>tfw my car is old and doesn't have much time left on this earth
>>
Your own fault then.
>>
>>28770162
so fix it? it's almost gauranteed to be cheaper than buying a used or god forbid, a new one.

my car is old and has a lot of time left on this earth

cars from the 2000s are not worth restoring
also the market for keeping older cars alive is thinning out so it'll eventually be like cubans where they'll be repowered death traps on diy brake pads and then it'll all be gone.
cause chinks basically.

>>28770181
depends on the car.
i'll keep my mustang running until the heat death of the universe.

>>28770162
What car do you have?
>>
>>28770181
Then maybe, just maybe buy spare parts and store them up somewhere.

that will last near forever, if you've taken care of it.
what the fuck are you on about?
>>
>>28770227
Probably rusted to shit underneath
>>
>>28770235
ahhh, from the pic i assumed northern california, didn't consider rust.. good point anon.
>>
>>28770181
Restoration and basic maintenance are two worlds apart anon
>>
>>28770235
didn't they recall the frames on those? so op could get a new one for free?
>>
>>28770181
You have a very retarded and wrong perspective. I just want you to know that anon.
>>
>>28770181
>x is not worth restoring
I hate this retarded train of "thought". It's the same as those negative IQ mongrels who buy shitboxes and drive them till they prematurely die and buy another mystery meat shitbox instead of fixing up the first one.
>>
>>28770235
>Probably
This retard can't even roll under his own truck and see if there's rust. What a faggot.
>>
>>28770162
You fuckin frogpost again and I guarantee that you won't live to see 2026
>>
>>28770172
Not OP but my 2008 Mazda needs an engine rebuild to fix all the blow by, a transmission rebuild to fix all the slipping, a ton of bodywork to fix the rot, an entirely new rear suspension for the same reason, new tires, and an AC compressor.
It's time.

>still remember when my dad lost his shit trying to put a stack of toilet paper on top of some stuff and it kept falling down, 20 years ago
>last month he had an apopleptic fit over someone slightly blocking our driveway (could still get out), actually started kicking and slapping the vehicle like a baby
some things never change

>>28773199
Kek boomers are such literal children it's unreal, you wonder how they even lived with how schizophrenic the men are
>>
>>28773449
i was holding on for dear life trying not to laugh my ass off while he kept shoving the bag of toilet paper back onto the pile, every time he did it you could see the increasing frustration and rage until he just kept slamming it down hard in exactly the same way, despite it just falling off again and again.
the blocked driveway incident i genuinely thought he was going to have a literal aneurysm or a heart attack. he worked himself up so much that even the owners of the vehicle were telling him he was gonna have a heart attack. And his eyes, holy fuck his eyes...I've never seen such derangement or raw rage like that. He really looked like he wanted to just kill them on the spot.
After I told him to go back inside they were utterly baffled, especially since it turned out they were previous customers of his from when he fixed up their computers, I was too young at the time so I didn't know. I asked my dad if he recognised them...nope. While I was talking to them, I told them
>when he gets mad, he gets REALLY mad
and everything suddenly clicked for them. Later on my dad told me he got so mad because he thought it was the developers next door because they kept doing this shit all the time apparently. Not once did he ever ask those guys nicely to not block the driveway though. It's always everyone else's fault but his.
There's a lifetime of stories like this, and as infuriating as it is to have to clean up after his mess, when he dies, I hope he can find peace in the next life.

I have a 92 Geo Metro with 250k miles on it and nothing at all is wrong with it. 94 Sidekick with only the smallest amount of body rot. Cars last for fucking ever
