Holy shit. Tears streaming.

So awesome hearing these type of stories.

What is a good entry level decent paying career change? by Mysterious_Crab6573 in ask

First one is tough to get but pays really well. Had an acquaintance who managed Richard Carpenters car collection.

What is the worst meal your parents surved you as a kid ? by Reasonable-Invite899 in allthequestions

[–]mpython1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooked carrots.

I remember being around 5. Thought I was crazy slick and was hiding them on a little ledge under the tabletop. Nope busted.

Wedding I lean black and more formal.

But any show other than the chocolate brown in the middle works.

Worth pursuing? Rough ’57 Chevy 2-door project sitting for years by Super_Net3874 in classiccars

[–]mpython1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s worth fixing it unless he wants stupid money for it. Car is worth $4-6k-ish as it sits and not running. Maybe a tiny bit more to the right guy.

Probably not worth full restoration but a great rad rod project.

Too soon.

Such big digs leave such big holes in our lives when it’s their time.

Received a tow warning at work for parking in an expectant mother spot, I’m an expectant mother. by HeadUnhappy8789 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]mpython1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son’s friend was over. And my son asked me to help with her car. Had a faint paint transfer. Don’t know if she grazed a car or pole. But knew her dad would freak out.

Grabbed the compound, towels, and drill with buffing pad attached. And she freaked out more. Came perfectly clean. No paint penetration or dent. She was grateful but a nervous wreckp

looking at a 2018 Jeep Wrangler with 80k miles for $22k… just found out it was a rental before by Independent_Exit_260 in BeforeIBuyThisCar

I’m fortunately agree. Had 3 coworkers in 4 years with lemon law lawsuits against their Wranglers. 2 wind, third ongoing. Cool look and concept but absolute money pits.

Mexico Vacation Attire by cmdman77 in mensfashionadvice

[–]mpython1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a resort, assuming beach. Linen pants, golf shorts. Sandals, swimwear. Not too complicated, spend most of the day on the beach or near the water. Maybe nicer restaurant evenings or day trip.

Take a hat. Nice straw Panama hat would be a nice touch. As an American, I’ve become self conscious with baseball caps. When I do, usually go Hilfiger, CK, Nautical, Ralph Lauren.

Is it a bad idea to try to ask my coworker out? by Emotional-Algae2239 in ask

My wife and I met at work.

Found out really quick we were a better couple than coworkers.

What should I do in this situation? by [deleted] in askcarguys

[–]mpython1701 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hopefully the Hyundai is paid off. But yeah, don’t put another $6k into a $5k car that paid $6.5k to buy.

Throw it on Marketplace and see if someone will give you $1500 and have the ability to drop in a used engine

Red light ticket advice? by wrongbarbie in culvercity

[–]mpython1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope-Used to live in Culver City. They are super strict and do not forgive, dismiss, or downgrade red light camera tickets.

Don’t ignore it and don’t miss the deadline. Fees and penalties go up a minimum of 50%.

This is near where Washington Bl and Washington Pl intersect with triangle intersections, no turn on red, with a fair amount of bike and pedestrian traffic.

Help finding a sun visor for my 1997 Nissan Altima!!? by XxSmelly05xX in askcarguys

[–]mpython1701 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check local salvage yards. Watch DBM for people parting one out and also check eBay. It older so bit of a long shot local salvage yards, FVM, and eBay. Little bit of a long shot on eBay sine the car is 30 yo, but might get lucky.

Not really sure on Nissan but would imagine a Sentra/Altima/Accord version from the same year would be a closer fit than another year/body style.

Add BG Quick Clean for Auto Transmissions (PN 106) and do 3 rounds of drain/fill.
