Just recently bought this 73 Vette with 44k actual miles. Selling my 08 Vette to fund my project. For sure things that are going to happen are engine and transmission swap, suspension, and paint. I've got 9 month I'm going to be a way so I need some inspiration and ideas.
>>24215332I asked in the other thread, why do you want to sell your C6 without the motor? Is your C6s LS3 built already? Also being that your C3 has very low original miles why not build that motor and keep the originality?
>>24215332For the love of God, please do not make another shitty pro touring build with huge tasteless wheels. If you modify it, make it period correct.
>>24215332>after you give birthWhy did you buy it now?
>>24215332Why would you spend so much on a low milage engine just to swap it out? Why not buy a rolling shell or something?
>>24219749His car, he can do what he wants with it. The engine and trans is probably worth a good bit to fund whatever swap he wants. But I agree, I hate to see people fixing cars that weren't broke. Biggest piece of advice I've gleaned from my grease monkey friends is "Nah, it's fine. I wouldn't worry about it."
how the fuck is a shitty little trailer so expensive? i want something to towe a motorcycle without spending 1000 bucks. you would have to haul so often to justify that vs a uhaul rental

What should I buy?2017 Lincoln Continental or 2017 Alfa Romeo GiuliaI want a luxury daily driver, and the prices for used with 10-20K miles are very reasonable.
>>24218288Both are pretty based cars ngl. Alfa is gonna give you way more sport and the continental will give you way more luxury - They're pretty opposite ends of the spectrum. Alfa interior doesn't really compare to the Lincoln if you're going solely for luxury, but the Alfa is faster, a bit more unique and you'll have more fun with it if you're into that. Reliability isn't really going to matter that much with how new they are, but Alfa parts and service might be more expensive assuming you're in North America and the Lincoln will have a Ford dealer at practically every corner.
The alfa rides stiff as hell just so you know. And it isn't luxurious at all. Interior looks nice from 10 feet, but up close there's some hard plastics and some of the physical buttons are rattle-y.
>>24218661Camry and Avalon are different now. The new normal is Tesla.
>>24219701The interior buttons are better on the newer ones. And the stiffness is dependent on the drive mode. I found the steering to be very quick, but my basis for comparison was the Cadillac ATS 3.6, which weighed about the same, but felt MUCH heavier than the Alfa.
>>24218316Nearly any car is reliable nowadays, and back in the boomer days a 'reliable' car is one that can go for a month without the bonnet lifted.
What killed off tuner culture? Back in the 90s/early 2000s there were loads more tuned up cars on the roads, gorillions of tuner magazines on the shelves, tonnes of street racing videogames, movies like F&F coming up to cash in on the trend etc.
>>24219507I am outside every day and I don't see any tuned cars. I see unprecedented control of information sharing, extremely consolidated internet, 95% of vehicles being in monochrome colours and these fucking iPhones in car form being the hottest thing around. Buying a Tesla is literally like saying "I have no personality", and people still boast about it non-stop, exactly what fits [Their] agenda. Work, consume, die, consume some more.
>>24219547>nooo, don't consume that thing, that thing is soulless>consume this other cool thing insteadAll car culture is consumer culture considering the massive amounts of money and resources both the individual and the general public have to spend on maintaining a car society. Hasn't been any different in the '50s and hasn't change since. Cars part fools from their money.
>>24219589A small shop doing fiberglass bumpers, bangin' sound systems, multi-layer candy paintjobs or custom-made glasspack exhausts doesn't put anything into [Their] pockets, in fact it takes it away from [Them] because people buy these instead of big manufacturer's own or manufacturer-approved (read-bribed) options that do beam the money directly to [Them]. Same with used cars, while there are many stupid people who would buy, say, a brand new Corolla instead of an older Camry that's equipped and sized about the same and built with less cut corners and compromises yet costs half as much, but [They] want it all. You, a smart man, might be a 0.1% minority, but [They] will still either ensure you're milked dry and enjoyed it or get you depressed and repressed as someone in need of meds to either take your money anyway or take you out of [Their] equation.
>>24215037Tuner culture also got killed by boomers I mean inflation.Adjusted for inflation, the median household income is the exact same.The median car price on the other hand has gone up. And that's not taking into account how the price of every single other thing has also gone up.People are too broke to put money in a hobby as expensive as cars right now.
>>24212307This this this this thisToday a stupid compact with a 2 liter turbo engine can produce as much power as an old sports car.
Why does every car have to have a fucking touch screen these days? The only thing it's good for is viewing the backup camera.And all modern cars have gay ass nofun "features" like not letting you connect your bluetooth while the car is moving or obnoxiously beeping if you are speeding or don't immediately buckle your seatbelt, all for your "muh safety". I don't want to be safe, I want to be free. Driving is inherently dangerous.Why does every car these days feel so authoritarian and unfun
>>24211305>damn, I wish I didn't have a screenmy brother says basically that every drive in his 2016 Focus ST.infotainment system is complete trash
>>24211305what's it like being you? i can't imagine waking up to being such a fucking retard

