Younger person trying to get into mechanics and flipping cars. Any suggestions?
Hey everyone! I'm younger and new to cars, but I thought I'd take the opportunity to fix my families old jeep cherokee. It hasn't run in years, and I am lucky to come from a fairly privileged family that has enough cars and doesn't mind selling this old broken one off. Is there any suggestions I should go to begin to learn or find out how to do things and sell cars for profit? Thank you so much in advance.
The jeep in question hasn't run in 2 years. It's had a bit of transmission trouble and the alternator doesn't work period. It's a pain in the ass to even get the thing on lmao, which 90% it doesn't turn over. Tried jumping it multiple times too. I don't know the full extent of work to be done on it, but I plan on buying an OBD diagnostic tool to check the engine if the light comes on.
For note, im not really in this for a "quick easy money" thing. I want to learn how to work on variety of cars and learn mechanic skills that will help me in life, while make some money along with it.
