Help, Ive locked myself out of my 93 mustang. I dont have a slim jim. Does anyone know how to get into it?
Bust a window
Buy a better car or dont be a fuck head i know its hard for Americans but try your hardest.

Take a pry bar and lightly pry open the top of the door. Find a tool to open the lock, if it is one with just a rod in the door there's a knot you can tie that will grab and hold it
What does this smell like /o/?
An armpit
Like a janitor trying to clean a dirty locker room by dumping chemicals all over the floor and then mopping it all up leaving a repulsive but rather soothing scent.
>>14676804
like male perfume
french male perfume
>referring to snow tires as "winter boots"
>washing your car is "giving her a bath"
What pretentious things do you hate that "car guys" say?
When people refer to their cars as "she" or "her".
Cars aren't animate objects.

I don't care about "she" or "her" but when it's "my baby" that is where I draw the line.

Why is it that every car built after 1980, even if it's subtle, have an inclined beltline? Is it an engineering thing, or does everyone but me think it looks better?
IDK, why do all new cars have a 1" flat part around the wheelwell radius
>>14676231
>>14676237
Probably related to safety standards.
I guess that's just a thing that exists, huh. Never even really noticed.
How much should I pay for an original, low mleage '81 BMW 320i sport?
Been looking for a good handling car that's not Japanese. Pic kinda related.

Literally nothing has been changed on the car.
So, the trans in my truck is messed up, and I cannot for the life of me figure it out. (4L60E)
The truck just stopped having any drive or reverse gears out of the blue one day, and I had to have it towed home. Fluid level is good, no signs of any other issues.
The truck sat for a week and a half, and I went to go see if it would move, and both drive and reverse worked, but only for a few feet.
If the truck sits over night, I can move it around the yard, but no more than that, and I am completely lost as to what the issue could be.
I had my eyes...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

Get the tranny flushed out...you probably have a hunk of something inside...the 4l60e's are almost bulletproof, so unless it's pissing fluid out everywhere, it should be good...
when it does drive, how does it drive?
no slipping?
also how are you checking the level? it should be way over full while cold and not running, and at full only while idling in neutral
>>14676263
if it's way over full when cold and off, then you start it and the level stays consistenly over full it would make me think your oil pump isn't working i.e. the fluid stays in the pan and not circulating
My cousin has a 1966 cadillac fleetwood limo sitting in the back yard and wants to sell it to me for $300 it did run when they parked it like 2 years ago but it hasn't been cranked since. Body is flawless other than some rust near the bottom of the doors, all windows are good, all accessories and chrome are present. Do i buy this thing or is it just asking to be a money pit forever. I kinda want it just for a weekend hobby, or maybe driving people around. Pic related but obviously not the same car.
>>14676026
where would you put a limo
You could sell it for more bruh

Just bought a 2001 Toyota Yaris as a first time car. Bought it forr a bargain at $1200 and only 40K miles. Anyone can give their opinion on this car, and reliability, safety, economy ect
>>14674429
As a first car, you done well. Look after her, and she'll look after you.
Whats her name?
either Felecia, Shaniqua, or Kate still deciding
>>14674429
My mom had a 1.5 t-sport.
It's shit. Horrible seating position, horrible at even moderate speeds, horrible on the motorway and a fucking danger to take a corner at speed.
The gearbox was also shit.
I need new tyres, lads
Continental or Bridgestone?
Bridgestone s04 pole positions if you want a gud summer tire
>>14674287
Pilot super sports or kill yourself
meme tires or no tires
>>14674287
Neither. Michelins.
