This week on Money Pit, we take a look at answering the age-old question: Is buying someone else’s project car a good idea? It seems like a good way to save some money on aftermarket parts that you would end up buying anyway, but it can definitely be a huge can of worms. Come along as we inspect James’ new project car to see if he made a good move or just flushed his cash down the ol’ money pit!
We have a new channel!

  • Sold my old truck, junk, after buying a newer one. When my neighbors asked how much I was selling it for, I told them that I refuse to sell it to anyone. I’m wreckless with my life but have a good enough heart to not trust my work with another’s life. I don’t understand how some mechanics are able to do shoddy work and call themselves professionals.

It would be interesting to see him learn as he works on the car, or who knows? Maybe he is just as good or better than Jobe and can make some really cool videos. Either way I hope we see more of the Trueno.

    • Ok, so neither person is technically wrong. Animé is a type of cartoon, but when you call animé a cartoon, you make it sound as though grown adults are watching animation intended for children and only children. You can be a fan of animé, you can be a fan of American animation (even if it’s done by a Japanese studio), but somehow, when you start calling animation “cartoons,” well, you’re not watching Initial D, you’re watching Wacky Racers, even though you’re an adult and need to grow up! It’s like they’re not “toys,” they’re “collectibles.”

Ive pulled 52 feet and 10 inches of useless wire, deleted the entire R22 AC system, breather to the intake & valve cover, oil pan leak fix, throw out bearing fix, tore out rubber cemented in carpet & epoxy painted the interior, installed a bluetooth reciever & speakers, multiple gauges, EGR delete, LED headlight upgrade, wiper brace armor, and so much more to come and Ive never been happier with a purchase that Ive made 2 years and some change ago. This lil thing turns heads and rips and theres always something more I want to add onto it, hell might even twin charge it after all the engine upgrades.

  • So if some of you in the comments section are considering buying a heavily modded car, here’s my advice. If you are inexperienced with cars, DON’T. I’ve seen it time and time again where people will buy a car like this, and it overwhelms them very quickly. Just buy a factory bone stock car and start with a blank canvas. Learn as you go! It becomes your car, you start to get a “feel” for that car. You’ll recognize when something is wrong. When a car is this heavily modified from the get go, and you don’t know what’s going on you’ll drive it into the ground without realizing

    • So just to clarify, if it’s something small like a car with some coilovers and exhaust, sure that’s fine. A newbie isn’t going to struggle anymore with that than a factory car. But if we’re talking something with a fancy engine swap/a car with some stuff that’s been custom wired etc etc, I’d say that’s a bit much for a newbie to get into. It pains me to see people I know who made that mistake and now they have cars sitting in their driveway for over a year because they can’t tackle something like that

Yea they can talk about cars and make videos on them and talk about how they're "car guys" all they want but a polished turd at the end of the day is still a turd. Now if you really want to learn about cars, I suggest you subscribe to channels like Car Wizard or Hoovie's Garage. And as much of an asshole that I think he is, Scotty Kilmer. You'll actually learn something useful from them.
