When is a old car a new car?

Not new. Refurbished.

You see extensive restorations like this where entire frames and panels are replaced, and it's not the original car anymore because literally everything's been replaced

Just replace your goddamned ship already, Theseus.

Yeah, once the frames swapped it's a whole new car, not a refurbished car.

>>17861557
I was talking more about it being a different car, not like a 'showroom new' car.

>>17861596
Wut?

Well, it'd have 1 true VIN unless you pull a fast one the next time you transfer/register it. Very common when guys fuse parts cars together into some abomination.

Parallel Lives, written by Plutarch.

The Ship of Theseus Paradox. It is the fun times.

When it starts doing unpredictable and inexplicable "old car" things, and you get used to just putting up with it and trying to just call them "quirks" or a "personality."

Then one day you think about letting your mom drive it and you realize she'd have no idea what to do.

As long as there exists a part that is part of a chain that could directly trace its history to being connected to an original part or a part that was connected to an original part, the car is the same car

Is a European country still the same country when you've replaced the entire population with islamic mudspawn?

This is why VINs exist you fucking retards.

>>17865835
No. In fact, even at 2% of the population Islamic takeover is extremely visible because of ghettoization and nepotism. See: London.

Well your cells naturally die off and replace themselves every 7 years (iirc)

Are you a new person every seven years?

But pertaining to cars, my uncle has a small monster truck he likes to call the mudburban, it's his 7th gen suburban mudding vehicle. I wouldn't call it a suburban anymore.
