Description
I gave https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1837765562 a sub because I didn't have any cars yet and this one looked kinda cool.

This one was a bit ... Wierd... It was rigged as a single speed and the throttle drove both the engine directly (still does) and the clutch at the same time. And then it had twelve small generators for WTF.... (I drive a whole shunter locomotive with a single small generator so I'm like !!!)

The author admitted to knowing not about gearboxes so I threw a basic Lo-Hi autoshifter into this one and gave it ratios based on the classic Powerglide automatic transmission. I'm publishing it as a tutorial for the original author and whomever it can benefit. My control modules are purple and my structural changes white.

To drive it, get in, release the parking brake, lean into the throttle a bit (If you can bypass Steam's screwups, gamepad is kinda nice) then mash the starter. On gamepad, the starter is button A, which is really nice, It's quite enjoyable to drive unless you drive super fast and it will go into a spin for some reason, dunno why.

Update: Added cats to the exhaust pipes to try to tame the smoke a bit. Added a fuel port, it is at the front of the engine, painted orange. Find the hose in the trunk LID, open the trunk and look up. Still performs too well for its own good, drives best with a light foot, just don't let it get away from you.
