Man buys cheapest Toyota Corolla in the country and repairs, fixes and repaints it within three hours to make a big profit

This man bought the cheapest Toyota Corolla in Australia and fixed it in under three hours for a big profit.

Blair Joscelyne, one of the co-hosts of YouTube channel Mighty Car Mods, took his subscribers through the process.

Blair’s aim was to make $1,000 [$623 US] per hour whilst working on the Corolla.

That’s a mighty impressive salary – but could it be done?

Getting the cheapest Toyota Corolla in Australia and making a big profit

Blair started off his video with an attention grabbing piece of advice.

He said: “You want to buy a car that’s cheap and boring!

“And what car do you do that with? The ultimate of all boring cars – the Toyota Corolla, people!”

Harsh, but there’s worse things than being the most boring car – after all, the Corolla is one of the best-selling cars of all time.

It’s better than being the most unreliable car, like the Yugo GV.

He found one going for sale online for $3,200 [$1,996 US], and talked the seller down to $2,800 [$1,746 US].

The car had been involved in a crash, and the previous owner admitted that her attempts to fix it hadn’t been great.

So we can only imagine what sort of vehicle would end up rolling into Blair’s workshop.

It’s as bad as you might expect.

Blair summarized: “It looks like it’s spent its life underneath trees, and because of that, it’s in really poor condition inside and out.

“There’s lot of dirt all over, and it looks like it’s had zero love.”

It looked as if somebody had ran their keys along the surface too.

With the last service check taking place in 2014, a lot of time had passed since this Toyota got any serious attention.

Could this car be fixed?

The first port of call was to clean up the car, which is need of some TLC.

It’s not quite as bad as some other cars we’ve seen like this Fiat 500 Abarth or this BMW 745i, but it’s still not great.

The headlights were polished and the busted rear bumper was swapped out for a $100 used one.

Blair also gave the car a much needed service check up, which involved a oil change and replacing the wiper blades.

To remedy the scratches, a paint touch-up was applied.

The bonnet scratch required some sanding down first though.

All in all, the car ended up being sold for $6,200 [$3,870 US] after $3,270 [$2,041 US] was spent on repairs and cleaning.

That’s a profit of $2,980 [$1,860 US] for three hours work.

Not too shabby at all.
