MODERATORS
Fun fact: at least one of the mods of this community is a car guy.
One of the many great things about my "daily driver" being a bicycle is that all my cars can be project cars, instead of having to get rid of them to own something boring and reliable instead.
Frankly, I think the overlap between anti-car-dependency urbanists and car enthusiasts is a lot bigger than people give it credit for. It's the normie commuters who see cars as an appliance and can't imagine an alternative who are the problem.
That was always my dream if I lived more rurally. Imagine having a garage so big that you could work on several cars all the time!
As it turns out I found more interesting things to build and fix, so my peak “car guy” was like 17 and I never did anything more complex than replace brakes and springs

Would it be alright still if we just wheeled a guillotine in front of your house anyway? It would be purely a symbolic gesture, but I'm sure people will bring beer and will want a quick tour of your cars, and uh yeah we'll see how far the party goes
