This year, AutoBidMaster launched the ‘Rebuild Challenge’ – a competition where our customers showcased their creativity and prowess through vehicle transformations to be judged by our team. With over 80 submissions, picking a winning car was no easy feat. One submission, however, stood out above the range of submissions we received – ‘Autobody Scotty’ Kennedy’s bold and stunning Dodge Charger from Bonita Springs, Florida!
In 2024, Kennedy purchased a salvage 2017 Dodge Charger RT Ute through AutoBidMaster, completely transforming it from a wreck into a bold head-turner. Painted in a striking bright money-colored green, Kennedy’s attention-grabbing luxury vehicle wowed us with its aesthetic. Not only did Kennedy bring this car back to life, but he elevated it to new heights.
From navigating the difficulties of buying sight unseen to picking the perfect color to reflect his vision, every step reflects Kennedy’s attention to detail and vision. Whether at a Naples car meet or cruising his Bonita Springs locale, Kennedy’s Charger turns heads.
Our documentary below highlights Kennedy’s mindset, goals, background, and the garage where he brought this car back to life. He offers practical advice on purchasing such vehicles, from evaluating photos, using VIN checks, and understanding the challenges and rewards of rebuilding a car like his winning Dodge.
His insights are invaluable for anyone hoping to undertake a similar project or those curious about how a wrecked Charger was transformed into a well-oiled machine. Check out the video below!
We’re excited to announce that the AutoBidMaster Rebuild Challenge will return in 2025! Whether you are a seasoned rebuilder like Kennedy or dipping your toes into the world of rebuilding vehicles, don’t miss out on the chance to showcase your skills and creative vision. Submissions will open in the summer of 2025 – we can’t wait to see what you come up with.
