OT: Thank god I don’t live in sacramento

I had to look it up. But apparently it’s illegal to work on your own cars in Sacramento in your own garage…

Sacramento County Says It’s Illegal to Work on Your Own Car in Your Own Garage

Poor guy…
“He wanted to work on an old car in his yard. Now he owes $573K in Sacramento code violations”

yea cities/counties can be much worse than HOA’s sometimes.

PITA

good lord, those stories are big numbers. Need to be careful if you live up there.

Yeah I would be screwed…

Saved about $2500 doing my valve cover and oil filter gaskets on the N55 motor…

I only broke 3 things that is glueable, and lost 1 socket by dropping it into a a bottomless pit in the engine bay… $7 replacement, really sad e12 socket is going to be lonely there.

Look how clean my engine is now 🙂 Can’t do it in Sacramento…

Is it a major repair if the engine stays IN the car? LOL.

Do it with the garage door closed and no one will know. Maybe that is the point of the ordinance.
