Rebuilding a low mile 2017 GMC Terrain Denali that was t-boned
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ส.ค. 2024
- Today we start a new build. It is a 2017 GMC Terrain Denali with only 34,800 miles. I happen to have the majority of parts to rebuild this Terrain so the build made sense. I was bidding against a dealer that hacks cars together and runs them back though the auction to prey on unsuspecting buyers. As we will find out in the build, repairing it properly requires more work that a person might think. Just looking good, isn't good enough.

C'mon Scott, really? Boomer package? I am a boomer. Been an engineer for 43 years in a rather technical area of industry called Aerospace. I am a little miffed that you painted all of us with the same broad brush. Both my wife's vehicle and mine have navigation and sun roofs. We have iphones, laptops, tablets, wi-fi, indoor plumbing and electricity too. Imagine that?
Can’t take a joke, are you sure you are not a millennial? Of course that is also a joke but by all means feel free to be offended by that on your way out!
Boo hoo fuckhead. Go take a nap grandpa
@@vehcor I always wondered how you got your haters tears, now after seeing the pin of shame on a few videos I know exactly how haha
I'm going to buy a coffee mug just because haters coffee is better than the town water we have here :P
I just... need to make more videos to fill the reserves lol
Scott does more with a build in 28 min, than most other youtubers do with a build in a couple of weeks.
like a certain brothers channel thats on like episode 33 or something and the cab isnt even back on the truck? lol literally 15 minute videos of nothing,
Editing? This probably took a week not 28 mnts
Don't forget about the lack of awful "entertaining" music when you have nothing important to say...I really look forward to his humor and videos...
@@davemcgaffney9401 yeah his sarcastic wit is great and he fixes things properly… love the videos
@@LaggyWizard agreed. I’d rather subscribe to Scott and support him versus so many other dipshits out there that care nothing about helping to educate their viewers, as Scott does. I know I’ve referenced the Sierra build videos many times to figure out how to do something on my own truck.
That coming off the trailer never gets old.
👍🏻😂
What at first looks like a simple repair, is a lot more complex that it looks. The fact that the B pillar has shifted so much out of alignment means that someone who didn't know what they were doing could easily get it wrong. It will be interesting to watch you do the repair the right way so that the Terrain ends up as good as new and you'd never know that it had been crashed. Someone's going to get a nice vehicle when it's finished. Looking forward to the next video. Hopefully Mr Spotty gets shipped back with the rebuilt seat belts. All the best from Queensland Australia.
So interesting that you made a video like this. We bought a totaled 2016 terrain denali and the guy who fixed it totally. mucked it up. Even glued the rear taillights in. He could learn a thing or two from you.
Glued taillights? Wow, I don’t even want to know how bad the rest was! 😳
You get what you pay for, and if you go shopping for the cheapest guy? Well
Some people are learning proofed, I saw one vehical report that had parts fixed on with woodscrews. Some one took it apart and then fixed it properly, and made a good car out of a death trap.
@@hanshoogendyk2203 There’s nothing in the comment about what they paid, and even if they thought it was a steal they didn’t deserve to buy a piece of junk!
Looks like Scott’s Terrain Emporium will be hit up for a pair of passenger side doors and whatever else that Terrain is going to need!
Yep, everything but the curtain bags and seat cover.
@@vehcor What about a roof skin with a sunroof?
Scott, the unloading sequence will never get old!
" I was bidding against a dealer that hacks cars together and runs them back though the auction to prey on unsuspecting buyers. " Scary To think that this is true. I guess those are the cars that drive sideways down the road. LOL Your rebuilds are the best and enjoyable to watch. Thanks Scott
Miami, FL. I have considered buying one to show what’s out there.
@@vehcor I think that would be a good idea. I just hope it wouldnt cost you more to unf... I mean fix what someone else threw together.
Scott is the man to make it Better than New!
Certainly going to try!
@@vehcor I agree you do GREAT WORK!!! All the best from Canada
Hey Scott, man somebody is going to end up with a real nice clean low mileage Terrain! 👍
I hope so!
