Hi Lee, thanks again for the content. This is @maconthingshappen That Durango has an air bag suspension on the rear. You can repurpose or sell for a bit.
Was that an Xterra back by the old Durango? Those are kind of new classics now. That Durango was so rough, I can't help but wonder what it looked like before its last owner got it. :D
oh wow another clapped Durango never seen that before at least you don't have rust there $1,200 beaters in NJ that Buick is worth it's weight in gold these always sell fast up here as a good cheap daily ehhh they rust oh well everything rust up here in the North.
1 had 2 rams with a 5.9 in them i thought they were decent motors the 1997 2500 was a good truck ,i kick myself for getting rid of it ,dude i sold to still scraps metal init 5 years later
I know everyone a armchair mechanic on you tube but Chevy orange that baby ,an you ever watch uncle Tony garage,he actually said on these motors that sit for a while one thing people don't do is pull oil pan cause old old films in bottom and eventually it clogs journals oil pressure decrease,,,,etc etc,,he ain't no Lyon racing but he does have good channel
Watch the heads on that 360 they're known to Crack across the valves , I bought a 2003 model nine yrs ago ((had to replace the heads) been a solid vehicle every since . Cost 444 dollars 4 heads and gasket set , did work myself . That's a testimony of the frequency that they cracked often cause you sure won't buy Ford or Chevy heads rebuilt that cheap .
@@clunkersandclassics sounds like another durango or Dakota is going back on the road already, thank you for giving folks a chance to buy the parts and not just crushing them, scrappers around here bought all the used cheap non rusted cars up during covid mainly for the cats and so many got scrapped with no chance to buy parts. But to make things worse we don’t have pick and pull here, the yards pull the parts for you if they have it on a vehicle you need and not in the inventory, and if they have a car sitting and someone just buys one part, (like i did 2 years ago now for an oem ac delco blower motor because the aftermarket ones were just junk) they process it quickly as they had to go through the hassle of moving other cars to get to it, it hadn’t even been two weeks and i just wanted some miscellaneous screws and bolts, i was told they already processed the valuable usable parts and crushed the rest. If i had property i would do this too i’d be be too obsessed with trying to make a whole car or so if i had multiple of the same model or brand, it just sucks when theres too much rust or people have messed with wiring trying to add things upgrade audio or fix something unrelated then the dash is a Christmas tree and things don’t function, i’m all for replacing head units, adding subwoofers whatever but its gotta be installed right and if removed, removed right. I personally won’t cut factory wiring for radios if there’s an adapter/harness available which there almost always is. If I can’t afford the proper kits to keep the factory things like the dvd, onstar, steering wheel controls, I just leave it alone if it plays or if it doesn’t i get another factory radio. As long as it has an aux port preferably or dreadfully fm there’s always those portable car-play/android auto screens with the fm transmission capabilities built in or even a cheap fm tranmitter if you have no aux, i always find a way to make it work for me without butchering things lol
I have been a mechanic for 33 years and I have worked on a million of these Buicks and I have done 1 set of head gaskets on those 3800 and it is not the head gasket there were a problem on these it is the intake gaskets and the plastic water ports going in the side of the block on the passenger side they crack . But ilu have the complete wrong idea of a 3800 u can't kill them
The biggest problem those Buicks have is rust underneath. But you are in a warmer climate where they dont use the horrible salt to treat roads in the winter. 3800 is a very solid engine.
Part it out. Needs way too much work. You’ll get more than your money back. Dodges always had crappy interiors. Friend had a 74 and everything was plastic. Looked cheap.

Hey Lee. I used a center console from a 2000 Durango and put it in my nova. Fit perfect

Free visegrips!
Lee I buy those Dodge Durangos at the auction from year 1999 to 2006 from $1,000 to 1500 clean good running condition
Thanks Lee ❤🙏🏻👍
The Buick is a better candidate
Awesome!🎰🎰🎰
Buicks had all the bells and whistles and electrical problems. ..hope you make some money on them.
Check the door speakers may be aftermarket. Those wires look like it had a sound system in it.
Those Gm 3.8s also like to melt the EGR valve ports on the plastic intake manifolds.
Also the rear air tanks above the spare tire brace on the Durango. If you scrap it, get the air system off and sell it.❤
I just saw those tanks, are those stock? I wasn’t aware that Durangos had those.
That would make for some good scrap metal 👍
Good sheet metal donor for rust repair on other vehicles.
👍👍👍
Nice!

Xterra is junk
we are 36.00 a ton in British Columbia
you're getting hosed

both rust free but still junk

I stopped watching UTG when he put a slant 6 in a Miata. Complete waste of time and impractical.
I don’t think I would’ve given 500 for that Durango. Hope you can make some money on it.
oh I will. engine alone is 500
Keep up the good videos 👍
Thanks
i hate it when someone starts a job on a car and leaves .think the fenders are the plastic ones.shame its a fuzzy dice pimp mobile lol.peace...

Lee, stick to your guns -$300 per car (scrap value}
Does the town crack down on that many cars on property?
No Karens, No HOAs, Is this heaven, no it’s Oklahoma.
not in town. I called the county before I bought the property and they said anything goes, do what you want.
@@clunkersandclassics Sure wish I could do that around here......Northeast!
@@MikeyMack303 you can get away from the expensive houses were very packed in here in the north we had a 200 year head start to build things up.
That dodge was ridden hard and put up wet lol, some people don't deserve to own anything nice.
at this point there stereotypical $1,000 single mom mobiles with several manifold leaks rust holes and 4 tires that are all different brands.
As much as i love the first gen durango… someones messsed with the wiring, this one is too far gone, part her out to save the next.
just sold some front end parts today

Lee if you look closely you'll notice that while Buick does have a radiator it's in between the grill and the core support...
yeah, it's there

The 3800 is one of GMs best motors. I agree
It could probably live again. Who's to say about trans.
We have a few come through my shop with 250 to 300k on them and still going strong @@thomast596
my friend drove it and said water blows out the tailpipe and it used 3 gallons driving it home. He probably ruined it further doing that.

no rust on it
Part it out. Needs way too much work. You’ll get more than your money back. Dodges always had crappy interiors. Friend had a 74 and everything was plastic. Looked cheap.
it more than likely was designed to be cheap.
Make your money back selling those doors alone.
doors never sell around here for some reason
That dodge has a bad speed Sensor they always go out at 100000 and stop the mileage from recording
probably, it reads ' no bus' now
