While in Middle School, I worked on our neighbors chicken farm. Hand gathering eggs. 250 eggs to a basket. Saved my money. Freshman year of High School. I took a small engine repair course. Then, I started my own small engine repair business in my Grandpas tractor barn. Before long, I had all the business in our country farm community to service and rebuild/repair every ones small farm engines. As I gained knowledge, I became fluent with larger equipment engines, i.e. large tractors etal. After graduating High School, I had enough money to buy a 1965 Chevy Malibu Chevelle. SWEET CAR.. Sold it and bought my 1st Porsche !! I've been driving Porsches for 50 years now.. Be good at what you do and if you stick to it, it will pay off.. My life has been SO BLESSED !! I am truly Thankful !! Carry on Craig, you're doing great Bro..
Life as a car flipper. We need a van to move our stuff, now we could rent one or better yet buy one use it and flip it in the end and make a couple of bucks! Cheers Craig, keeper coming my man.
Im writing this comment sitting in my own Dodge Promaster 2500 (camper van). I think that was a pretty fair price for that one on both ends. The 2021+ are more desirable with the updated chassis and with the miles, questionable sliding door, and history of it being an Amazon delivery vehicle, the price was reasonable.
What happen to the company emblems on the building? Are they gone or am I tripping and they were they never there to begin with? It looks like you are leaving the lot as well
Craig you are a great businessman, great husband/provider and great dad!! Always working. Always in good mood, great content and great selection of new creative things like new house build, buying van etc to expand content..makes content very entertaining and enjoyable!! Thx.
@@FlyingWheels Sorry to hear that Craig. I hope all is well with German personally and wish him the best. I always thought you guys made a great team together from what I saw. Either way I will still be watching as usual. Been subbed to you since you were around the 25-30k mark.
@@FlyingWheels are you looking for anybody new? I definitely need to be taught a thing or two but I am 19 years old, own an acura and a mustang & work with town fair tire at the moment with schooling from Manchester School of Technology for automotive & autobody, I’d be happy to travel to Danville from Derry Nh to work with you!
@@FlyingWheels Oh no. I'm sorry to hear the news confirmed. We are in the middle of another HOT Texas summer and I just quit even trying to hire anyone. Jeff and I are just doing it all as a two man crew. I literally don't even want to waste time hiring, training and such when most of the people won't be able to hang with us for even a week. Same deal as last year summer too. I hope your results vary up in NH.
Remember to disconnect battery as these drain in all promaster 10 to 15 days after being shut dowm, and by the way 2,200 Promasters get built per week in México
Hey Craig, I’m old school liking your channel. I started fixing & flipping bikes in the late 80s and 90s as a kid and today I’m a dealer too. So when you start talking bmx my ears prick up! Thanks for all the awesome content mate. 🇦🇺🦘Regards, Dan.
Great move with the van! Keep the money moving. Moving is everything. Holding out for top dollar = lost time. In that time, you can be on flip 2, 3, or even 4.
Daaang I haven’t seen a dyno bike since I was a kid in the 90’s!! That’s so cool that you’re teaching your kids about how you can turn old things into cool awesome things. Back then we use to look for the best parts for dynos to n order to wrench on the bikes and install the parts ourselves! Great content!
I had a van for my work just like that one …loved it , last week a lady ran into it and it’s now written off…. I am gutted. They are great vehicles… love the content
@@FlyingWheels LOL love the family friendly humor. Glad to see you growing and getting some big sponsors, congrats on the success Craig, more motorcycle content!!!! Used bikes are stupid expensive right now, I'm sure you could flip those for a ton of profit too. Have some true flying wheels haha
All the new style cargo vans are epic compared to the previous gen. You can actually get 4 x 8 sheets of plywood etc into them and have a usable volume like a cube van. This is why many people are turning them into campers. I had a mercedes conversion come into the building I rented my shop at. One of the other tenants was a trailer sales/rental repair guy. OMG it was incredible.....
Fun to love something so ugly from time to time 😀 I always loved our old minivans when they were a thing… glad you enjoyed it… I see where it would be quite handy.
Craig you should really shop for a Ferrari and buy it with the business, just like the Aston Martin. If it comes out to 75k, then keep on flipping until you reach 75k and buy it using the business. It might take a while to get a Ferrari at the right price and color, and it might make this series much longer. Red is much better than other colors. Been watching this since the 2nd episode came out.
Action packed video 👊🏼I did the same with bikes 🚲 I was 13 remember all the awesome bikes back then. I had the GT performer baby blue with white mags and white tires.Had many bikes I fixed up and sold. I did it with my first car and doubled my money. I did it with my first house. I had an extra piece of land next door. I redid the house sold it built my new house next door with the profit.Excellent video Craig 👊🏼
