To people who thinks buyin a car and putting it back on the market with much more profit, it aint gonna happen. Like Crimson stated, you have to put some work to it, and if its good enough work its worth it and some...Like i posted before, my cousin and i flip cars. its good money, slow at times but good. Just depending on what we buy and what parts i have lying around and what we have to do to the car.

We bought a 93 4 door honda civic for $1000 with missing lights, uneven wheels dirty interior.. pretty much someone who didnt take care of the car. I put about 2 weeks of work detailing it, fixing every electrical, i had blackies with OEM honda hubcaps and threw those on... Got the car sold for $2500... and thats not registering it or smogging it.

Then a vert i sold for my dad, we picked it up for $1500, did the same, and sold it for $2400.

Then he bought a 300ZX turbo from a junkyard with no front end and molded up interior for $900. Changed all that, spent about $300 for a paint job and sold the car for $3600.
