Background

About Goonzquad

Goonzquad is a U.S.-based automotive YouTube channel built around brothers Simeon and Eleazar, who began rebuilding wrecked and salvage-title vehicles out of their parents' garage before outgrowing it into a dedicated shop. Their format follows a familiar but well-executed blueprint: source a heavily damaged vehicle — often a high-profile nameplate like a Dodge Hellcat, MK4 Toyota Supra, or C8 Corvette — then document every stage of the rebuild in serialized fashion. The channel leans into accessible enthusiasm rather than professional shop polish, which has helped it accumulate millions of subscribers on YouTube with engagement rates that run well above the automotive category median.

Their audience is predominantly male and skews notably older than most creator demographics, with the largest segment falling in the 35-and-up range — a cohort with genuine purchasing power in the automotive and tools space. That audience composition makes Goonzquad a credible fit for aftermarket parts, performance brands, and truck or diesel segments, as reflected in their content mix of diesel pickups and JDM builds alongside more mainstream American muscle. With consistent cross-platform activity across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok and a tightly domestic audience base, the channel is well-positioned to deepen partnerships in the automotive aftermarket and adjacent lifestyle categories.

Brand fit

Why brands partner

Goonzquad reaches an audience concentrated in United States primarily through YouTube, and is best activated via long-form YouTube integrations, Instagram Reels and Stories, TikTok branded content. Their sponsorship history skews toward E-commerce / Shopping, a clear signal of fit for brands in those categories. Demonstrated partners include Temu. Engagement on YouTube runs around 4.7%, which points to an audience better suited to category-relevant, mid-funnel campaigns than to pure-reach buys. The channel's mix of long-form YouTube integrations and Instagram Reels and Stories lets a sponsor choose between short awareness placements and longer, more detailed integrations. Because the audience follows automotive content rather than arriving through untargeted reach, sponsorships that match the channel's subject matter tend to convert more efficiently than broad placements. A consistent, on-topic posting focus gives sponsors a predictable, brand-safe environment, lowering placement risk compared with broad, general-interest channels. Campaigns here are best measured on qualified engagement and consideration within the niche rather than on raw impression volume. For United States-focused brands in E-commerce / Shopping and related categories, Goonzquad offers a defined, creative-fit audience rather than broad, low-intent impressions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the Goonzquad brothers' real names?

The two brothers behind Goonzquad are named Simeon and Eleazar. They use both first names openly in their YouTube channel description, giving the channel a more personal feel than many anonymous car-build accounts.

Are the Goonzquad guys actually brothers in real life?

Yes, Simeon and Eleazar are real brothers, not just a content partnership. The sibling dynamic shapes every video, from how they divide labor on a build to the competitive edge in episodes where they each tackle a separate version of the same project.

Did Goonzquad really start rebuilding cars in their parents' garage?

They did — their YouTube bio states it directly, describing how they started out of their parents' garage before eventually growing into their own dedicated shop. That grassroots origin story is a big part of why their audience, which skews toward older adult car enthusiasts, connects with them.

What is Goonzquad's abandoned MK4 Supra build?

Goonzquad purchased an abandoned Toyota MK4 Supra and documented the full rebuild across multiple videos. The MK4 Supra, particularly in 2JZ-powered form, is one of the most celebrated JDM platforms in car culture, and both #mk4supra and #2jz rank among the channel's most-used hashtags.

Did Goonzquad buy a destroyed C8 Corvette ZR1?

Yes — one of their more recent major projects involves a destroyed C8 Corvette ZR1 they purchased as a salvage vehicle. The C8 ZR1 is one of the most powerful Corvette variants ever produced, making it a higher-stakes rebuild than their typical project.

Does Goonzquad rebuild Hellcats?

The Dodge Hellcat is a recurring platform on the channel, with #hellcat appearing among their most-used hashtags. Wrecked Hellcats are a popular salvage-title target because a heavily damaged example can be sourced at a steep discount while the supercharged engine and drivetrain often survive crashes in rebuildable condition.

Did the Goonzquad brothers each buy their own diesel truck?

Yes — in a recent video titled "We Each Bought a $10,000 Diesel Truck," both Simeon and Eleazar independently picked up a diesel pickup at around that price point. Having each brother source his own version of the same vehicle type and then compare results adds a competitive layer to their usual build format.

What was Goonzquad's Temu product video about?

They posted a video called "We Bought Temu's Craziest Product!!!" in which they ordered and tested a surprising item from the Temu platform. It is a break from their core car-rebuild content and shows how they occasionally mix in reaction-style videos to vary the channel.

What kind of wrecked cars does Goonzquad usually rebuild?

Their projects span American muscle cars like Hellcats and Corvettes, classic JDM platforms like the MK4 Toyota Supra, diesel pickup trucks, and off-road vehicles like sand buggies. The common thread across every build is buying something wrecked, totaled, or abandoned and bringing it back to a driving state.

How big is Goonzquad on YouTube?

Goonzquad has grown to nearly three million subscribers on YouTube, placing the channel firmly in the Macro creator tier. Their engagement rate runs well above the automotive category average, which is a notably strong signal for a channel of that scale.