Maybe the pizza girl
@@sonny323
She earned it.
I see Mr. Spotty had an escape plan, cleverly disguised as seat belt parts. Paid vacation lol. Also good to see the bumper installation tool works well for knocking stubborn panels off.
Hope there were some air holes in the box for Spotty to breathe
For a brief moment, I was afraid you were not going to scream when backing the Denali off the trailer. Thank you for not disappointing me. I find it very amusing. Plus, I love all of your videos. Keep them coming.
I was thinking the same thing, I’m glad he still did it haha.
Live in Pakistan and watched all your videos religiously....until six months back...don't know why stopped...started again with this one.... absolutely delighted the yelp as you slide the car off is loud and clear 😂
Nice build vehcor keep up doing what you do best which is bring wrecks back to life im a fan of your builds. Shout out from Fresno California 😎
Friday isn't Friday without 'The Scream'! Really enjoy your videos!
Scott’s the type of guy that would spend the entire ride back taking throat lozenges and practicing to get the perfect pitch for the scream coming off the ramp.
I practice for my singing career…. It’s not going well…. 😥
@@vehcor Never think that! I practiced and practiced and practiced for many years. While stationed in Louisiana, I was overheard and I got my big break! I was the 'Wies' voice in the Frog Bud-Wies-Er Commercial! I haven't done anything since, but I mean for that one instant in time, my voice was heard! Yeah, I am just kidding.
I'm sitting here watching as you backed off the trailer thinking "wait for the squeal"
😂😂😂😂
If the trailer is unloaded without the scream, was it really unloaded? 🤷🏼♂️
@@vehcor you make a good point sir lol
I did a very similar repair on a 2010 many years ago but got lucky because it was hit while parked, no airbag deployment! I drove the car for 8 years and sold it with no problems 👍
Sure helps to have a parts emporium. I put a new front clip on a '01 Silverado years ago, and I couldn't find anything in local yards, so I had to buy new. I bought it wrecked and still saved money, but used parts sure would have been nice.
Yep I’m a saddo I was sitting waiting for the yell coming off the trailer, watching an expert doing a top class rebuild and I’m waiting for a yell I need therapy, great post as usual Scott
jeez thats a pretty straight terrain. only needs a pillar pull and a set of doors.. nice
Thanks for the measurements Scott. Appreciated you showing that.
The unloading scream absolutely NEVER gets old.
I just finished watching Andrew Camarata and I saw your notification.
Good job Scott! The whole cast was here too, Pizza Girl, Roaming Gnome and Mr. Spotty taking a FedEx trip.
another sunday night relaxed viewing after arthur,thank you
Your videos keep feeding my desire to start on some easier rebuilds. Nice work I enjoy the snarkey engineering comments. It keeps me thinking at work to avoid annoying service issues.
Your sunroof explanation is spot on! I had a 86 Mustang with T-tops that leaked and I said I’d never own a car with glass in the roof again! Both vehicles I have now have sunroofs lol
I live in wv and a mechanic for 35 yrs you got lucky finding a clean one lol
Probably helped that it hardly ever left the garage. 😂
I enjoy his multi-purpose installation and removal "tools" that don't cost an "arm" and a "leg" 😀
I should have you fix my 13' Taurus. I'd enjoy watching my car get fix on your channel dude frfr
Pizza girl didn't make a very long appearance and no pizza. Maybe you should think about paying her (more) 😁 It always amazes me at how much plastic is in "modern" vehicles. Thanks for sharing.
Only came for the heavy lifting and then back to her pizza deliveries! 😂
That Scotts Terrain Emporium is so handy! Saves you lots of money, and hey it's close by as well! Win win!
I'm sure you will get some people who say "another Terrain???" I, on the other hand, find each of your Friday releases very interesting. Looking forward to the weeks to come. Peace from Maryland.
Glad to see you got the painting gnome to help. It's nice to know hes not a figment of your imagination.
