I think you got me confused with someone else because this couldn't be further from the truth lol. I've worked as a mechanic and I own two classic cars.
Alrighty. I'll concede. ๐
I also own a few classics, including a Porsche 944 turbo with popup headlights. But it stopped running almost a decade ago. Poor car.
Oooh, pretty! Shame it doesn't run
Ha yeah. It was repainted "Black Cherry" ages ago. Really nice color in the sun.
I think the turbo is leaking oil, fouling stuff pretty quick, and I dislodged the firewall pumping the clutch so that needs a few welds to keep from flexing. Lots of stuff to do on that car, and other projects had priority.
