    I will refuse to call most cars made in the 80s or later “vintage” even though that’s the technically correct word. “Garbage”, yes. It’s just not the same when it’s just a shitbox full of dry-rotting composites and plastics. Older cars were something you wanted to keep around. Modern “old” cars are something you’re embarrassed to be driving around in.

      It was easier to reach the 1980s than most for TimeSquirrel.
