paceme, Jim R also follows the ORIGINAL forum at
www.nastyz28.com. I'm thinking he isn't a big fan of the trailer queen cars, Carlisle judging, and anal judges like me. Judged shows and judged cars arent for everybody.......
FYI, Jim R recently did a personal favor for me in Phoenix. I'm publically acknowledging him, as I do appreciate his act of friendship.....

Chuck, I enjoy the cars that have been taken to "anal" levels and certainly appreciate those, yourself included, that actually TRY to document & judge "the way they were". "Trailer queens" are beautiful works of art. I respect and painfully appreciate the sacrifice that has occurred to get them to those levels. I appreciate them as much as the time capsules that are not "perfect" and as much as the barn finds that have been used to within an ounce of their life, they all are exciting to look at and read about.
"Making light" of the way that the GM line workers assembled cars in hap hazard methods 30+ years ago is a release from the sometimes all too serious outlook we all are guilty of with this old car passion.
No disrespect is meant to those that have those beautiful cars, we ALL enjoy them.
