102989 I blew up foreal! Haha it's been fun!
You did it right. You obviously have good knowledge. So far I understand the cooling system so I can do stuff like flush, heater core, water pump and maybe radiator stuff. I can change starter and alternator. I also can do basic body work, filling, painting etc.. How do you know so much!!? Also what systems would you prioritize learning about if I wanna get into flipping.
Learn ac systems! They are pretty easy and aftermarket parts are cheap. If a car has no ac then it could be a super easy fix and you cna get cars for cheap!
@@BuddysDIY really? don't you have to be careful with the freon and stuff? like disposing it?
Yeah if you get a shop to take out the freon that would be the right thing to do.
But most cars with ac issues have leaks with no freon in the first place haha.
@@BuddysDIY lol that's true.. it would be dope if you're trying to diagnose leak if you can use an innert gas like Helium or something else to figure out where the leak is coming from.. oh shit just looked it up. there is something like that.. Idk if they made it cheap tho and for home use... heliumleakdetection.net/what-is-helium-leak-detection/
@@breadman5048 yeah nitrogen is also used. Safest bet forsure
The way you opened the video roasting the truck had me weak 💀
Lolololol 🤣
Not only was I impressed with the video but the commentary to go along as well was very instructional and inspiring 🔥🙏🏼
I appreciate that! more to come!
Ok, you are doing good, one thing start with the simple things 1st, vacuum leak 1st thing to fix and most of the time easiest thing to fix I bought a 6 year old trans am for $1100 fixed the vacuum leak sold it the next day for $5500. Another thing a bad maf or 02 sensor will set its own code nothing wrong with installing new fuel filter that's a good move, I usually change oil and tranny fluid and filter just to see cond of vehicle before I sell it... also buy a sniffer for the ac, $200 quick and easy. You are doing the right thing...
Loved the documentation. Just bought a house with 4 bay garage and looking to get into a side hobby. Got yourself a subscriber 💯
Lucky! I rigged my two car carport I the a little shop. My next house will have a big shop.
I sincerely admire you, a young man very professional, sharing his knowledge plus the skills to produce and edit so perfectly the videos, man!!! you are a better producer then mechanic. You inspire me ... thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I’d like to point out 90% of the time that offer would got you laughed at
Not true at all. For a car with no ac, and runs like crap it's not worth more than 500.
Yeap he had to fix a lot of things i sureley don't want to be a boiling pot inside a car with no ac on or stop in the middle of the road when a light is green and the truck won't move or annoying sound everytime im driving. What matters is whats inside the truck.
@@pol-ek3yq 100% if brandon there thinks this thing was worth more than 500 he will go bankrupt in this buisness
@@BuddysDIY yessir the profit you made was impressive its called business like you said if people like it they will buy it for what price they think is fair and 3k for it is defenetly a good price all they have to do is take care of it and it will last awhile.
I had 94 Lincoln town car. I bought for $700, planning to repaint it and sell for $1500. However, 1⃣I lost all the keys for that car, 2⃣My landlord didn't like broken car on her driveway, 3⃣I had to fix the control arm. For those reasons, I decided to sell the car for $300. Local "buy junk car" guy came to the house, and towed away in only 3hrs after the post.
I hate lowballers so I usually just ignore those people who just text me a number like "200". But, even the person like me, sell the car dirt cheap when its a right timing.
Bro, I find your videos satisfying! Getting old things fixed is good!
Great video, no clickbait, and you were very detailed!
When he pulled out the staple I knew I was outta my league
Lmao same
Hey Chris! I want to start flipping cars myself and wondering how you handle the title process. Do you have the seller sign the title and leave the rest blank. And when you sell it just have the buyer fill in their information. Or how do you handle this??
I'm also wondering about this. Does it have to be registered while fixing it? Insurance?
SUBSCRIBED!! Awesome videos!
You remind me of ChrisFix! Super interested in flipping cars and this was great, looking forwards to more tips on the good AND bad on car flipping!
Ive been hearing alot of people saying im the next chris fix lol. He's super good at what he does so i appreciate that! More to come. BMW just got sold I gotta make a video on. Also working on a colbalt that hasent been too nice to me lol.

The other three flip videos are just as good if you haven't checked then out already!!
Looks like Matilda's dad is hard at work again!!
It is!
😂😂😂
LOL!
