Restorable junk car: Difference between revisions

The '''One Man's Junk Car by Mechanically Minded''' is a hobby object featured in ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]''. It is found in the Hobbies/Miscellaneous section of [[Buy mode]], and costs §800 -- making it the cheapest vehicle in the game. Like other [[car]]s, it must be placed on a [[driveway]]. While an unfinished car can be placed in a Sim's [[inventory]], it remains linked to the driveway section it was on, and that driveway section is still considered to be "in use" by the car. The unfinished car can be placed back where it was, and Sims can continue working on it, but no other car can use that spot.
