Repair & Salvage
The aim of this mod is to let you repair and fix up your vehicle(s) and will bring more focus and choices for the mechanics and metal welders amongst us
-with a shortage of working cars on some servers you can now fix up what you find -have a mechanic in your group? put their skills to use -collect cars and restore them to their former glory -learn your craft and progress, become that master mechanic you always wanted to be -grab your blowtorch and break down many vehicle parts into useable items -salvage the complete vehicle for many useful items depending on your skill -compatible with all vehicle additions on the workshop

Repair your ride
Use varying parts to restore your ride -start easy changing tires then with seats, have some duct tape, sheets, glue, a spring? you can repair it! -Parts have a lot more uses now, from metal bars and springs to rebuild the suspension, light bulbs for light, fabrics for seats and good old duct tape for many minor fixes -Screws and metal for moderate fixes but progress to using a blow torch and your repairs will be solid!

Salvage of Vehicle and Parts
Salvage parts from one vehicle and use the pieces to repair other parts on other vehicles
Grab your blow torch and mask to break down vehicle parts into useable items!
Salvaging Vehicle parts could provide you with several items in return! Tear up those old stinky seats and you'll have a chance of gaining those dirty Rags, Leather, Denim or Thread! Grab your blowtorch and mask, uninstall those beat-up doors and salvage them for a chance of Metal Sheets, Screws, Small Metal Sheets or even Electronical Scrap! Enjoying those mods that introduce Roof Racks? Well now you can salvage those too! Each Vehicle part can be salvaged with a chance of gaining up to three salvaged items depending on your Mechanic and Welding skills.
Salvage Vehicle is now included
Right click on a vehicle and choose "Salvage Vehicle"
This option is available once you have Metal Working skill 4 or above, Mechanics skill 3 or above and requires 10 propane units and a Welders Mask. You can salvage all vehicles except Wrecks*. This option will completely salvage and remove the vehicle clearing the path. Depending on your Metal Working skill, you will salvage the vehicle faster and receive many useful items the higher your skill. I do recommend removing as many parts of the vehicle as you can and empty the vehicle before salvage of the vehicle body. This will give you vehicle parts to use, further salvage options for those parts and your character will have gained more knowledge about vehicles and gained more skill XP in Mechanics and Metal Working.
The Vanilla option for *dismantle wreck option is also still available (only for wrecked vehicles), takes less time but your returns are smaller and less varied with less XP too.
The better you are at Mechanics or Metal Welding will mean your talents will produce better results from the Salvage! A Mechanic knows the parts he wants, gaining skills in Metal Welding means he can better acquire those parts.

Many Vehicle mods on the workshop are already supported with this mod ! The list below are some of my favs

Compatibility
The old repair system is good with everything (disabled in sandbox options by default)
The new repair system may conflict with mods that overwrite ISFixAction or ISFixVehiclePartAction such as PM2 - Complete Repair Overhaul
**Place this mod after any vehicle mods or towards the bottom of your mod order for best results**

NOTES
For now I suggest the "Easy Heater Repair" and "Easy Lightbar Repair" mods. (B41)
