Frank, Congrats, can't wait to get the magazine and read the article. Glad to see people that you know get some print. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Guess I'll have to pick up a copy. Looks like a good article. Very cool Frankie. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif Frank...you must have had to go to the toilet pretty bad to stop in the Land of Misfit Toys !!! You probably disrupted the brain storming session on how to come up with another bogus car !!! Camaro anyone ? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

Actually Bob I interrupted a paint huffing session with a few exiled losers. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

Happy Mother's Day Frank...I see on the misfit forum you took 7 whiny little girls out for a lesson in manners. I'm glad to see you using your real name over there too, instead of trying to disguise yourself behind some ficticious alias username with a transparent agenda to deceive. Oh, and just so you know...if you're in the mood to sell that red Deuce, I'll get ya out of it before dark tomorrow for more than McClurg thinks it's worth.

Re: sYc members in print
 

I don't read or post on the rabbit's forum, but a couple of my buddies forwarded me a thread from that site that I find interesting, if not amusing. It's become personal now, so after this public defense of my integrity, I'll keep my remarks off line so as not to disturb the mood and agenda on either of the forum sites involved.

Posted by 68L35SS:
Well I will be, the head detective speaks!!! Hey SS, I would not have to get a new login on your piddly little site if your small minded and paranoid moderators hadn't wanted to hear any dissenting opinions and banned me!! Yeah I am talkin about 454 something or other. Why did he ban me? Was it who I associate with, or could it be that I outed a couple of his buddys obviously faked cars? Or could it be something else? Well only the shadow knows. If any of you people had the chutzpah to hear a dissenting opinion, instead of all those magpies singing, you would not have to ban so many people, and maybe the site would not be losing credibility as it is.
By the way SS, tell the world about your new Dick Harrell car. The Super Chevy magazine says you have a new one. Or could someone be not telling the whole truth on this either?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When, in the span of 4-5 hours one day last week, you use an assumed name to post on the sYc and email me at my personal email address, I naturally become curious about your motives. It was clear to me that your sYc forum post was meant to stir a pot that's already bubbling and the condescending email you sent me only confirmed your malicious intent to cast a calumnious aspersions about my car. Do you know anyone that displays their cars out in the sunshine more than I do? Do you know anyone that has ever witnessed, or even thinks I'm capable of misrepresenting any car in my collection at a show or in a magazine? In the case of the magazine article you refer to, I had 6 cars at the SuperCar Reunion last September...do you think there's any chance the writer inadvertently posted the wrong description under the picture of my RG COPO Camaro? Do you really think that meets the minimum to suggest that I personally misrepresented anything about that car? Stop it, Bill...you're making yourself look silly! As for your comments about fake cars, I think most people would concede that you have quite an imagination, so your opinion about any car's legitimacy probably deserves some skepticism. The sYc forum site has nearly 2,400 members and I only recall 6-7 site users being banned in the last 3 years. If you're on that list, then mathematically you represent less than one half of one percent of the membership. You apparently frequent the sYc forum site, so does that put in question your credibility? What color is the sky on your planet, Bill?

PS: I have a friendly relationship with a few of the folks that frequent and post on the rabbit forum board, so I hope all this nonsense doesn't create more acrimony than already exists. -SS

Do I need to magnifiy this photo to see the DH badges? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif Seems pretty plain as day to me and I claim to be no expert on Supercars.

Re: sYc members in print
 

Will someone inform some of these guys that Frank M. does not own The MOTiON & Chevrolet Display signs I had at Vettefest too. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

No Rick your safe. The signs are yours. But apparently in an upcoming issue of Musclecar Enthusiast your car belongs to Soupy Sales.

Re: sYc members in print
 

Steve, Any Show would welcome your collectin of Cars and we all know that. What really caught me off guard with that post is I guess he didnt check with Dave Libby who was at SCR7 to see how the car was displayed. I would bet that Dave never said your R/G COPO was displayed as a Harrell Car because IT WAS NOT!!! Does he really think that you would try to pass a COPO car off as a Harrell car esp with Mr Libby there!!!!

Re: sYc members in print
 

Some things in life never change, including mis-information in magazines. But, in defense of Bob McClurg, who I know does his best to get things right, and feels bad when an error occurs, he was under a lot of pressure the weekend of SCR7. He was surronded by over 75 very special cars, each with its own unique story, and only had two days to photograph them and gather info. This would be tough for anyone, but especially tough for Bob, as he was not aquanited with any of the owners.

Bob has told me that he is looking forward to shooting even more features at SCR8, and feels things will go a lot more smoothly, since he is now part of the sYc family.

Re: sYc members in print
 

Don't sweat it Steve. Those guys are a bunch of losers. I would say that 99.9% of them DON"T own supercars and a good percentage of them don't even own any car at all. Not that there is anything wrong with that because I have been there, but to bash the guys that do have them?? Why are they so jealous? Seriously? It is truly mind boggling. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

The funny thing is that there "leader" tried to go off on his own and FAILED MISERABLY!!! Now he claims that he is not even interested in supercars anymore! Could that be because you have alienated a $hit load of people that own them and they do not want to have anything to do with you anymore? The rest of them, ones that were banned, exiled, lost souls, who knows. Most of these guys are wrapped up in bad deals, fake cars, inner fighting, money, money, money, and have no true love for the hobby.

