|desc = Have you dabbled with some of the small creations available from Mechanically Minded? Are you ready for some more? Are you ready for the motherlode? One Man's Junk Car is Mechanically Minded's biggest do-it-yourself "kit" - a run down car, in need of a new engine and body work. All it needs is a little affection and elbow grease. Must place on driveway.
}}
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 -- making800—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.
 
Working on the car builds [[Mechanical]] skill, though only half as quickly as studying, and also builds enthusiasm for the [[Tinkering]] hobby. Two Sims can work on the car at the same time, if one works on the body while the other works on the engine. If the car is not being worked on, a Sim can rev the engine. When the car is fully restored, the player can click on it and select a paint option. After the Sim has finished painting the car, it will become the '''Awesome Customized Car''', and will be drivable. If the Sim had not previously finished restoring a car, he or she will also get a special [[Memories|memory]].
