Does anyone remember about 10 years ago a series of threads called 'Dew trail CYOA"? It was about moonshine running that allowed anons on /o/ to roleplay a character in the 1940s or something. I think the story started with us driving a 1930s Ford we got for $10 that eventually became a flat 6 turbo Corvair, im forgetting alot of details but that thread was really super comfortable and im feeling nostalgic and want to reread it if it exists somewhere somehow

>>27840190oof I'm a little too far away. Definitely try your local corvair club, most corvair guys are hoarders
>>27840255Here's hoping. The overwhelming majority of ones I've seen for sale have been Powerglides. Apart from the 4-speed, I'd ideally like a 2nd gen one. Coupe or sedan.
>>27837105Wouldn't that (aerodynamicly speaking) be more stable going backwards?
I want an early 90s rotary swapped bimmer
>>27839280Just get an accord v6

>>27840786RIP Fun
>>27839242Would be super cheap with a Renesis engine.Plus you're staying within the power/performance rage of the M3/Alpina models so you could even TÜV it

Why can't you buy a new NA civic with a manual transmission?Does the cvt have appreciatively better gas mileage?
>>27840869>Why can't you buy a new NA civic with a manual transmission?You can though. The hatchback in Sport trim has the option for a manual transmission.
ah so that's the reference to why I sometimes see her posing with Civics

>>27840918And then it falls apart and you replace the whole thing or do major repairs
what's the point of a shift light?
>>27841617Looks cool
>>27841617Racers shift by ear but when you're in a race start with 40 other cars within 3 car lengths of you, you need to work off of something elseNext question
>>27841617My Geo Metro has a shift light that clicks on when you are supposed to shift for economy. It's funny because it is basically telling you to shift right as you hit the power band.
>>27841617The chevy truck I learned to drive stick on had one because it didn't have a tach. It had a digital radio screen despite being an '80s truck but no tach

I drive...to the nearest mcdonalds
>>27841355I did notice recently they have new adult happy meals for just $5. Not sure how long this deal will last tho.
>>27841347>mcdonaldswhy though?There's a lot better places to go.
>>27841355I stop at the McDonald's every friday for a triple cheeseburger.fixed that for your fatty. No reason to add stupid pointless zoomer shit to your post
>>27841604How does eating one burger per week make me a fatty? What is this insane projecting?
>>27841612Calling any american fat would be correct 60% of the time, simple probability
Fellow yurups, do you too have to get all kinds of extra alarm shit and a tracker installed to get 100K plus vehicles insured?I'm finally in a position to get an expensive car but it'll come at the cost of being tracked wherever I go, because otherwise my car won't be insured for theft or joyriding
That's usually opt-in. But it doesnt matter, dont spend 100k euroes on a fucking car retard.
>>27841125europeasant fuming lmao
>>27841125I'm not, but the MSRP is indicative for this shit, and not used price
>>27841131I'd say the same to an american. No car is worth 100k whether usd or eur, but at least in america you get to enjoy it more than in europe. Having an expensive as shit car here is a total waste.
>>27841084it's because they let in too many shitskins. The rate of car theft has gotten too high for insurance companies. When europe was still white you didn't even need to lock your car...>t. work at insurance company
Should I take a chance and try applying bedliner myself or should I take it to a Line-X shop?
>>278408102 questions from a europoor. Is that just a textured paint and why is it better than the hard plastic covering the truckbed?
>>27840810Roll it on dont spray it, less mess and thicker heavier coat. Bonus points, take the bed off and do the frame and under the bed for salt protection.>>27841007Roll it, you wont clean the gun they give you, then wont have a way to finish the other half.>>27841034Heavy thick paint with grit mixed in. Plastic bedliners allow water to get trapped under them, thus causing beds to rot underneath the plastic.Once its dry, get yourself a nice thick rubber mat so you can drop heavy shit in the back and not chip or dent your bed.
>>27841044This.I will add one thing.TAPE OFF THE REST OF THE BED.Don't think "oh I'll just stop at this point..."It will look like shit.>don't forget to pull the tape before it cures.
I was thinking of getting my running boards, which are currently peeled to shit, raptor lined. Is it durable and more importantly does it have good anti slip? It’s either this or getting them powder coated. Which will hold up better?
Why stop at the bed? Just spray the whole truck!
Post trends you miss. For me, it's copper paint.
>>27838501Damn you're right they stopped doing that on the Si
>>27832821Three of these cars are incredibly based. The other one is an Eclipse.

>>27839062are there any european super car?

NOT THAN BMW
Or at least an alternative any options that you guys know of ??
>>27837253You can get an apprenticeship
>>27837340>>27835157Whats a clear sign that imNot meant to be a mechanic,>thinking of a career change., but at the same time i like wrenching it just sucks that im a slow learner you know.i feel like mechanicing just isnt my thing , although i enjoy it.
>>27831041I'm a heavy diesel rebuild mechanic and make decent money and can pick all my hours. It's a really good specialty that's easier to get into than people think. If you're smart and meticulous I'd recommend it. There's a lot of really nice positions that will hire auto techs (good ones) and pay you well to do easier stuff. I enjoy researching different careers there seems to be more choice than ever.
>>27840018How does one get in to that , as an apprenticeship.
Look in to companies like Detroit diesel Allison, or stewart and stevenson.
How reliable is this car? At what mileage should I be worried about shit like transmission or brakes? I already know I got to at least constantly keep changing the oil every 5k. Anyone has experience with it.
I've heard good things about the b58 and zf8 transmission
I just had to replace my front brakes at about 28k miles but I drive like a cunt.
>>27839728>How reliable is this car?The reliability thing has been figured out, it's not reliable. The question you should ask yourself is why bother driving a rental. Life's too short brother.
If you have to ask. You can't afford it.Used German repair costs=just leasing a new one.
>>27841252How much did it cost?>>27841294I wasn't going to rent. I was going to buy a used one for only 10k miles with a good deal.So far I've been getting mixed responses, others say the engine is good and will lasts, others say it's unreliable.
How come 5,800 cars get hit by trains every year.Like seriously, people this retarted to not be on the tracks
>>27841348She probably stopped on the tracks for the red light. No thinking only breathing required to acquire drivers license in usa.
>>27841348the average level of intelligence is at an all time low, were literally living in a time when your average joe is fine with onepercenters fucking up the entire world economy for decades to come using a fucking flu as an excuse. That these creafures kill themselves in the dumbest ways imaginable is natural selection at work.
>>27841348a couple of them bottom out. have you not seen videos of 12+ people trying to push a car off the tracks before it gets hit by a train? they get stuck. and no you fucking moron, this doesn’t happen exclusively to cars with less than 1 inch of ground clearance.
>>27841391also, some people seem to think it’s better to get struck by a train and potentially earn some huge payout than to scratch their car a bit by ramming through the flimsy barriers. i don’t know if the former actually happens but i’m guessing that’s what half the niggers getting struck on youtube think.