Would be nice if you also mention how much work has been done (hours) + waiting time for parts ; Cheers ;
next video ill touch on that!
I couldn’t stop laughing at the jordan Belford photo 😂😂😭
Yo his podcast is lit
LOVE LOVE LOVE how detailed this video is, as well as the links on how to fix the specific problem with the car. Very organized and appreciated. You got yourself a new subscriber.
It would be cool to understand Title and Taxes on these cars. For example, if you purchase a car private party, do you need to transfer the title into your name before selling it to the next person? Or do you need a dealers license to avoid paying sales tax and passing that sales tax to the end-user?
Wondering the exact thing
legally unless you have a dealers license yes. the way to get around it is have a title signed by seller only then when you sell it you can put new buyers name on it. then basically its like they sold to each other. not legal at all and you could rack up a forgery charge lol. most states have a limit on how many you can transfer in year. ky is 5. more than that they force you to get a dealers license. dealers license is a headache as well in some states. ky you have to have 100 sf office that isnt your home and a 100 ft x100ft gravel lot or paved. you also have to pay for a bond unless you can present a huge amount of assets that will cover it. you also have to have a sign and your hours on the office. dealer insurance is also required but thats prob better as you it will cover whatever you drive and its not very expensive. the idea of flipping them and selling them online like this is nice but alot of hurdles if you do more than a few. dealer license should be updated for internet selling personally. thats how most people do business in this day and age for the most part but the part of the government that issues licenses still thinks like 1970 with plaid suit salesmen trying to beat you out of a dollar. probably because its elected officials and the last time they bought a car was in the 70s lol.
Knew this man was legit when he pulled out that Milwaukee 💪. Not knockin you but you gotta test that maf so you dont waste time you know
I think the most impressive part is how he hagled the price to a 1/3 of the original price
It's not as hard as it seems!!
@@BuddysDIY i thought u might calculate, put down for the seller:
Auto 500 plus
engine repair 500
AC compressor 300
this/that 200 and u r by 1500.
Where I live they used to shift back counters on the cars eg. origanal was 200k miles, they put it back to 100k but now new legislation forbids that.
I started selling mowers now you made me more confident to try to start flipping cars thanks for the game buddy!
Absolutely my man!!
I know this video old but dude just found it and I have a Tahoe and man I bought a Tahoe for 1600 dollars with 135k on it and the guy said he couldn’t get it running right it was doing the rough idle and I was like damn well might as well do it so bought it and I couldn’t get the po171 code gone and this video helped me get it fixed and running correctly now I could sell it for 4-5k thanks man keep up the great work
You should document the hours that you work on the car to find the $/hour of wrench time. It would be a nice addition to the series.
I kind of feel like that’s irrelevant to the topic of flipping cars because you’re not an employee you’re an entrepreneur and you are working to earn a profit, not to bill yourself for your hours worked. While I wholeheartedly agree that your time is valuable and that you should be mindful of how much work you are putting in, it doesn’t make much difference in the long run because you are doing the work for yourself and you are profiting from your labor indirectly
If you broke it down by hours then you are basically trying to talk yourself out of flipping cars because you could say “you could have made x amount of dollars just fixing other peoples cars with none of the risk involved with putting up your own money” but then you miss the point of working for yourself and reaping the rewards of your own skills AND working how you want to, where you want, and WHEN you want to on your own schedule
Bruh. VERY well put. I agree wholeheartedly.
I actually did add the labor time and hourly of what I made on the last flip video. I've gotten literally hundreds of people saying I should calculate what I made per hour. But yeah I agree that who cares. As long as you didn't spend a hundred hours making 100 bucks. The freedom to work for yourself is priceless
I've always wanted to be a self-taught car mechanic. I wish there was an ultra-realistic mechanic simulator to learn this stuff.
Hahaha there is. It's called buy a beater
@@BuddysDIY
lol, true.
Imagine the original seller sees the car going for 3000 more than they sold it for😂
Yeah well if they fixed the busted a/c, brake booster, detailed, and fully serviced it like I did then they coulda sold it for 3k themselves!
@@BuddysDIY Right!!