How do you know what to buy when looking to flip a car. Is it just years of experience and knowing what is popular currently. Can you make a video of your thought process. Tia
26k miles on that van? Didn’t Amazon get caught swapping out odometers on buyers? Did you check the other modules to make sure that was actual mileage ?
Ugh that dyno is a sweet bike!!! Super rare and hard to find these days. I still have a 1995 redline rl340 and a 1993 gt performer. That bike is worth way more than $150-200 don't sell it that cheap!!
I agree it’s worth more probably 500 minimum. Just built a Dyno Compe for my son and a midschool Haro twin tube. These bikes are definitely getting more rare.
Vans are a hot commodity these days new ones are virtually impossible to find and used ones are going at a premium price you definitely left money on the table. But a greater than $3000 profit with minimal aggravation was definitely the right business choice to make.
I would hope to see about 3 or 4 more flips before you get a Ferrari it's been an awesome journey watching you since the first ferrar flip episode came out sad to see its conclusion
Isn't that a cool bike? Check into getting one of the new 24" "cruisers" for yourself. They are just BMX bikes streched out a bit for us big kids. Haro has been making the backtrail X24 for years. They just change up the colors. Solid bike to ride, jump and make you feel like you are 12 years old again.
My son has a handyman business and on his fourth van that I did the finding. Good vans with low miles are rare and hard to find but I would have taken the offer to. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
take the money ive done it a bunch of times , bought something used it for a week then sold it and dont have to worry about finding someone with that kinda money later on
I enjoy your videos, I do Advertising for car dealers including every AutoNation dealership. I have watched your latest video and things will get worse before they get better. Stay strong !
Great series Craig! Find the ferrari that speaks to your senses. Get into a local ferrari club. That would be the one to flip to. You dont just buy a ferrari you invest in that brand as a lifestyle. You might have a few flips left.
You definitely should wait for a better quality Ferrari! Once this series is over you should totally do the same for another toy like a boat or a cheaper car like Camaro or mustang!
That’s a great van for moving. I’m not sure if it’s worth 30k though. Amazon drives them into the ground. But hey, if you’re happy, that’s what counts.
You don’t have to ask for 👍 always like your videos they are really good. You still have the C6 zo6 have been looking for one thanks maybe you read this one
I don't think I have ever seen an Amazon delivery vans that does not have dents, especially along the door panels. No surprise the door was repaired/swapped.
Careful with that van Craig, my sister is a deliverer for Amazon and she's done nothing her entire career than REALLY complain about those vans and transmission problems she said there's been a few that at less than 15k miles go out and said even past that she NEVER has her van because it is always in for work
If you're gonna do it you may as well do it right and wait to purchase a CPO or new Ferrari. Odds are in your range right now you're looking at clapped out Ferrari 360's or F355's which are maintenance pigs and well maintained models will throw an extra 50k on top of that budget. Oh and btw, you got off lucky with that van sale, there's tons of companies purchasing those through auctions right now to flip them retail to people who want to live in a van.
I can't wait to see you get that Ferrari! You should get one with the same color from the movie Wolf on Wall Street😄😄 That'll turn some heads. Keep pushing brother!
Seems extremely low miles for an Amazon van I know someone here in the UK who does 50k miles a year in his and we are no where near the size of America.
I’d also take it. I mean hell you’re making almost 5k and got to use it to Move everything and travel in it, it’s a win win across the board. Imagine having to rent a van for all that...
I like this channel I work at a dealership currently interested in your learn how to start a dealership I currently flip cars on the side hey Prixx give me a deal on the cost of that class money is real tight right now
Because they only review objects they love They dont review things they didnt like Its common sense, out of 10 items a sponsor gives them a channel might only review 1 or 2
How many guys post a video of them backing into a Cadillac? You might be the most honest used car dealer EVER. Hi from Candia, after another Raymond Walmart delivery. Thumbs up, Craig!
You always mention your car business but forget to mention your dad and grandpa where car dealers. I'm sure they helped you out a lot so make sure to give them credit.
@Flying wheels you should make a video on why german quit/cool montage of clips of memories a lot of people including myself loved to see him in videos and he will be missed
I kinda don't want to see this series end it's been so fun. Are you going to start another one, maybe a McLaren flip series?
It needs to end been dragging it out too long. He can start another one and he wouldnt lose followers
I’d take the deal as well, $4360 a week is a win in my books!
Craig so great that you and your boys fixed that bike up together. And you have done something positive for the environment.

