:::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. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 12:01, 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. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk: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.

::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. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 14:39, July 13, 2014 (UTC)
:::It looks like it could be a [[Wikipedia:Duesenberg Model J|Duesenberg Model J]], which was built from 1928-1937. I think it looks very close to the 1930 J Walker La Grande Torpedo Phaeton. [[User:Icemandeaf|Icemandeaf]] ([[User talk: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 [https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?id=110924105707074&story_fbid=394233757376106 a page on Facebook], and I '''don't''' follow Facebook links. However, more searching led to [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=21330.1125 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.

: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 [http://nonasims.wordpress.com/2012/05/17/dcbackup-ccmerged-package-and-your-premium-content-items/ ccmerged.package], though.

::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.
