- The Mopar craze has hit the shop hard. Carrington is elbow deep into the Dodge Demon rebuild. And, well, we keep having to buy more Dodge Hellcats to supply it parts. When you but a Dodge Demon that needs one of everything for a rebuild. Well, it takes a lot of Dodge Hellcats to replace all those parts.
This particular Dodge Hellcat was purchased on a very unique day for a great price. A great price that hinges on it actually running and driving. This Dodge Hellcat was purchased from insurance auction. You never know what you might get when buying a none running Dodge Hellcat from insurance auction. But, its time to find out!

Crazy that the price of the engine you have listed is basically what you paid for the entire car lol
Anyone else see the original upload of this with the title and the description in what looked to be Chinese???
Yes, im very confused. Also where tf is the demon bruv
Yea
@@lucarosette2248 Right? Been jonesing to see another Demon vid!
@@JeffHundo I was thinking I might have confused the algorithm to think I only spoke Chinese or it was a glitch lmao!
I was thinking the account was hacked
shoulda rebuilt this one honestly
bro it literally had structural damage it was literally not worth it
@@taylorebenguard6998 not hard to replace for that being a factory manual trust me I have reasons for my comments “memes from atl”
@@taylorebenguard6998 you don't have to say literally every sentence bro..wtf's wrong with this generation
@@BRAINFxck10 youre one to talk man dont be a hypocrite now
@@agomp the front end of the card had structural damage besides all the suspension damage although it certainly be fixed it’s not really worth it and they are a auto salvage company they make more money by parting out the car than fixing it if it was an older car i would totally agree it should be repaired
We're not rebuilding this one, but we're messing with that burned out shell? lol I get it. It's a Demon.
@T10EAF 💀
These scrap life stories are so unique to you guys & I really like them. Same for the auction reviews. I can watch anyone build a car, but I think it's those 2 things that make you stand out. Been binging for a while now.
Glad u are enjoying the content! Thanks for watching.
Should have rebuilt that car
They make more money this wise
And takes less time then rebuilding thats why😢
@@afnanimran3238 no IF THEY REBUILD THIS ONE THEY GET THE WHOLE 47k without mailing each part when they possibly sales
@@quezlee7946 you would think but most car like this are worth more in parts than whole. Even after shipping parts
While this car definitely deserved a second chance, I definitely understand that you can't just rebuild every Hellcat you get from insurance auction. The good thing is, those parts will go to other Hellcats to hopefully get them rebuilt!
Or v6 shells!
did i time travel, i watched this like yesterday?
ya but the description and title where Chinese.
@@jamesgumption5188 yeah ... maybe it was, what gives?
Ok I thought I was a little to high I seen it on my list and went back to watch it and it was gone....
Charles Barkley wasn’t lying about them big ol in San Antonio just left there last weekend😂😂😂
great video ,as always enjoy watching you guys ,looking forward to seeing the demon getting done
Love these videos! Been in the auto salvage business for 16 years and I’m glad you cover topics like dead inventory and the real cost of shipping 🙌🏻
what happened to the manual demon build ?
i would love to know the logistics behind how you decide to scrap a running car rather than repair it and sell it. i assume it's mostly because it just makes more money parting it out?
I'm confused, I've seen you guys fix cars in far worse shape than this. This seems like a fairly each fix and yet you scrapped it. I get the value in parts is likely better but this seems like quick cash in a fixed car. Can you explain the reason why you went this route?
Same question I have…
There’s much more profit in selling parts Vs repairing and selling a salvaged car
@@seropserop there is but at the expense of holding inventory. Often it is worth taking less money but have a quick turn around which was what my question was about.
In Loving Memory of a Car that deserved a Second Chance 🙏
who cares ain’t nothing special about it
@@taylorebenguard6998 lmao still could have been fixed up
@@taylorebenguard6998 - Keep saying that when your FORCED to drive your Prius because there are none left, f'ktard!!
you should have bought it then.