The doctors told me the gnomes in my head aren’t real. Now I have proof! If I could just get out of the huggy jacket, and bouncy room, I could show them. 😜
@@vehcor it’s not for your safety… it’s for the safety of others…everyone knows gnomes don’t exist..there mistaken for dwarfs
Hi Scott, I look forward to your Friday releases. I started watching several months ago and was working my way backwards through older videos and decided to jump back to the “mistake”. At first I was a little disappointed because you had the fancy intro with music and you were much less snarky and there was no Pile! Or What’s in my console. But about episode nine of the Mistake I started seeing signs of the Vehcor I have come to appreciate. I can’t tell you how many times I just laugh out loud with some of your witty comments. I hope you have continued success with your business. You have a gift. Say hello to Mr Spotty for me.
The first video on the Mistake was my first with my new camera. I was just starting out basically. Thanks for the support.
Thanks again Scott. I sure look forward to the Friday video.
Always a pleasure to watch Scott.!!! Thanks for posting! Take good care.
Rich
Thank you for the great video, will look forward to the next one on this vehicle..
Gets me everytime with you screaming backing up lmao!!!
👍🏻😂
Somehow I don't think pizza is in your diet,thanks for another great video although was a little short on the sarcasm🤗😎🤗😎
You would be wrong, I don’t eat healthy at all. I I think my lack of will to make videos is starting to show. Thanks for the support.
@@vehcor well, there’s 177,000 of us around here who sure hope you don’t give it up. But yeah… some days my “give a damn” is busted too.
Fantastic.. sounds like the 2.4 well we all know about those motors. I always did like that body style.. had a 2011. Cannot wait for this one.. grabbing popcorn.. I can feel I need it. Stay safe and be well Scott. Thank you!
boy i,ll tell ya you make super quick work of taking apart that Denali, looks like it is a nice fix for you. Even better you have the parts on hand .
Another Danali!!! I like watching you build them because you are such an expert on that car I bet I could take off a random bolt and you could tell me where it goes.
Sunroofs are the best tho. I used to watch the towers over head thru the sunroof of my parents SUV.
I would love to own another car with a sunroof, but my old chevy truck doesnt have one lol
Fastest 28 mins.....video just started and it was over. Very interesting. This one will be another fine vehicle for someone.
Scott - I've seen you comment on other channels so if you haven't already, check out Andrew Camarata's channel. Specifically his latest video released today. Unique talented guy. There's nothing he won't or can't do. However.....auto body work may be a first. Body work by Yanmar.
I’ll have to check him out. Wes has mentioned him a few times. Thanks for the support.
Keep up the good work. You keep me entertained. Love the builds.
Thank you.
Good car to build,Score!!,Scotts Terrain Emporium!!!
I picked that poor little Terrain clean! 😂
When you said “Someone’s been here before” while in front of the doors I was only thought “Well yeah… with another car” then you mentioned the rockers.
Great video as usual Scott !!
Scott ... When you say "In the pile" when considering air bag cloth, it just isn't the same because there's no gratifying ching-a-ling as it actually hits the pile ... I mean, come on, man! :o)
Reference to a fave 1980's-1990's childrens' game! = o D
Different air bag modules store different amounts of deployment data. Same have enough space to save more than one so you can clear it. If it’s been cleared before it may not clear after the second accident.
vehcor i own a one oner 02 pontiac sunfire with 114,000 i love the builds keep them coming
Exactly what you said about the sunroofs is my dad's mentality minus an Oldsmobile
As always a great video to watch Scott.
Yet another great video, thanks Scott.
Screaming while backing off the trailer never gets old....lol
Based on the low mileage the candy and the seat position it was most likely a fatal crash! When you are so old in dash Nav freaks you out, Small fender benders cause Heart Attacks!
