Pulled out the old Singer to fix some pants today. What a beautiful manual machine that is. I don't know if they even make stuff like this anymore. Hopefully bitcoin can bring beautiful quality stuff like this back to market!
I've been watching videos of a guy bringing cars and trucks from the early 1900's back to life.
Yesterday, I was trying to imagine someone 100 years from now trying to get a 2025 vehicle running. I highly doubt it would happen without modding it to not require most of the sensors, computers, etc.
I've been (mentally) planning the idea of a kit car that is "basic transportation", instead of a Morgan or Lambo look-alike, with the goal that it's all repairable, and a template for custom gagetry of the owner's choosing.
It's entirely possible. I'd love to see it happen. Maybe I can get the ball rolling in a few years after I clear some other hurdles.
