minus-squareDelphia@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·5 hours agoWhy arent people buying more cars from the 70s? Parts and servicing is a big problem now. A lot of shops wont touch anything they cant plug a diagnostic computer into. Some parts are made of unobtanium and require complex workarounds or paying through the nose for parts.
