#Copart #SRX #Salvage
This was a great series. Light damage, that basically any average Joe is able to do.
I enjoyed watching this rebuild. It turned out very nice..👍
You've done good. Informative. Thankyou
I know that Escalades headlights run about $1,000 each used.
I think parts of the SRX were around $1000 and its probably getting sold at $5000.
I have discovered that radios CAN be a pain when others have toyed with them! Love the series. You make me want to try this!!
catfisher420 Thanks!!
I AM 83 YEARS OLD AND YOU REMIND ME OF ME, WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE. I DID THAT SAME THING YEARS AGO..KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. I STILL DO IT, JUST DON'T WORK ON THEM. JIM CLARK
When I heard that door chime I was so excited because I’m sure you know GM has always weird their door chimes through the speakers so once I heard the chime I was excited because that met you fixed the problem!
I'll never understand why they use the speakers/radio for it...
Why doesn't weird beard do a video when he gets the auto on his lot. He doesn't follow thru. Don't care to see his unwrapping of boats.
Because he is wierd and beard. *Mic drop*
Weird Beard runs a car lot and has a 9-5 job also. Whatever we get from him is a bonus. TH-cam is not the main income source like it is for Randy. He only has TH-cam I think by popular demand of Randy's viewers.
Mind clarifying what you mean by that?
@@sasandabirian8768 i was just about to comment that lol. He lives up to his name. Weired beard..
Good job Randy, persistence pays off. Glad to see it work out. To me, videos getting better and better. 1000 invested total
The shape that it's in you could easily get 4500 to 5000 off it and that's with the 3rd row seats... I'm guess you have about 12 to 1300 bucks all together in it
+SurviventheOnslaught I actually made a profit on the black one
Congrats on the black one Randy👍
@@AutoAuctionRebuilds Why Was Tim Wearing That Black Thing To Protect His Jeans in the Windstar Video?
Randy you lack of reaction when you get the job done really surprises me. I'm not saying to overreact like Tavarish but...
Why don't you buy you a car to rebuild for your personal use from copart. Something nice 4wheel drive or all wheel drive. We would love to come along for that rebuild project lol.
*Small estimate from me of what I think you have invested in the SRX;*
- Left fender: $100
- Front bumper cover: $175
- Fog lights: $30
- Hood hinge: $30
- Inner fender liner: $10
- Stereo with trim (on black Friday with discount): $40
- Amplifier: $30
- Butt connectors: $4
- Pigtails: $25
- Some cleaning, shampoo, and other material: $20
Parts investment: $464
Car price with fee's: $265
Total investment: ($465 + $265) = $729
Estimated value: $4000
Profit: ($4000 - $729) = $3271
_That's a decent profit mate!_
Weldone! Wen are you going to do a Classic Car from Copart?! Like an '80s Chevrolet Cavalier?
Like if you argee on my estimate and if you wanna see a classic car!
Jessica is probably mad that you sent the SRX away, also what ever happened to the green chevy you got back from the impound? I remember you working on it, then it disappeared..
Well, did like this "small" rebuild
It's all about the search.
It's easy to buy new parts...
Like this content more than others... Keep up the good work..
Like the DIY way and tips... 👌
Don't have this here in belgian...
The most junkyards are gone, because of environment issues...
You can find parts in specialized shops.... The magic of walkarounds... Are sadly gone here.... Should I move?? 😉
I reckon 1200 in it but will sell for 4000
This series on the SRX really got my attention, and I enjoyed every installment on it's road to sale. Your perseverance really impressed me as well. Enjoy any rewards you reap on this one, for sure!
I’m sorry I am late and that I don’t comment on videos a lot but you do a great job on them keep up the great content
Am I the only one who loves tan interiors or any color but black?
$1,000.00 all in. Should get $3,000 to $3,300.
I'm a start off with awesome job I love the SRX and CTS. Secondly I think total price is around 500 and selling it for 3500 profit of 3000
Your videos are very enjoyable Randy. I find them interesting and informative. Your choice in vehicles is great. You haven't bored me yet. Keep up the good work. I like the Cadillacs.
I guess that you have about $1,100 invested and figure it will sell for about $2,700. The high mileage is the only thing holding it back from bringing $3,000 to $4,000.
