Speaking of which, is that Protoype-Challenge idea dead? Never grabbed the mod before the thread got killed.

Op here he says he has a $5k budget but would prefer to pay less so he can afford mods

Those are the biggest RWD cars I can think of. There were FWD sports cars as well if he doesn't mind looking at them.
When I started my newspaper delivery job in 2013, the distribution manager was pretty cool and laid back, having a full staff to work around the warehouse, getting shit together effectively, and keeping the pay fair for the size of the routes and the number of newspapers it gets every week.
She ended up getting fired at the end of 2014 for failing to keep people on two new routes she acquired from another branch.
The publication quickly found a new manager and she was quick in showing us how shitty she was; she lowered our pay and, being one big of a whale, hardly...

Looks like she's trying to save her own hide by charging the employees more and taking budget cuts.
I used to deliver meds until the owners switched. They were reducing pay per mile so I got the fuck out.

Vote with your feet and leave. Let your former coworkers know that you're doing better after leaving for greener pastures and watch that bitch get kicked to the skids. Alternatively, you could also try to unionize. Perhaps talk to your teamsters local and see if they'll support you in your efforts
>>14696731
Not sure you are, but in the US there are age and hour laws to prevent exactly this type of thing.
I would look into whatever department of labor options you have.
However, this is not /g/ related. Maybe >>>/biz/ ?
why not?
>>14696623
Depends on it's Nurbergring time. Maybe.

top speed of about 90-92 km/h with the limiter taken out of it, can reach a hundy downhill, also.
>>14696630
Faster than an ND probably.
Are the new Corollas as bland and dull as the old ones?
>>14696304
Old ones were less bland moron.
>>14696304
New ones can be fun too.

Anyone here know about car painting?
I've recently bought a car that I intend to fix up and sell for profit.
There were some rust spots which I've had welded.
But the problem came when I took it to a painter to paint over the spots that had been welded.
I know my car was painted using Hempel - a Norwegian ship enamel, by the original owner a long time ago, because I went back and asked him.
He said he used a brush to do it but I don't see any visible brush strokes.
He's too old to paint now.
The painter from the shop...

1.)Sell as is and don't worry about the paint
2.)Roll the dice, and try to respray over the fucking weird ass ship enamel and see what happens
3.)Roll the dice, and strip the weird enamel yourself and see what condition the body is in

As someone who's repainted a few cars with his dad (hr did most of the work because I was young and didn't really know what I was doing), I'd say go with #3. Use an orbital sander to take the paint off the body, then hand smooth it down, then prime it, then buy a Chinese knockoff paint gun and paint the body in the same color (an automotive paint store should be able to make the same paint the car came with stock). If you seal off the door gaps, the new paint should blend with the original paint in...

I should say, this should cost about $400 for price of paint and sandpaper and other materials, and it might not turn out well if you don't know what you're doing (runs or thin spots). So take those factors into account before you take my advice.
ITT: Cars that actually look good with lambo doors installed.

Those look like Camaro doors on it though.
>THE NEW FORD RANGE ROVER, FROM LINCOLN
Lincoln had the right idea coming out with the first ever luxury SUV. Then Ford fucked them with a shitty no power modular engine, and now there isn't even a v8 available.
>>14695957
this car is a meme
>>14695957
That picture just reminds me of the fact that Ford needs to get the fuck back in the minivan game.
They are high margin vehicles, and Ford could poach a shit lod of buisness off Chrysler/Dodge if they actually made a decent one
Guys is this worth it? are Mastobesh rare? He couldn't mean Mitsubishi could he?

I think he means "Mastorbate"

Now swap that drivetrain into a 2000-2005 Taurus for a gen 4 Taurus SHO. Same platform, should bolt in.
>>14695143
Unfortunately the week after said incident my dad sold the car to an old man with a pet monkey for $1500