@@Tanner731 - Yea, well, I bought y'r mom, what a lousy deal!!
Barkley called San Antonio women big because of the food. Always interesting to see these videos. Ever do an update on previous teardowns? Thanks!
Great video guys, can’t wait to see another update on the Demon
Sale me this pen!!! 😂😂😂
The 6 piston caliper Brembos must not be doing a good job stopping those cars. You see more and more in Copart.
You posted this vid a couple days ago 😂
incredible, how you took this car apart yourself. Amazing my friend.
i thought too when you first started it up it was rough but sounded better after it warmed up. glad it's heathly motor plus it's a standard there's a plus. got a feeling it's gonna make some good money.
@1:00 thanks for the advice 😂❤
Tim here,,,from San Antonio, he’s said they some BIG WOMEN IN SAN ANTONIO.. FACTS😂😂😂😂
Need update on demon😈😈😈😈
You are wrong my friend you can go from four-piston to 6-piston they both ride on the only difference is you need a new brake line the only time you need to change the hub is if you go the dual piston to a 4 or 6 then you have to change the hub knuckles etc but going from 4 to 6 it's a direct bolt on all you change the brake lines and I have that number for anybody needs it
Wow. The best video you have made. I’m glad you got such a good deal on the car. Such a good deal I didn’t see a juke in the video 😂.
Mans gonna buy 17 cars to make one good one.
🤣
Why did I come from tiktok thinking you weee going to rebuild it. Came to the comments and saw RIP to the car😂
I would have liked it better for the car to have been repaired. I know your show is Scrap Life
Someone would have bought it once rebuilt. Space is limited on an island is what your reply could be. Best of luck in your business.
This is a different scene. Here your actually working. Not putting it together but taken it apart. That is still working instead of just flapping your gums like most channels.
“These pens are defective” - Meatloaf
Why not fix it? The damage wasn’t that bad, This could’ve been a easy flip.
Scat narrowbody with dynamic package also comes with 6 piston. Basically the old SRT8 spec car
Yes,when ordering my 17 scat pack I ordered the dynamic package.
Rich rebuilds will probably buy those seats to replace the poopoo ones on his hellcat 😂😂😂😂 @RichRebuilds
My mom has a gray widebody demon and I did not know it was a four piston caliber
I couldn't watch yall scrapping it for parts! Yall are brutal! Looked to me like it was worth at least attempting to repair first!
There's good value in the front and back glass as well.
You are loved my fellow brothers ♥♥
Greetings from Istanbul 👋
It hurts me to see these getting scraped knowing they won't be making them anymore but I understand why u guys do it but still it hurts a little lol
Man, I want to merge this with my 2001 dodge van,,,, including the scoops off that hood,,,, unfortunately,,,, no shop around me would even consider this type of work. I’m on the DAJIBAN circuit
You forgot dalts overtime charge for working a Sunday evening, 2.5 x standard rate. And his commission on profit margin.
Bro sounds like mayor Quimby from Simpsons 👀
Why didn’t they rebuild this thing?? It was drivable!
lol guys have any WS6 exterior parts laying around or for sale?
10% is so light on fees. eBay charges about 14% which doesn't including shipping ect.
wish u woulda showed us why its totaled .. from our view it didnt look 2 bad even after u pulled engine....u might be able to sell that body it was so good or 3/4 of it
Anyone know how much it would cost for fees and everything after buying a street bike off of copart the facility is less than 10 miles from my house so would I cost less if I go pick it up?
I like this style Content
what do you guys do with the modules anybting that’s vin locked like eps etc
1le does have 6 piston brembos
just curious what do yall do with the freon i don't see a ac machine? Do you have a secret or tip? i always run into that issue parting out a car how do you remove it without an ac machine?
I like when the car starts the closed captions say MUSIC
Gotta add in what ever the cats scrap for..