Good job. Been following your progress with the Caddie. I love low voltage wire splicing, and repair. Please do me a favour? Stop throwing your tools around ! Lol. It truly hurts my heart. Prime example the Heat gun. Looking forward to the next project.
Quick question, do you solder the wires before you shrink the butt connectors?
I’m looking forward to the Range Rover.
That's a nice car and you guys did some good work on it. It will sell fast.
I gotta say I love this series of the Cadillac it reminds me of the time when I rebuilt my 2005 Dodge Neon.
I was watching the gold SRX rebuild and had just put the salvage radio. Idk about OKC but my families dealer in ST Louis and my dealer in Upstate NY where I am just required the Vin number from the salvage car. I explained that I just wanted to upgrade my base cd with a cd cassette combo and they did it. Ny dealer wanted 100 but I was in st louis and Chevy did it for 140
Thank you for taking us along for the ride with the SRX project. Congrats on getting it finished. Great job.
Nice series. These Caddies may be old now but still look good and turn heads. Must admit I prefer them in presidential motorcade black to Jewish racing gold but the new grille smartened her up no end. Radios can be a pain, especially when there are hidden amps and the like to contend with and add complexity. I'd imagine the newer touchscreen / hard drive based ones are even worse. That's another reason I prefer to mess around with 40 year old Volvos, everything's analog and there's maybe five or six wires to the tape player :)
Randy you were look for an amplifier for the gold SRX not the black one as you mentioned at the scrap yard.
Great series man.
Thumbs up all the way from South Africa
Randy hate when people butcher the factory harnesses. Profit, Profit $$$$ nice job 🙌😁
by the way the 2 cars you are renting through TORO, the cruze and prius, are a waste of your time, are a risk, liability, and I think you should stop doing it. unless you want to be in the car renting business. I think it isn't your focus as a business.
In most GM products can have different plugs but the wires are the same colors for the same options the first amp more than likely would have work but hell finding the exact one always works.
Why didn't you just plug the amp in before completely re-wiring it, surely that's a better idea before spending 2 hours replacing it??
Hey Randy don't sell it sooooo cheap...thats a really nice car and you fixed it to OEM....it's as clean as a whistle and the person that sees it will appreciate how clean it is!! Well Done and Good Luck!!
I'm sure the parts cost more than you gave for the srx so I'm gonna same around $1100 with out the labor and parts chasing and parts delivery from Dallas lol.
I would of simply un-attached wiring harnesses from both ends instead of clipping...then no need to splice but your SRX did turn out nice
$900 Headlight... well...the Cadillac has lights like that but I'm gonna say...a high end Mercedes. SL500 ?
Still get big building pulling the billion to a body shop and then you can work on cars you can find two cars garage or another place where you can fix cars at you're going to get in trouble for fixing them at your house
Well done mate, a bit of work on that one, but that's where the $$ are made - doing the stuff no one else will to get the sale no one else can. Keep powering and thanks again for the great content. Cheers from Australia.
I'm another one guessing tnat you have about $1K in it. Selling it at Mike's lot may only get you $3.5K.
Why didn't you just take the amp and a wires from the black SRX that you own and put them on to the gold SRX
I think I know what car you will rebuild next. The Audi S7 TDI. Am I wrong? Tell me!
why do you cut the wires ,when all you have to do is unplug them , if its an exact match it will plug in . a lot of yards dont want you to cut the harness as that is a sellable part . you destroy parts others may need .
Why would anyone cut and splice all the wires to A PLUG AN PLAY unit! Silly
I had a 2010 caddy srx4 I had problems with the all wheel drive system it was to money to repair I got rid of it
You should have kept it since the Cruze is at retirement age now & wrecked. The Cadillac on Turo would be a better income stream for you or better yet heck a winter car for you.
SRX Series was a click magnet for me! Loved it!
Your big risk was labor instead of dollars, which is what you should pursue. = Big rewards =
This is much better content then in the past so keep it up also I believe you have 1300 in it and will sell around 4500
$787 invested plus donated stuff and labor. Should sell for about $3,450.
Did you wind up selling the black srx for junk or what happened to that one?
