A visible mechanical part (or multiple parts) of a [[car]], such as an [[engine]] or its part, a [[turbocharger]], a brake disc, transmission etc, excluding [[wheel]]s and fasteners ([[bolt (hardware)|]]s, [[screw]]s and [[nut (hardware)|nut]]s). The parts may be either removed from a car, or be installed on it, but be visible enough to properly identify, such as under the open hood, or exposed by design (such as in post #5877255).

Vehicle body parts (bumpers, fenders etc) count too, as long as they are removed from the vehicle at least partially.

Not to be confused with the similar tag [[mechabare]], which should be used for [[android]]s, [[mecha]]s and other robot-like characters.
