New Year, New Wreck | Fixing a Deer-Damaged Car in the Shop

Happy New Year and welcome to 2026. We’re kicking off the year the only way we know how… in the shop, fixing what got tore up. After Clancy hit a deer, Black Beauty needed some serious attention, so the whole crew jumped in to get it back together. What started as a “quick fix” turned into a full-on bumper removal, parts swapping, bending metal back into shape, and plenty of shop banter along the way. This video is real ranch life. No script. No shortcuts. Just family, tools, frustration, laughter, and figuring it out as we go. From busted brackets and bent core supports to zip ties, WD-40, heat, and a whole lot of patience, we walk through repairing deer damage and getting this car back on the road. If you like honest shop days, learning as you go, and seeing how we handle setbacks on the ranch, you’re in the right place. 👇 Drop a comment and tell us: Have you ever started the year with a wreck or a repair you didn’t plan on? As always, thanks for being here. Keep wrenching and keep praying. — Cody & Erika Bar 7 Ranch ⏱️ CHAPTERS 00:00 New Year, New Wreck 00:45 Walking Into a Perfectly Clean Shop 01:30 What Happened to Black Beauty 02:10 Assessing the Deer Damage 03:45 Pulling the Bumper & First Repairs 06:30 Learning How It All Comes Apart 09:00 Shop Lessons You Learn the Hard Way 12:15 Removing Lights, Clips, and Wiring 15:40 Family Chaos & Shop Commentary 18:10 Straightening the Core Support 21:00 Live Fixes, Food Breaks & Real Life 24:00 Getting Things Lined Back Up 27:30 Reassembly Struggles 30:00 When Frustration Sets In 33:45 Heat, Muscle, and Persistence 36:10 Wrapping Up the Shop Day Subscribe to Bar 7 Ranch: https://bit.ly/3Xjjcv1 📩 Business Inquiries: [email protected] ✨ Watch Our Latest Videos Here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlQd6-LRXC0QiSJMboeixoD_YeQkn6R3U&playnext=1&index=2 🙏 Faith & Family Sermons & Devotionals: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJFxo_GG5mToxi1A6SBvbXw 🌾 Follow Bar 7 Ranch Daily Life: Facebook → https://facebook.com/bar7ranch Instagram → https://instagram.com/bar7ranch/ TikTok → https://tiktok.com/@bar7ranch X (Twitter) → https://twitter.com/bar7ranch Website → https://bar7ranch.com/ 🛒 Shop & Support the Ranch: 🔹 Amazon Favorites: https://www.amazon.com/shop/codyanderikaarchie 🔹 Official Bar 7 Ranch Merch: https://www.bar7ranch.com/category/all-products 🔹 Personalized Cameo Shoutouts: https://v.cameo.com/H6Ej9WIV5Ab 📺 Watch More Bar 7 Ranch: 🚜 Ranching & Farming: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlQd6-LRXC0RXocN3qCT99xUAli70mp0L 🔧 How-To & Fix-It Projects: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlQd6-LRXC0QTmJXfgFnKWuX3-p5Wexkw 📹 Family Vlogs & Adventures: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlQd6-LRXC0QJkKrP0Orm0kZeoPduNdFz 🔥 Most Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlQd6-LRXC0TjSjSjyBX5tjx4_18adL4y&playnext=1&index=2 🤠 About Bar 7 Ranch: Welcome to Bar 7 Ranch — where ranch life, family, and entrepreneurship collide.