Total investment: $950 selling price: $3,000-$3,500
I'm thinking about 1100-1200 in it and sell for around 3800-4000. Good series of videos on it btw.
I think you spent 400usd on top of the cabinet cost. You should sell it for 4k
Your welcome Randy~
for as cheap as you got it and what little had to go into it Id say you make 2k profit easy.
Enjoyed SRX series. Look forward to more content.
Question how do go about getting in to bidding on those cars and if so can you get a cargo van
Oh, God. You bought a Jag! Ugh!
Randy I think you have around 600 it will sell for 3500
I know what it is it's a silver ghost and that'll fit your personality cuz you're the Cadillac Man good video
I say you put 400.00 worth of parts into this one and sold it for 4000.00
Nice job on the amp - those vintage GMs have two types of Bose amps - a regular Bose amp that you saw in those two SRXs you took apart, and then there's a "Lux" amp which I believe is the one your SRX had (the bigger of the two). I believe the latter is fed by a databus signal for volume, has some digital signal processing modes, and more power. It's a shame the prior owner hacked the wiring. Always check your RPO codes on the GMs in the glovebox before diving in.
it also helps to jot down the part number of your original part; it may have been used in other vehicles.
How did the connectors end up cut from the wiring harness?
$1,267.22 invested
$3,999.99 Retailed
1000 invested, will sell 4250.
3250 profit
Great series! I am thinking you in it about around $2500 not including your initial cost from copart.
Congratulations now you should probably keep it.
I like the video. These repairs can be completed by the average person who works a regular job during the week. Getting help from a buddy is priceless!
Nice.... how much did you end up selling it for?
so what did it sell for? What was your total investment?
That's a winner man , count your blessings !
Very good video. Very interesting. Thank you.
I was hoping you were gonna keep it. You should definitely get anywhere from $2500 to $3000 for it easy.
Nice job dude.........
Now make some cash.............
Bro your videos are cool to watch. Keep up the good work that you are doing cheers.
When you gonna get 100k trophy from TH-cam?
"I don't want to get a copyright strike" lol not that you can even understand anything that song was saying
Jimmy JimJims you could play up to 30 seconds, before you get into trouble.
I like that Cadillac would like to find one...
You should LS swap the black caddy
SEO Magic, I just noticed this video was uploaded only 6.552 hours ago and already racked up more than 190 comments and 9000 views. Keep doing what you do because it is working.
Not including the parts you bought that either didn't work or wasn't needed, I am going to say you put $1500 into it which includes the price that you paid for the vehicle itself.
The price of the used headlight quoted kinda reminds me my 05 BMW 645 I got from Copart. Got it in the playlist. Thankfully mine were in pristine condition :)
$1500 in it, sell for $3000 maybe $3500
😅Saludos desde mexicali B. C México
Why does Weird Beard not have a website?
you got 800 you spent on it and get about 4000
Maybe around 900 - 1000 spent fixing ?? Sell for maybe around 4 - 5k??
Idk im just guessing
Please post for how much it sold.
An easy rebuild is a GOOD rebuild
Nice to see you got the radio working. Your persistence paid off, something I like to see. I think you got lucky, but what would life be without some luck along the way. I know I like getting lucky here and there. I hope you don't get mad at me for bringing this up but I found a really good video on replacing the timing belt on the CTS. done by Nthefastlane. Very well done except for one thing. The antifreeze looked really rusty to me when he replaced the water pump and just said to refill with antifreeze and nothing about flushing out the system especially when he went to the lengths to replace the cam and crank seals. Who knows maybe he did eventually, just didn't mention it in the video. Only drawback was a $200 tool he used to hold and align the cams and crank to properly install the belt. He has listings of all the parts and tools he used. I'm not judging you on how you go about your business in any way. That's something you have to deal with. Never know what you'll find when taking something apart, lol. He did mention being careful with all the plastic stuff GM uses. Just sending you some info on the research I find. Ironically it makes me feel better passing on some tips that might help. Seems like you get a some feed back about not doing enough 'rebuilding', lol. Best wishes, Randy and thanks for sharing. Kevin
how much price you sole cardelic?
Really enjoyed this rebuild. More please!
2250 into it 8450 selling price
You are so much lucky on that suv.
that was a fun small series
1400 invested sell for 3700
