🚨 OFFICIAL GARAGE TORQUE ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
Today marks the annual service interval of our fearless leader, Nate.
After another 12 months of abuse, the diagnostics have revealed:
✅ Still running.
✅ Still surviving almost entirely on caffeine and bad financial decisions.
✅ Still convinced “it’s too cheap to leave there.”
✅ Still bringing home project cars that are somehow “an investment.”
⚠️ Check Marketplace addiction immediately.
⚠️ Wallet condition: Critical.
Without Nate there’d probably be no Garage Torque… or it’d just be the rest of us forgetting to hit record and talking s**t in a shed for two hours.
He’s the bloke answering messages at stupid o’clock, chasing guests, organising events, fixing problems none of us even knew existed, and somehow making this whole circus look like we know what we’re doing.
So today we’re prescribing:
🍺 A few cold beers.
🥩 A feed big enough to stop a V8.
🚫 No work.
🚗 At least one unnecessary Marketplace scroll (we know you’re gonna do it anyway).
💳 Absolutely no buying another project… actually, who are we kidding?
Do us a favour and fill the comments with birthday wishes—or roast him. Either works. He gives us enough s**t during the year, so today’s your chance to return the favour.
Happy Birthday, Nate! Thanks for keeping this s**tshow on the road and putting up with all of us idiots.
Love ya, brother. ❤️🍻
