I bought this 2000 Cadillac Crystal Coach Hearse at Copart Salvage Auction with Mechanical Damage. The bid was super cheap but in the end it ended up costing over $1000 to get rid of it. I also bought a Twin Turbo V8 BMW 550i with a locked up engine, I tried starting it anyway.

This happened to a friend of mine when his car had 65K miles and he called bmw HQ and bitched about it they ended up giving him a discount on a long block instead of paying 7600 for a long block he got the engine from the dealership next to him for 3500 and payed a thousand dollars to get it installed it’s an amazing car

Superior Coach has been making specialty vehicles for 90 years. I had one that was a 1965 Pontiac Bonneville Hearse with a 421 engine... What a blast that was to drive to the junk yards picking up muscle car parts.!!

Hi Sam. That might have been my old car. If so it was stolen last year. After recovery the Insurance company had deemed the car beyond repairable and Totaled the vehicle. It always leaked oil (would have to add a quart of oil very often) and had battery issues all the time. Though the car is beautiful and very powerful it was a lemon from the time I got it. Best of luck. Happy to give you more information on the car if you can determine if it came from Nashville.

The BMW is under CPO warranty and they’ve now covered about $48k of work on it. If I REALLY need to get somewhere, I have a Tacoma.

A 535i with an N55 modded and tuned is far more reliable than one of these engines stock. I know it is because Alpina's variant has twin turbos and revised tuning making more power and torque. Crazy how badly they messed these up.

The hearse is rusty but I don't think it's splitting in half. It looks like the join has been disguised with body filler, and some surface rust on the metal underneath has expanded, blown the filler and cracked the paint.
As the program was, BMW supplies a short engine, it has heads, valve covers, spark plugs vacuum pump, water pump. I put one in and it was $12k with all the other stuff, injectors, turbos, gaskets, seals, one time use bolts and fluids... brand new updated engine with zero miles. It's actually more like a long block, with new turbos and tune it's easy 500 horse and running perfect. The program for replacement BMW was covering 90% of the short engine cost. In other words it's a $30,000 engine that you get if you're lucky it's going to be $9k to $15k with labor and stuff. The one I did took me a a week but held up the hoist for almost a month waiting for parts.
In my country, that BMW, in that condition, could sell at 12k $ as a whole or just for the parts

The market for these cars are limited compared to Honda, Toyota, etc. Plus, I absolutely hate dealing with the public...like saying they are coming to look at a car and never show up! I really enjoy your channel because you "tell it like it is" and you do not try to impress like some of your friends! Take care!

Thank you for inspiring me to start my own channel Sam. All of your information especially on Copart has been very helpful. I decided to start my own channel where I buy wrecked cars and fix them to give away to those in need. I had a brain tumor removed 3 years. I was sick for a long time and almost died from the operation. That inspired me to use my second chance on life to helping others. Just finished my first car and will be giving it away next week. I'm would like to ask you what software you use for your editing? I know a lot about cars but I know nothing of editing and thats been a big learning curve. I'm using we video now but it's been giving me issues with uploading videos to edit. Thanks again for all you do sam.