I just discovered your channel not too long ago and I want to say it’s awesome, keep up the good work man.

i love what you’re doing with you’re boys, you’re a great father.
Great dad score....11 out of 10. Love seeing good parents in action.
Did German leave Flying Wheels? Someone mentioned it the past 2 videos. Just curious if it’s true. He was great in the videos.
German saldy quit

Helix is a great product and great sponsor...great to give you a mattress! Great video!
Just found a Ferrari on marketplace for exactly 65k in Texas. Just sent you the link via your website.
I used to have a Dyno in JR high in 95..brings back memories..congrats on the house

💀😂😭
Erky erky
Must have been painful to sell the van when you got such a good deal on it. I move furniture regularly and that Ram model is just about perfect
All the new style cargo vans are epic compared to the previous gen. You can actually get 4 x 8 sheets of plywood etc into them and have a usable volume like a cube van. This is why many people are turning them into campers. I had a mercedes conversion come into the building I rented my shop at. One of the other tenants was a trailer sales/rental repair guy.
OMG it was incredible.....

Big love from Portugal mate
Have a good one 🤙
Fun to love something so ugly from time to time 😀 I always loved our old minivans when they were a thing… glad you enjoyed it… I see where it would be quite handy.
Ditch the chain guard on the Dyno

I had a Hutch Pro Racer bike. I kept it in fantastic shape but I was forced to get rid of it. :(

@10:36 and now we know why there are soooo many bikes in his garage suffocating the C8!
Loving the videos Craig..keep up the fantastic work!!
I belive you have some stow aways in the back @ 4:19
How do you know what to buy when looking to flip a car. Is it just years of experience and knowing what is popular currently. Can you make a video of your thought process. Tia
Fast money is good money, don’t let perfect be the enemy of good 👌🏼
26k miles on that van? Didn’t Amazon get caught swapping out odometers on buyers? Did you check the other modules to make sure that was actual mileage ?
That was fed ex selling their 15-20 year old pos trucks
Craig that's a nice Van mate. Nice profit. Congrats on getting the house all sorted out. You deserve some good luck buddy. Keep Smiling 😃
Ugh that dyno is a sweet bike!!! Super rare and hard to find these days. I still have a 1995 redline rl340 and a 1993 gt performer.

FYI the Ram Van is a European design. Here in Europe it is sold as the Fiat Ducato (Fiat and Ram are brands of the Stellantis Group)
I would hope to see about 3 or 4 more flips before you get a Ferrari it's been an awesome journey watching you since the first ferrar flip episode came out sad to see its conclusion
That dyno is sick. It brings me back

great van....curiosity question: have you hooked up a scan tool to see the REAL mileage?

Great series Craig! Find the ferrari that speaks to your senses. Get into a local ferrari club. That would be the one to flip to. You dont just buy a ferrari you invest in that brand as a lifestyle. You might have a few flips left.
Parenting done right with that bmx👏👏
You Rock Mr. Sales Dude!
What makes it an Amazon van? It looks like they don’t sell the vans, from what I was looking at.
@Tennis they do sell them i have seen atleast 75 for sell at auction most are new vans
Loving the videos reflecting the change in market. Keep it coming
You definitely should wait for a better quality Ferrari! Once this series is over you should totally do the same for another toy like a boat or a cheaper car like Camaro or mustang!
Loving the series keep it up
12:23 great job HOMIES lmfao 🤣😂🤨
Can't wait for what's coming.
That’s a great van for moving. I’m not sure if it’s worth 30k though. Amazon drives them into the ground. But hey, if you’re happy, that’s what counts.
It's a 2020 with 26k on it's basically new
You don’t have to ask for 👍 always like your videos they are really good. You still have the C6 zo6 have been looking for one thanks maybe you read this one

Ferrari is usually red
I would of done some crazy shit back in the day for a gt dyno
Seems extremely low miles for an Amazon van I know someone here in the UK who does 50k miles a year in his and we are no where near the size of America.
You're having a great week! Cool!!
15% profit after you used it for moving is a good return.
I’d also take it. I mean hell you’re making almost 5k and got to use it to

Has ANY TH-camr that got paid to review an item, Not Loved It. Its in the Contract right?
Because they only review objects they love
They dont review things they didnt like
Its common sense, out of 10 items a sponsor gives them a channel might only review 1 or 2

The cheapest “anything” I-talian is the most expensive car you’ll ever own. LoL
Pougeot/Citroën/fiat in Europe. Funny to see that model in the usa
Any corvettes kicking around 🙂
It’s a nice looking van, the guy is getting a great deal
Take it and run!!! $ always take the moeny
If it’s ok with him we need a German update.. really liked him
What happened to German?
@@stevestreet2825 Craig commented he quit
You always mention your car business but forget to mention your dad and grandpa where car dealers. I'm sure they helped you out a lot so make sure to give them credit.
I think a barndominium would have been better and cheaper!
Take it
awesome
Part of me would like this series not to end... very entertaining. Even if the ferrari is purchased...
I feel better knowing I’m not the only dumby to back a truck into another car on my lot lol😅
Laconia Bike week was a good place to stay away from back in the 70's and 80's. I believe they even had some shootings once or twice.
I would like to see you do a Lamborghini flip series
It had a full tank of fuel??? Well that's 1 grand right there...
