I had no clue what I was doing when I bought my first Salvage Project, a 2015 Ford Fiesta ST with only 8k miles. I was able to rebuild this car and it cost me less than half of what a used retail example was selling for.

Do you guys like the Fiesta ST? I think the only thing I would trade it for is a Focus RS…
I'm turning 15. In Texas that's when you drive and this is the car I'm getting!🤗
Does the state licensing depend on where you physically are or where the car is? For example if you are in GA but buying a car in FL do you need a broker or still not because the vehicle would be going to GA in the example?
Hi Sam, my bmw 125i f20 got into am accident, where it jumped a curb, and the underside got damaged. Upon checking the car, the collision repair mechanic said one of the front gram bars was tilted upwards slightly. They say that it can be repaired with heating, but that might jeopardise the structural integrity. Is that true? and is there other ways of repairing the front frame bars?
I’m currently watching a focus ST I’ll let you know if I get it
I know you tend to build cars to keep and drive them yourself, but what is it like to sell a rebuilt vehicle? I assume they seek for less, but is there much profitability?
OKay so you work on a farm and actually just started doing this stuff for about 2 years now? I guess you already where a car fanatic right? Where do you find the time if you work on a farm, i mean that already takes a ton of time right?
Damn thats a pretty good deal I was able to get a fiesta ST from IAAI for 3000 including fees with recargos and premium paint and it took about a grand to fix overall price was 4000 a I got so lucky honestly lmao
I just got a 2018 Fiesta ST for $17,500 when it was $25,000 and it only has 56 miles 😁 it pays to know the sales manager BTW this is my first car
I'm heavily considering doing this and I'm getting more inspired with the more digging I do. I have a 2005 Honda Odyssey with 156k on it it runs beautifully but the age is catching up to it and it's starting to pile up on the repairs and with my other car recently repossessed buying from a dealer is out of the question. My thought is to buy a salvage odyssey and rebuild it to replace my aging van.
Super late reply but I’m 17 about it be 18 do you think it would be a good investment to do this instead of buying a used one ?
I wish you all could see the Euro ST. It looks so much better.
What about body stiffness when you get accident? (sorry for my bad english, i am not from english country but from the Netherlands) I like your videos!!!
Why would you buy a 5-door one?
Dope… I found you through the bio hazard car videos. I could do salvage car but I would never do a bio hazard car. But this is a dope Channel
I don’t like hatch back but this is a nice car.
New subscriber have A 65 Fiesta ST love that car.
COPART SHOULD PAY U FOR ADVERTIE THERE COMPANY SOO MUCH
I bought a 2014 Fiesta SE with 60K miles at an auction for $1,700 because it did not start and had a pin to start the engine. Plus it had some front damage (nothing too bad) my dad and I spent all day trying to figure out hot to start it (we don’t know much about cars). After trying out passwords one finally worked… 1-2-3-4 😂 the car started. After DMV fees, I love my $1,900 fiesta!!! It works perfectly.
It's great that you saved 50% off retail!.. But it's worth 50% less then that.
Man that's a hella coincidence that you got TShirt Driving's ST parts, I was watching his Green Machine videos when I came across this
