The restorable car must go through several stages before it can be used. There are two sections that must be worked on before you can paint the car; the engine and the body. When working on the engine, watch out for explosions as they cause the sim to stop working. When working on the body, you don't have to watch out for explosions but take care as this project really drains their needs. Once both parts are finished, choose a colour to paint the car. After that, it becomes a fully functional car that acts like the cars from The Sims 2: Nightlife. | |||

Image:TS2FT CarEngine.jpg|The engine of the car | |||
Image:TS2FT CarKnockOut.jpg|Watch out for these | |||
Image:TS2FT_RevEngineBad.jpg|The smoke means more work needs doing | |||
Image:TS2FT 2OnCar.jpg|If it gets too hard, get another sim to help you | |||
Image:TS2FT RevEngineGood.jpg|If the engine looks new, it means it's fixed | |||
Image:TS2FT CarBody.jpg|Once the engines complete, work on the body | |||
Image:TS2FT CarBody1.jpg|The body looks better but still needs improvement | |||
Image:TS2FT CarBody2.jpg|Work into the night if you have to | |||
Image:TS2FT CarBody3.jpg|Give your car the finishing touch | |||
Image:TS2FT CarPaint.jpg|Choose a coat of paint for your car | |||

Interactions | |||
*Work on...:Choose between the body and the engine. The engine has three stages of completion but little explosions can knock your sim out of working on the car. If this happens, reperorm the interaction. The body has four stages of completion but your sim will work non-stop if their needs stay high enough. | |||
*Rev Engine: Sim gets in the car and tests the engine out. The effects correspond to the three stages of completion. Smoke means the engine is still in its first stage and no smoke indicates the second stage. The third stage is indicated by the completion of the engine. | |||
*Paint...:Select a colour to complete the car. If you don't like the colour you can actually re-decorate the car anytime you wish. After the car is painted, it spawns all the interactions as the cars introduced in The Sims 2: Nightlife. You can also sell the car, if you own Open for Business, on a business lot. | |||
