It’s like a kit car. It comes with the chassis and engine all intact, technically street-legal. You just get to decide whether you want windshields and doors, which some people consider pretty obvious and too much of a hassle to pretend they’re “optional”
Hey! Gears changed by jamming a galvanized square steel pole into the floor is WAY more optimal than having a gear stick. Reduces weight, I may change gears often, but it’s not EVERY time.
(I do have the gear stick on anyways in case I forget how to use the steel pole properly, but that’s not the point!)
i’d personally liken it more to one of those flat pack jeeps. with a little technical know-how you can get something decently barebones going, of course with ample opportunity for fun!!
kit cars do vary, and there are some that would fit this pretty well, but i’d say much of them are like linux from scratch if anything.
you get a list of parts and stuff, and some instructions on putting it together, but at the end of the day (realistically past that and into the early morning in my experience with LFS :3) the builder is much relied on for the actual customization and patching of everything together!
I wouldn’t say that arch is nearly like that. Maybe you have to put on the doors and hood yourself or something maybe…
