Hello! Don’t know if this is the right community to post this question, but maybe you can help.

I want to learn about cars and engines. I’m a pretty mechanical person and I like to tinker. I can do basics, like changing my own oil etc.

I want to do some hands on learning, but I don’t have a ton of money to spend or space to work in. I was wondering if you had suggestions on something small and affordable I can get to learn about engines. I was thinking a lawn mower or a scooter but I don’t know how similar those would be to a car.

Do you have any advice?

    As an Old Car Haver myself, I would definitely not recommend someone learn on one unless finding parts is very easy. Maybe something like a Mustang or Camaro, but definitely not anything like a Studebaker or Oldsmobile. And unfortunately, the popular cars they still make parts for don’t come cheap.