I used to do this back in the 90's. They had a section in the classifieds: cars for sale by owner under $1000. I would look for ANY pickup truck. If it cranked, went forward when you hit the gas, and the brakes stopped it, I'd buy it. I would buy a car for $300-500 or so, drive it to the Walmart parking lot and park near the main road. I'd put sign in the window "FOR SALE: $2000 OBO" with my cellphone number in it ( I had a burner phone just for this). I'd go sit at the McDonalds inside the Walmart. Within a few hours I'd get a call and someone would offer $1600 or so. If they had the cash, I'd meet them and sign their name as the buyer on the title. I made anywhere from $700 to 1800 in a day and never did any work to the trucks, and was never on paper in the transaction. I'd do this about once or twice a month when I could find a good truck. Made almost as much doing this as from my full time job. I'd put half the cash in the bank and the other half I'd spend on scratch tickets, hookers, and weed. Ah, the 90's. What a decade.
Hell yeah! Get that Bread! Glad I found yo Video! I just recently bought a 2009 impala SS and she doesn't crank, start or nothing. She has power though.
I sprayed starter fluid in the intake and she started back firing. Which makes me believe Fuel is not getting to the engine.
I only know so much about Cars... So I took her in to the shop. Been a week now that they had it.
Point is this type of Side hustle is Great if you know more than just knowing how to do a Oil Change, tire Change, & Tune ups
I wan't to get into this since it seems fun and money always appeals to a student but i''m worried that i'll do the repairs wrong and end up selling a dodgy car to someone. i'm trying to learn from videos like this but still not confident enough to do it
Subacribe the the channel. I have alot of great diys! As soon as you start messing around with cars you'll get super confident pretty quick. They all work the same! (For the most part)
Yeah this video I more for people who know at least a little about cars. You can always find cars that need maybe new seats and a new bumper or something and some TLC!
Chris lost me when he started driving over cars. Buddy’s whole concept is to be creative and constructive. Always an adventure, plenty of teaching and fingers crossed he makes some dough!
🙏🙏❤️
what about the cost of licensing and transferring the title?
State to state it differs. I'm also a dealer so it differs there as well

way too much? i don't know about that one my friend, theirs people boardline begging for someone to get some vehicle out of their hair and theirs always someone who's boardline willing to kill for one they want or can afford. Its all in this video, Not every sellers gonna be as bad ass as this one he found, stuck gold on that one, but as he said his buying pitch is "about exactly always the same, almost word for word." But hey just like you said "Basically eceryones doing this", but I say "Well everyone but you, not just that, It may seem like everyone is, but are they really? and can you do it better? thats what makes or breaks it, that's what it boils down to, Can you do it better, or at least give it your resolves Absolutely Best with all thats required to make, record, edit, and post your repair job? you won't know unless you try friend, If you do come back and give me a shout out and ill check your channel out, I promise you this much ill help you out and point you in the right direction if its within my power n knowledge, but dont doubt yourself and just Try!"

The fuel filter feeds both banks so it would never have been a fuel filter fault. Just a bit of advice for the future. On a V engine if the fault code is saying either bank 1 or 2 then the fault is easier to find usually as you can rule out a lot of potential issues (like fuel filter, air flow sensors on a single intake etc) straight away. Single bank engines can be harder to narrow down any issues as there is obviously only one bank.
One of the common overlooked issues with the Blazer/Jimmy is the Fuel pressure regulator Which has a fine fuel screen It gets clogged And holds back fuel when off And dry rots the seals In turn When the truck starts a good part of the fuel leaks out a weeping hole into the intake And a tell tale sign is a washed off area in the back of the intake where carbon is cleanned off A number of people run out and buy a fuel filter, Fuel pump Get a injector clean Even buy a new injection system instead of a $10 reg....The other issue is the 4x4 And vaccum hose that leads into the fender Along with a weak driver motor Or valve Which only sets the gears in half way And they get chewed with in mins
Deals like this are difficult to find, especially on Facebook. Any car that’s listed under $2000 usually has a shit ton of people messaging the seller within minutes of it posting. Most of the time if you come across someone willing to sell a car for $500 it has major issues such as a blown head gasket or bad transmission.
Also if you flip more than a few cars per year you will need a dealers license in most states, many flippers use the skip title method but just don’t get caught if you choose that method
@azak just don’t sign the title and whenever you sell it just have the new owner sign where you were supposed to sign when you purchased it
how is buddy flipping cars full time without a dealers license!? i dont get it
