You see cars with rusted wheel wells all the time out on the road, but what’s a good way to fix that particular issue?
A mechanic was nice enough to posted a video on TikTok and show viewers how it’s done.
The mechanic showed viewers a truck with a rusted wheel well above a tire and he said, “Let me show you guys the $50 car dealer trick.”
He then showed viewers a black liner that he drilled onto the car to cover up the rust.
The mechanic then said, “All right, let’s go find something else” and showed viewers a 2021 GMC Sierra that had a lot of damage.
He said, “Let’s see what kind of parts we’re gonna sell off of this thing. I doubt the tailgate, not the bed. Probably not the wheel. Not the door. Not the door. Not the fender.”
He continued, “I don’t really know what engine was in this one. Look at how the windshield melted on top of the engine. In reality, there’s nothing to do with this truck except throw it into the crusher. Maybe, just maybe, some crazy person would actually buy that tailgate.”
Here’s the video.
