stringent, expensive smog regulations have done the rest of killing cheap cars in places like california. seller can't legally offload a car if it can't pass smog, so people have these 3000lb anchors that work fine except they need an 02 sensor in their front yards and the state will pay you $1500 to scrap it.
yeah, cost of labor is a nightmare on small jobs. honestly i could see an "uber for mechanics" popping up. anyone with a van full of tools, knowhow, and some spare time could fix a huge number of common car problems

Love to have to scrap my car after someone steals the catalytic converter.
