I know some of us have worked on cars in odd places (carpark, side of I75, a stranger's drive-way) but I have visited Hong Kong for a couple of work trips and not only do they have expensive real estate/cars, but also a very eccentric car culture there with repairs.

If you guys have the time, there is a LS460 somewhere in these pictures. Gorgeous photography for an undervalued trade in a showboat of a city called Hong Kong. Worth the 3 minutes to scroll through the pictures next time you jump start a battery while cars whiz by you at 70mph that you're actually safer than some of these mechanics

So does a hotel parking lot count as weird???? Several years ago, bought a 1998 Camaro Z28 convertible off of ebay. Flew up to Connecticut to purchase the car, had to drive back to Nashville TN. Most of the first day was wasted at the airport, test drive, going to the bank, getting stuck in a 2 hour traffic jam somewhere near the NY/CT border for no damn reason. Anyways there was no way I could do the 1,000 mile drive in one day after being up at 4:00am to catch the early flight.

Stopped in Harrisburg PA for the night. Anyways, this car came with a cassette player stock. The previous owner had given me an extra factory headunit with a CD player, along with a bunch of other spare parts. He had never gotten around to putting it in. Being resourceful, I had checked a bunch of tools on the flight up there Still had 800 miles to go, not being able to play my music had already made me crabby the previous day. Swapped out the radio in the hotel parking lot, took like 20 minutes, super easy on that car, pop off the trim piece, 2 bolts, bam, new radio!!

Interesting article. Even more so for this Cuban wrencher.

Looks like an interesting shop dynamic, having so much buzz around you as you do your thing.

I can dig it.