The sad part is that most people reading this have no idea what we are talking about and probably don't even care. I don't blame them. The bottom line is that the Yenko Sportscar Club is truly a great bunch of people. I bet a huge number of active members/posters can read this and honestly say that they have learned more than they ever have about these cars, obtained the car of there dreams, and met the best bunch of people they ever have in this hobby right here. I know I have and I bet those guys over there have through this site as well. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

Steve,

You're one of the nicest people that I've had the pleasure of emailing and PMing...Frank, you too! One day I'd actually like to meet both of you. As I've said in a few emails to you, I think that it's great that you display all of your cars for everyone to see, and that you share so much information and knowledge with everyone. That means that you are a CREDIT to the musclecar world. Not many collectors buy a huge rog at a cost of a lot of $$$, just so that they can display their cars all over the US...for all of us to enjoy. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I really must have missed something while I was away from the Musclecar hobby. When did people become so spiteful? What ever happened to people commenting on how nice a car someone has, rather than the ludicrous bashing that is going on between these two sites? I was directed to the post about Frank's car on the other site...and I just don't get it!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif His car is beautiful!

I've had the pleasure? of emailing and talking to a few of the people who are going off the deep end on the other site...what prompted all of this? They all seemed to be nice people.., probably still are. We all have to understand that emotions get the best of us sometimes, but HELLO...we're adults here...aren't we?

There is NO room in this totally cool https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/cool.gif hobby of ours for malicious posts...which are generated just to piss people off. If these people on this other site have nothing GOOD to say about someone or their car, why waste the time to say it?

Finally, having a difference of opinion about someone or something is fine...just be civil about it. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I guess I'm the eternal optimist. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Steve and all involved...have a great day...I know that I will!

Re: sYc members in print
 

I intentionally passed myself off as Frank in that article too! Too funny, 'much ado about nothing'.

Re: sYc members in print
 

Very good post Bruce. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

The funny thing is that members of the sYc have been getting bashed and bashed and have taken the route of turning the other cheek. This was good at first but has gotten old. Now it is time to set the record straight. They can invent a whole forum of bashing about us and it made a little dent but when we make one single post the effects are like an atom bomb.

For me anyway, hanging with you guys for a couple days each September in Collinsville is a highlight of my year. My daily trips to the board let me feel like it's not so long between visits.

https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

I can relate to Bob's problem of trying to get pictures of all the cars and keep them straight. The first year I did the CD I could manage it myself. The last two years I could never have done it without Rob's help. Do you think that Bob M. somehow got Steve's Green COPO confused with Kevin Suydam's RG Harrell COPO?

Re: sYc members in print
 

Maybe got me and Frank confused? What's the big deal, why make a federal case out of it?
(BTW; Frankie's younger, I'm better lookin!)

I'm gonna bet that a 69 COPO Camaro in "Metallic" green and a 70 Dick Harrell Camaro in "Metallic" green caused the confusion. No biggie, a just a typo. Anyone with a good set of glasses and a knowledge of Steve's collection should be able to figure that one out. Otherwise why would anyone feel it necessary to challenge the authenticity of his collection? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

Steve, The person you are responding to is insignificant in our arena. It appears his sole purpose is to stir the sh!t. He never provides any sustantiated proof, just innuendos. I never met him nor has anyone else on this site. His only role is to perpetuates rumors and skepticism; even when hard facts and documentation is provided. The only thing super he owns is his imagination.

I would disregard any and all of his communications, and not give any press to his feeble attempts to discredit members of this board.

This is ludicrous. Steve, why would YOU EVER feel the need to defend your integrity; especially considering the 'attackers'! So typical in today's world that those with the least to say speak the loudest.
We have a section in our local paper called "Open Line". It's more commonly known in the area as the Idiot Vent. Callers can make their opinions known about any topic, and remain anonymous. I can't imagine why any reputable publication would solicit such tripe, but I may have just answered my own question. If I wanted to read this garbage I would subscribe to the rags sold at the check-out at WalMart. Through "Open Line" some of our local public figures are beat up on a regular basis by people too cowardly to step out of the shadows and make themselves known. It's easy to criticize when you can hide behind anonymity. I'm very close to one of the targeted individuals. I try constantly to convince them for every one of the small minded individuals who voice their insignificant little negative opinions, there are a number of quiet supporters who rarely step up and offer a pat on the back for a job well done. I, for one, am trying to learn to offer positive comments when possible, and remain silent the rest of the time; walk the talk if you will.
That said, let me repeat. Mr. Sandlin, you have no call to defend yourself. Those who know you, or know about you, will never question 'Integrity'! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

One final comment; Frankie, you're a PUNK! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: sYc members in print
 

I just wanted to say congradulations Frank. I just picked up the latest edition of Chevy Rumble today, and what a great write up, and more importantly, what a great looking "authentic" 70 Yenko Deuce.
I will be attending SCR8 this year, and can't wait to see it in person. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
As for the other site, the one I shall remain anonymous, those guys are just plain jealous and not supercar/musclecar fans or owners, forget about them. The closest thing to a supercar they will ever own will be a clone.

If anybody is still looking for the June edition of Chevy Rumble, you can find it at Safeway and Hastings.
