noob here.
same setup, scenario and everything: if he tried to keep it clean and not get the rear out, would he have been quicker through this or a lot slower?
Going to a self-serve junkyard tommorow, any tips?
I plan on finding hood struts, maybe a bush guard and other small things.
Tools I should bring aside from the basic stuff?
>>16885816
Something to hold your shit. unless they provide shopping carts. also if it's dirt floor be prepared for mud.
I like to sneak a cold one in my toolbag and find a relatively nice car and sit it in and crack open my beer and just bask in the field of cars.
>>16885816
Bring a gun or a knife.
>>16885866

Will it be good?
Oh boy this thread again
If rotaries are so small, why is it shaped like a fucking boat?

What the fuck is wrong with boomers? How in the fuck does this senile fucking retard think he can get 7500 for a salvage title rusted out 318 console shift non r/t challenger. Their generation cant die off soon enough
https://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/6011942520.html
That's dealer too.
boomer + dealer = maximum kippuh
because even a 318 Challenger will fetch 20k+ when in good shape and that car is still largely there
when they die these cars will be sold for around the same price as they are now because people like you still want them
millennials are already doing the same thing to shitboxes from the 80s and 90s so dont think boomers are anything special
Everyone wants the car they had in high school or really wanted but couldn't. So sense the kids in a few years will all be driving dirt cheap new chargers and challengers I'm going to buy a bunch and store them for 40 years and be rich. right now used chargers v8 are 6k used challengers are 14k. still a bit high for high schoolers.
I'm curious o/ what is the most tard shit you heard from any non car person who is a know it all, or even if they're not a know it all?
Mine
"I don't get the point of that wing thingy?"
Verbatim pretty tame.
Also post pics of cars in general.

Why are used Toyota tacomas and tundras so damn expensive? Not just late 2000's but I am talking about early 90's to early 2000's mainly. Why are they so damn expensive? What makes them different from Chevys, Fords, and Rams? Is it the engineering or just the overall build quality? I see same year tacomas and tundras go for thousands more than Rams and Silverados in the exact same condition. What makes toyotas so special?
>>16880848
They're in high demand because of isis
Build quality. More $$ to maintain because Japanese parts are fuckin pricy, too.
Older Taco's have a frame rot recall, either they were junked or the bed/cab was lifted and put on a new frame. Other than that I'd rock one, but they are harder to find in the wreckers for cheap parts.
>>16880883
Yes I heard about that, I mean if there's a completely new frame on there I could see why but a lot of the ads don't mention anything like that. That leads me to believe they're trying to sell a 6000 dollar 15 to 20 year old truck that's rusted as hell
Why does /o/ hate WRXs?
silly noise and a gearbox made out of glass, I'd imagine
vape
and shit reliability
and shit gearboxes
and shit engine
and shit engine note
and fucking horrible to work on
gee i wonder
>>16879769
They can't afford them
It seems like there are two camps of people:
1. People who say BMWs are horribly unreliable
2. People who say BMWs will run for a million miles
There's never anything in between.
I always sort of thought that the prior are just people who didn't take of it properly. Am I right on this?
I had kinda looked at a 2-series but my father immediately came with the "they're money pits, anon. It'll always be in the shop."
For the record, I take very good care of my current econobox. Fluids checked regularly, oil change always on schedule.
I even got complimented on how well maintained it was the last time I took it to the dealership shop.
What's your experience with BMWs?
Will they last if you take care of them or are they doomed from the start?
Mine is going strong at 330k with nothing major.
Its a fucking shitty meme that they're unreliable.
3. People who don't give a shit about BMWs other than when one cuts them off in traffic
>>16877961
>Will they last if you take care of them
Absolutely. However, they take much more effort to work on than your usual econobox, so a lot of people neglect them, resulting in unreliable examples.

Cars your dad almost bought in the 1980s for $13,000 edition
A thread devoted to all classics regardless of nationality or condition.
>Cars your dad almost bought in the 1980s for $13,000 edition
More like 13,000 Ostmark and more like actually bought. Could be wrong on the price though.
>>16868781
A story about missing an opportunity like a 250GT Pininfarina for 13,000 is more entertaining than the story of a average bloke buying a trabant
>>16868772
>le muh dad paid 3k for a hemi cuda in the 70s
13k was a shitton of money in the 80s bro. Fuck that car and look at what 13k would have done in Apple. I don't get why people don't understand inflation.
Got myself a used toyota solara 2001 for 2k
got out today and smelt like something was burning maybe oil? what do
Kill yourself for buying such a shit car AND not having it checked by a mechiac