can someone explain why the 96' wrx is faster than anything afterwards? i dont know too much about anything behind the scenes with subaru but this seems kind of goofy.

>classified ads>car looks great on pictures>t. owner "yeah everything is working shes in mint condition">arrive>car is a complete shitheap and nothing worksWhy do they do this? pic unrelated.
I saw this posted and haven't seen one before. The owner has it listed as a 1979 Jag XF, which it is certainly not. Triumph something?
>>24218664Thank you friend. Much appreciated.
Isn't there an anon here that has a green TR7 and always posts the same 3 pictures? I miss that guy, haven't seen his car in a while and I wouldn't know anything about Triumph if it wasn't for him
>>24218695He's a faggot who doesn't know how to do basic repairs
>>24218656It's a shame more Triumph TR8's weren't built.Such an improvement over the TR7.
>>24218656a cool one
which coolant temperature sensor goes onto the waterpump in a 1992 corvette? is it the black head or white?

Cars with poorly thought out shortsighted, or just plain stupid namesI'll start>Pic related is not intriguing in the slightest.And "oldsmobile" is a name that sounds made up and, well old, not surprised sales were slipping.
Subaru B9 Tribeca. Has a name associated with cancer ("benign") and looks like a chinese knockoff of an alfa.
>>24219006"Avenger" is a fucking awesome name and it's a tragedy that it was wasted on a shitbox that was basically made for the sole purpose of being a rental car.>>24219095>but how the fuck do you not put Brembo's on any of these products?!ST is all about *affordable* performance and Brembos would've just inflated the price. I'm not sure about the other STs but the Fiesta's brakes are actually taken off a commercial van, I think the UK full size Transit, which imo is actually a pretty cool solution to upgrading the brakes without adding much cost.
>silhouette
Avenge what exactly, with design and performance of this level?
>>24219341I heard they used first gen avengers for iroc when dodge ran it in the 90s.The 2nd gen avenger looked like a caveman version of a charger and Sebring hate sex child.
IT'S FUCKIN HOTAND MY AC DOESN'T WORK
>>24219380Buy a car from the 60s, they have vents in the kick panels to blow into your shorts, and the smoker window for your face
>>24219396My car has this, but it doesn't blow into my shorts at all. I should build some sort of ass duct to go from the vent directly into my fly.
>>24219414You should find an ancient pair of JNCO jeans and use HVAC ducting with a quick release to make the ultimate swamp ass elimination rig
>>24219361>not working from homeNGMI
>>24219431I am not above this. I think JNCOs would be a step down from my current shamelessly out of fashion summer apparel though. But do I go for the kick panel vent or connect to an HVAC duct and use the blower?>>24219435A true /o/tist flogs his shitbox through all weather conditions
Redline me on first gen Cayennes, they are starting to become increasingly affordable in the current used car market.

Buying a highly depreciated unreliable luxury vehicle with expensive repair parts is for if you're a minority looking to gain social status with a luxury brand or if you're a car youtuber that will pay for the repairs by shilling hair restoration treatment or mobile pay-to-win games in your videos
>>24215882>old>lots of things to go wrong>really expensive when they do go wrong>somewhat known for failures being not too rare>drinks gas like few othersRunning cost are massive, that's why they are cheap.Stuff like brakes or tires may quickly cost eye-watering amounts if you've just bought a shitbox for 10k. Be aware what you're getting into and a clean example may be nice, if you like SUVs.
>>24216860Essentially, yeah. All the high earning jews (like my parents) just keep their expensive cars for eternity. They'd rather pay the residual value in new shocks and bushings than just buy a new one with a warranty lmao
