With his mechanical skills, he rebuilt the car on his own in his home garage. After completing the restoration, he managed to recover footage of the accident from the car’s system, revealing that the Tesla had collided with another vehicle, resulting in a total loss.
Winston spent approximately $25,000 on the project, including the purchase price and the cost of replacement parts. This was a significant saving for his parents, for whom he rebuilt the vehicle, as a new Tesla Model 3 costs about $52,000. In the end, the project was around $27,000 cheaper than buying a new car.
In addition to restoring the car, Winston shared the story on his YouTube channel, “WinstonsGarage,” where he showcased the rebuilding process. His expertise in electric vehicles gained attention, and he even applied for an internship at Tesla, which could be a big step forward in his career.