Meu sonho é comprar um Dodge desse mas aqui no Brasil é impossível 😢
Lol havent thought that it was that. Damage
I can get a 2016 Cadillac CTS 4cyl turbo 173k minor front end damage. I can get it for a good price. $2k runs and drives. Would this be worth it to part out?
Easy repair no?????😔
Knowing how to totally dismantle a car down to the shell is insane
What happens to the rest of the car? I've seen you load those things on flatbeds and haul them away. Is there another buyer who cuts them up to sell roofs or quarters?
They go to the scrapyard to be ground up and recycled.
Scrap life, how do I buy from you? Can you supply a link please
Big question how would I get in touch with you about swapping v6charger to hellcat I have owned it for 7 years and it’s in perfect condition 2016
The demon looks good 😂👍🏽
Love the channel
Wish you’d just list the purchase price on each car up front in the title..
Is this the 2nd time this video was uploaded? I already saw it 2 days ago, I think.
do you guys have an spare sub frames you were planning on throwing out, all scrap yards around me all have damaged ones and the dealers want an arm and a leg
ESTAN BIEN LOCOS
Would you guys be interested in a 1993 camaro with a lot of aftermarket performance parts? The body is straight no accidents, Moser rear with 4.10 rear, 6 speed is leaking from the slave cylinder, borg Warner 6 speed, motor is healthy, many performance. Suspension mods. 18 inch wheels ,willwood brake system, 6 piston front ,4 piston rears.
I can tell you that these guys wouldn’t be interested because, unless you sell it to them at an amount that they can at least double their money, they don’t have my interest in that generation of Camaro. Besides, they’re in the scrap business. The only assign so much value to aftermarket parts, especially old ones… and 93-97 Camaro Z28s can be bought for about $5k in really good shape.
Honestly I had to stop watching because I thought it was getting fixed with what little damage it had but instead was gutted into a million pieces. Quite frankly disappointed with the route y’all took with it, also sorry but that’s my opinion. I just hate to see something like that never to hit the road again 😢
He got the pricing wrong, he deducted auction fees as a 10% fee off the theoretical parts sales price of 4k when it should have been 1.7k
What’s going on with the Demon?
I need those seats?
I would NEVER buy a used Hellcat because you know whom ever had it drove the piss out of it and gave those cylinders pure hell. I would have to pull the motor and completely rebuild and bore the block just so I could sleep knowing that engine is good to go. Also there's thousands of people that have absolutely no clue on how to properly break an engine in
They are going to make double the price when they sell it parts only.
top notch as always
Awesome video
ebay fees?
Price on engine
What’s up with the viper swap ?
how come you guys add on the shipping costs? dont your customers pay these charges? or do you do free shipping on your parts?
You and that hammer seem to be good friends, from California
Can I have that exhaust off of that hell cat or buy it from u need it for my 08 jeep
Any more upgrades on the Juke? Lol
Would you be willing to sell the active exhaust modules?
dude this video was a month ago
Didn't know a scatpack/392 was a basic car....lol😂
How about a Hellcat-powered Porsche? I know you guys can do it.
This was posted yesterday or day b4 in a different language or something like that.
Importem para paises que esse veiculo nao foi vendido em grande quantidade como o Brasil
🔥🔥🔥🔥
where is the demon 😫
how was that toatled out? sometimes i feel like they don’t even look at the cars
Suspension costs a lot to replace (crashed my mustang) If they have to wait weeks, months for parts to ship in and then spend time laboring to fix it it would be a huge time and money sink.
How do you get your selling fees down to 10%
Smh you coulda just put a bumper and side fender walls on it and called it a day
all the fools doing donuts in the intersection running over there friends definitely need all these parts over the weekend's
I’d freaking wash it , fix the front suspension,and driv it as is , lol,,make a great track car..
Hi cool video. Stop throwing away spare parts, put autographs on them and give them to subscribers for pickup, thereby creating a flow of tourists and spectators to your workshop. then they turn into buyers.
Lets hellcat swap my frontier lol
650 BMW coupe or convertible.
