The Meet

A car meet, not a feed.

A small morning meet on a pale asphalt lot: a green sports car in front, an older one with its hood up, and 1960s coupes behind.

Read other people’s cars with the paperwork attached.

Other people’s cars, with the receipts.

Search, filter by make, decade or story grade, and sort by most recent or alphabetical. That is the whole ordering.

Cards appear here only after their owner publishes one. Two of these six are fictional demonstrations and say so on every screen they appear on. A credited shop is a name the owner recorded, which is attribution — not a claim we checked.

What is missing, on purpose

by design
  • No likesNothing on a card counts approval.
  • No followsYou browse cars, not people.
  • No commentsThere is nowhere for a stranger to argue with your paperwork.
  • No rankingMost recent or alphabetical, and that is the list.

Every other place you show a car turns into a scoreboard within a year. The Meet has no counter to climb, so there is nothing to farm and no reason to post a car twice. What a stranger can do here is read what you documented and follow the work back to the shop you credited.

Your pins, your companion and your workspace theme stay in your garage. The Meet itself is locked to the sober workbench: it ranks nothing and counts nothing, for everyone.

A car gets here by way of a card you built line by line.

The public card is the only way onto The Meet, and you assemble it yourself: photos, events, parts, shops, badges, the name and the story grade. Each one is an inclusion you make, not an exclusion you remember to make.

Step one — photos

Four photos selected

Five stay in the record and out of the card.

The card as a stranger loads it. No cost, no address, no VIN — see below.

The six things a stranger should read first.

Every one of them is derived from the record and says where it came from. A badge that cannot cite an event does not exist.

Optional categories
DynoTrackShow

Off by default. Some cars have a dyno sheet; most do not, and a category nobody filled in is worse than no category at all.

Badges come from what is in the record. Never bought, never awarded by us.

The public version is a different object.

Nothing in the record is one setting away from being public. The card is built from the parts you picked, and the struck rows were never part of it.

Not the private record with a setting flipped. A separate thing, built from the parts you picked.

The sticker is a print file, and it is the same file the app makes.

Pick your die. Provory writes the file — a 76 mm windshield round or an 80 × 74 mm shield, vector, with a live QR that opens your card. Printing it is yours. We do not print anything and we do not ship anything.

The Sunday Wrench windshield round for the 1994 coupe: a dark navy disc with an orange rim, the Provory mark, a QR code, the vehicle name, and the lines scan the public story and proof stays close.

The code resolves to the card, not to a copy of it. Revoke the link and the sticker on the glass stops working with it, which is the point of printing one at all.

Four surface treatments

A treatment repaints the sticker and nothing else. The trust chips and the proof language are identical on all four, because what the card says is not a matter of taste.

Sunday Wrench

Graphite, signal orange, warm shop light.

Night Meet

Deep navy, cool proof blue, after-dark contrast.

Heritage

Racing green, aged stock, restrained brass.

Track Day

Technical white, graphite, red timing marks.

Eight files, straight out of the exporter, shown here so you can see what the shelf holds. Any one card downloads its own five: a plain QR PNG, and its round and shield dies as SVG and PDF. The vehicle name on each one is the name on that card, and the QR is live — these are not drawings of stickers.

You ask the shop. The shop confirms the job.

Eligible service and installation events only. A shop confirms the work it did, not the condition of the car, and we do not verify shops ourselves.

Not live yet

Shops cannot attest yet, so nothing on The Meet carries a confirmed job today. The flow below is built and the screen is real; what is missing is the shops.

The report is built from the same events as the record, so it cannot say a year went better than the paperwork says it did. A quiet year reads as a quiet year.

I forgot I did the whole front end and the brakes in the same spring. The report is the only reason I know that.

An owner’s recollection, kept as a recollection. It is not evidence and nothing on the record moves because of it.
