A cuple of questions...
Thinking of buying but I just know simple mechanic stuff (average Joe), so here´s my questions If I may...

- Is there a built In manual that shows you step by step how to rebuild a engine/frame? In case I get lost In the process.

- How many car/engine models are In the game, and are they actually different from each other?

Bonus question xD...

- Aside from rebuilding and racing, Is there anything else you can do?

Thank you.

Thank you Cr1spy for your reply and help.

Good enough although I saw on a three year old vid on YT someone looking through a In-game guide on the engine parts (build). Just though that It was still In the game.

This game has come on a hell of a long way in the three and a half years it's been on sale. You'd hardly recognise much of it from three year old YT vids.

As for the in'game manuals, yes they are there for chassis and engine, but they're still a work in progress (like much of the game) so are not totally complete in places.

Also, as Crispy has said there is plenty of help available on Discord if you ever get stuck.

Now combining both of the last two sentences, I've been playing since two weeks after release, and I'm also an ex-motorcycle mechanic. So yes, I know my way around the game pretty well.
I'm often on Discord too and will offer plenty of help and advice when I am around.
And going back to your comment about manuals.... if the in-game ones trip you up, them i have two comprehensive guides up here on Steam, and between the two of them it will walk you through and entire from-the-ground-up, step-by-step, build process for an entire stock Catfish - the original, and still used base car in the game.

So yeah, don't be deterred by a lack of mechanical knowledge. Everyone has to start somewhere, the This is the next best thing to doing it on a real car. Plus, if you do mess up, well it's just a game. It's not gonna set you back a couple of grand to get someone to rectify the faults for you! :D

So yeah, I say, don't delay. Buy today!


ps. Links to my guides, if you wanna take a look.

Thanks EssBee for your reply. Also thanks for sharing and all the effort putting together the above attached manuals. This will be of great help when needed.

Not much of a Discord guy I admit, but did add It to my list of Discord servers In case.

After reading your post I went and bought Wrench, just downloaded It now. I like the realisim seen so far and want to use It for learning. I mostly sim (rFactor 2, AMS 2, MSFS 2020 etc.) and as a older guy been playing for +20 years, there´s not many games that Interest me to much now days, but once In awhile something comes along my path.

I started playing these car survival games (Junkyard Truck, My Summer Car) and found My Garage which I really enjoy, then I found Wrench which Is above My Garage and started to be more Intrested In the topic. Tried CMS 2021 but quickly refunded as I don´t see the fun/learning In it and didn´t like the UI either.

So, hope to jump In to Wrench soon. Again, thank you EssBee for your help and guidence.
