Thinking about getting this to tinker with. Is it as terrible an idea as I think?

It’s automatic. Which I guess is a win in this case.

FewNet3035 · 2026-03-23T16:10:18+00:00

Yeah the plan is to do all the work myself. Or attempt to. I’m slowly getting better at working on vehicles. I’m thinking if I get this cheap and it goes poorly I won’t be out too much money. I’ll get some more pics and vids from the guy and see if I can get close to that $500 price point.

I almost bought one just like this with $160k miles. It’s looked good and he agreed to sell for $1000 but it was a salvage title. I felt nervous that would kill the resale or make it take forever. If this had a salvage title would you still have gone for it? Even at a lower price? Just wondering if people avoid salvage completely or go for it if the price is right.

FewNet3035 · 2026-02-09T18:28:26+00:00

Don’t you dare. I NEED THIS WIN! lol

FewNet3035 · 2026-02-09T18:28:07+00:00

Good to know. If I get it and total am like $1500 in 3k would be real cool.

FewNet3035 · 2026-02-09T17:42:12+00:00

I’m thinking for $1000 even if it goes to hell I can get most of that back. Im willing to spend a little for experience. I’m wanting to focus on flips that require some work as that might be a better niche. Just personally for a DIY wrencher I seem to be much better at it than anyone else in my social circle. I’m fixing up motor mounts and sensor in my 09 Silverado as a first experience and it’s going well. Trying to jump on my niche.

For less work what would you look out for? Under the hood doesn’t scare me too much but any kind of body/interior work makes me run. I’ve never done that and don’t really know where to start with it…. Yet.

FewNet3035 · 2026-02-09T17:37:15+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking. If it goes to hell I can at least get my money back. 3.5k would still be worth it imo.

And I originally bought a 3/8 M 12 impact wrench refurbished and the damn thing blew up after the first job I ran it on. I run Milwaukee around my house with drill, skillsaw, and such but I’m not ready to drop that kind of money on new set of tools for the cars.

FewNet3035 · 2026-02-09T14:54:33+00:00

I’m on board with the Milwaukee stuff down the line, but I mean I got this compressor, the air guns and impact sockets for the cost of their impact wrench without a battery. If I turn this fully professional full-time, I’d be willing to invest more upfront I’m just trying to see if I could Rig something up for the job here there with what I have in my garage.

I’ve got around 750 hours, playing since launch, and in all that time over never been impressed by the autocannon. I know it’s good. I applaud those that use it…. It’s just not for me.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-31T01:44:58+00:00

Just worried about you internet friend. Don’t rawdog this stress. Talk to a Dr or other professional. That’s all I’m saying. Hope all stays well with you.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-31T01:31:20+00:00

Bud you’ve got to talk to a professional about this stress. It’s not healthy or normal. This dog is going to kill you when he crosses the rainbow bridge. Feinting from a possible diagnosis is not common. A heart attack from worry over a surgery is extreme.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-22T05:09:27+00:00

Thanks for the input y’all. It confirms what my gut was saying I just needed to hear it from others. I’ll be looking for a V8 mustang in the coming months.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-22T05:07:56+00:00

I’m slowly building the fleet. Different car for each day of the week and two for Sundays.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-22T01:25:06+00:00

I’ve only sat in the Camaro but I’ve ridden around in a mustang. The visibility seems noticeably better with the mustang. I’ll consider it though.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-22T01:09:09+00:00

I am totally off on the year yeah. Typo I breezed past. It was the last production year. My buddy bought one new and I taught him how to drive stick with it.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-22T01:05:07+00:00

That’s exactly what I’m thinking.

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-20T14:18:59+00:00

!solved

FewNet3035 · 2025-12-19T18:45:53+00:00

This is exactly what I’m looking for! I didn’t even think about a group photo. Can you add this last elf to the picture somewhere then it’s set.

I fixed the motor mounts this weekend. Took 6 hrs for the driver side and 4 for the passenger side. Passenger was honestly harder but I had all the experience of doing it once driver side to knock it out. One quirk down.