Who else besides me screams with Scott when he backs a vehicle off the trailer?! :D
Hey Scott… i hope Mr. Spotty is going somewhere warm on his vacation… also let’s hope he’s not claustrophobic….😁😁😁😁
I'm one of those that is old enough to remember the problems with sunroofs and moonroofs. If they don't leak, the drains plug up with debris so water freezes in them either breaking the drain tubes or disconnecting them leaving the owner with a wet floor or rusting quarter panels or both. Then there are the times that they get stuck or something in the mechanism fails. I would never buy a car with a hole in the roof.
nice built
Scott, I noticed the Iso-Pure whey protein canister. You may want to give Syntha-6 from BSN a try. It’s excellent!! Have a great day!!
That’s the pizza girls old brand.
love your attitude dude
Thanks
Very cool
Thanks for another great video 👍
Haha! The "Boomer package", I love it! Most people don't realize that sunroofs leak from the first day they get rained on or washed. That's why they put drain tubes on them. Amazing what 40 years of automotive innovation can accomplish. I'm with you Scott, I gotta have that sunroof. Had the factory one installed in my '06 2500 16years after it was built. totally worth the $1500.00 I paid.
I did have sun roof in my first car, but I never opened it, unless I was just trying it. Haven't spend any money on sunroofs ever since.
Awesome show.
You should do a throwback to the origination of the trailer scream for the new subscribers. Gotta be two years old by now.
Awsome as always! I love first class work. Thats the way i am. Great 👍
Yay, the cars are fighting back
Sounds good. Got a winner. 👍
mighty job
👍🏻
impressive work
22:30 in addition to the padding, I learned the seam sealer likes to catch fire also. I too,learned the hard way. But I had water near by, so no damage.
I know I know it’s a baby SUV but they sell really well,so I cannot dis on it.I’ll be on good behavior and keep my mouth shut.looks like a easy build.keep on keeping on.👍👍👍😎😎😎
Good gas mileage and low miles, it is an easy sale with $4.50/gallon and climbing!
@@vehcor Yeah, over US%6 per US gallon (converted from cents per litre) here in Australia and climbing.
Looks like the parts car has a hitch. You might want to take the time to move that over to the one you will fix, if it is still any good. I like having a trailer hitch.
10:44 And that's how we get a new pirate.
You are a great business runner , lol, looking for a car with a right side smash , doors only , is brilliant , to use what you already have..
my favorite scream never gets old
10:10 I use recycled cardboard for my shipping and usually raid various cardboard bins at the local furniture store. I'm eyeballing that box sitting on the floor hahah NOT driving to michigan for it tho!
V tuned ordered some body panels for a 1966 mustang and I was eyeballing the HUGE cardboard sheets that they came in....they would have supplied me for a month!
It's funny, the local junkyards I frequent have been buying this generation Equinox and Terrain like crazy lately. Maybe Scott's Terrain Emporium has driven up values? lol
good job
I hope pizza girl got the quarter and piece of candy you found as a TIP!
How can you put everything back together? You are a genius mister! Once again, a great video...
Nice “easy” build. Making the most of your fleet of carcasses is great. Need patience. How long to wait for just the right build that uses your inventory.
Your pizza girl must be related to my pizza girl. Lots of following and supervision :) Not saying I don't need it from time to time.
Scott's Terrain emporium seems much larger each and every bulld!
Man you missed the opportunity after the top bolt on seat belt came out. I said it for you........I win!
I'm pro-sunroof, even more so after I learned about cleaning the drains during routine maintenance.
its a game port for the kids to charge their toys while playing going down the road. LOL
Scott's GM emporium again? Lol
I like that place but the owner is a sarcastic jerk! 😂
Very good video 👍 👍 👍
1:00 That red Nissan on the left needs a new CVT. Or it will need one soon. Or maybe Scott has replaced it already this week.
The three stages of a Nissan CVT are:
Will need replacement.
Needs replacement.
Has been recently replaced.
Great Job!!! Thank You… :)
IT'S not low mileage enough.
But you will work your magic again 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇺🇸
Lower than anything around me for sale.
do like the faces you pull lol
Imagine if the work was actually hard. 😂
Love it
