firstly its only worth $200,000 and secondly it was mostly stripped of parts prior to crushing. don't believe the hype. the same shit happens in Australia when customs catches illegally imported cars. I know of one compliancer under the old CPA scheme who had roughly $150,000 worth of Rav4's crushed for illegally importing them without approvals.

Also keep in mind that the money to buy these cars don't come from hard earned wages. they come from drugs, prostitution and other illegal sources. f**k em, if you don't set a precedent the cockjockeys will never get the message.

Pulling a stunt like that requires big balls, especially in a place like Thailand, the people involved took a huge punt and got caught out. This is the same government that censors/blocks google and youtube... they're not afraid to enforce the law to the letter of the word.

this has no relation to the GDP of the country, the people involved in this are richer than a lot of people in australia... there's a very big economic imbalance in these regions. Even if that car was auctioned not a cent of it would have gone back to the people. It'd merely have channeled itself back into a politician/official's pocket or the perps themselves.

      You 100% could do that, would save money on a gym membership lol. But yeah, getting a cordless orbital sander will feel priceless coming from doing it manually.  Good luck with it mate

      I initially was going to do the whole car with a block then realised, it would be a bigger monster of the job 😂 I guess that's all part of the learning process. I appreciate all that advice, I think I got a good idea on how to tackle this whole job.

      I admire your efforts with the scuff pad.  As a mere mortal, I use this for the baulk of my sanding work- https://sydneytools.com.au/product/milwaukee-m18bos125-0-18v-li-ion-cordless-125mm-5-random-orbital-sander-skin-only Yes you can easily create a low spot while sanding. There are 2 types of filler, 1 part of 2 part. The 2 part filler will get used for large corrections and the 1 part filler will get used for pin holes and areas that only need slight filling.  Depending on how zealous you are with the sander (very easy to do with a power tool) or if you are chasing rust etc, yes those low spots will need to get filled or you will end up with a very obvious defects in the paint.  Using the guide coat and large sanding block, high and low areas will be revealed (watch youtube videos for a good visual on this). Its up to you if you think its worth the effort to make the car completely flat before you spray it (you make it flat by filling the low areas).  At the end of the day, it comes down to time. The end result comes from the level of prep put in to the car. If you want a perfect result, you have to put in the time during the prep stage or else it will be impossible to achieve a perfect result during the spraying process.
