Flip a comanche?
So my buddy and I are thinking about flipping a car for some extra cash this summer and I came across this comanche. It would clearly need a tune up, body work and it might have rust, but with under 90k miles I feel like if I put some money in it I could get a serious dividend. I have a buddy that can paint and my friend and I are both more than comfortable doing basic work. What do yall think? http://greensboro.craigslist.org/cto/4448170792.html

Market and price will make or break you.How many other mj are on craigslist around you and how long have they been listed?The cars i use to flip i always bought from charity car auctions.I went for the cars that looked great but needed a engine or trans.Some i made a grand or more off some was break even.

Yeah that's what I started to think about. 88k miles is great but i don't think anyone's out to spend a bunch of money on a low mile mj. I think I will start lookin into auctions for a car to buy thanks.

All i can tell you is do your home work on the cars before you buy them.Watch the market so you can have a idea of what you can get it for it.Get on the mailing list for like volunteers of america,Goodwill,salvation army even the police will auction off stuff they own or the impound lot will.The dealer kinda auctions are a joke they want you to put down like 300 just to get a number to bit but you get it back later.Most of the stuff is grabbed up by the used car lots and prices are high a lot of time.The charity auctions can be hit and miss a lot of people donate stuff that should be junked for the tax write off.But sometimes they just donate a good car that needs work those are what you look for.
