Talk:Restorable junk car

Changing the title
Can we change the title into "Junk car"? We may know that The Sims 3 has a car that it is almost similar to this one.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  09:34, July 12, 2014 (UTC)
 * Can it be restored? If it can be restored, can Sims drive it once it is restored? Dharden (talk) 11:41, July 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, it is a restorable car. Very similar to One's Man Junk Car, but with more interactions.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  11:43, July 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * I wasn't aware of that. Write it up. I'll see about renaming once I am more awake and coherent -- it's early AM here-- but I think the title "One Man's Junk Car" should be kept as a redirect. Dharden (talk) 12:01, July 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * No big deal then, however I'll finish for tomorrow but I'm almost finished the details about TS3 version, just polishing and adding some pictures to fix up.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  12:05, July 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Will look once I am more awake, have had shower, coffee, etc. Dharden (talk) 12:16, July 12, 2014 (UTC)

What does the Classically Cool Fixer-upper Car resemble?
I'm not a car person, and even less of an old-car person, so all I can tell is that it's some sort of roadster. Dharden (talk) 13:10, July 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * I saw some of these resemble to this in my country (the Americans brought these to here), though I don't know the name. However I know that this car is between 1920's-1940's or 50's.  .ThePeculiarMe  |  (talk to me)  |  (my mistakes)  13:14, July 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * I can tell that it's "period" for Roaring Heights, and the 1950s is a bit late for that. Beyond that, it could be anywhere from 1920s to early 1940s. Dharden (talk) 14:39, July 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * It looks like it could be a Duesenberg Model J, which was built from 1928-1937. I think it looks very close to the 1930 J Walker La Grande Torpedo Phaeton. Icemandeaf (talk) 15:54, July 13, 2014 (UTC)

Store fixes required?
While looking for more info, I came across a Google search-snippet that said: "NOTE that the Sky High Rollercoaster and the Classically Cool Fixer Upper Car require the "Store Fixes" to work ..." The link is to a page on Facebook, and I don't follow Facebook links. However, more searching led to this thread at MATY -- but what I know about the in and outs of Sims 3 content could be inscribed on the head of a pin. Dharden (talk) 15:04, July 13, 2014 (UTC)
 * Every time a new premium content is released, people at MATY claim that they need a fix in order for the content to work properly. I know for sure the fix is intended for the decrapped stuff, but I don't know if the legit fresh-from-the-Store stuff still needs the fix. All premium contents require an up-to-date ccmerged.package, though.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:08, July 14, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Nikel. Nona explained it in a way I can pretty much follow -- even at 7:30 am with minimal caffeine. I posted that because I wasn't sure what to make of it beyond a warning to beware the Jabberwock and shun the frumious Bandersnatch. Dharden (talk) 11:35, July 14, 2014 (UTC)
