#asknostr Are there any car people here? This is my 1985.5 Porsche 944. I’ve owned it for five years and I’m the third owner. I have an incomplete but good history on it, including the original buyer’s order and window sticker. It’s what you would call a survivor car; entirely original. It came well optioned with AC, cruise control, sport seats, offset Fuchs wheels and a limited slip differential. I’ve been driving and wrenching on it since the day I bought it. I tend to lay it up for a few months each winter and get into stuff. This winter I rebuilt the brake system, replaced the shocks, removed cleaned and resealed the transmission, and installed a short shifter. Owning and driving this thing absolutely delights me. It’s not fast but boasts a 50:50 weight distribution across the front and rear wheels, so it gives whatever I ask of it on a twisty country road. It’s happiest between 4500-6500 RPM. The seats are superb, making it enjoyable for long trips. I think it’s so great that I’m teaching my kids how to drive in it. #porsche #classic #car image

GM. Recently, I removed the transmission from my car to install a short shifter and reseal it. These two things amount to about fifteen minutes of work. To me though, the job isn’t done until I have thoroughly cleaned it and everything I can reach under the car while it’s out. I try to approach every single task I do throughout the day in this way. If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right. Have a nice day. 🫡

GM. What’s with the tiny, crappy tools that come with every single thing we buy now? If you need a stamped piece of steel pretending to be a wrench in order to put together your car dollies, maybe what you need isn’t a set of car dollies? image

GM and Happy New Year. Yesterday I made black eyed peas, as I do every year, but I added habanero peppers to invite more orange into our year. 🫡
