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. Like other cars, it must be placed on a driveway.

Working on the body or engine builds Mechanical skill and 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, the car will become the Awesome Customized Car, and will be drivable. It can also be sold in Buy mode, and has an initial value of §5200. If Open for Business is installed, it can be sold in a business.

The skill gain rate for Mechanical is lower than the average for objects which increase this skill, which is 100, while the skill gain rate from the bookcase is 200.

The first time a Sim finishes restoring the car, he or she will get a special memory.

The finished car is a classic-style muscle car generally resembling a 1970 Dodge Challenger. It has the same comfort, energy, and fun stats as the Yomoshoto Evasion, even though its initial cost is less than the cost of a Smoogo Minima.
