I'm with Rick that you have to draw a line on when the old parts become too &quot;modern&quot; or were not available around the time the car was new. <span style="font-weight: bold">I personally feel the line should be drawn a the 2 year mark.</span> So that is my criteria, but if you used it around here- you would still be confused as it clearly has a different meaning to others.

Well, in that case I guess I can't run my Mickey Thompsons on my '62 anymore because they were made in '65. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

If you don't like &quot;Day-2&quot;, then just call them &quot;Warranty Delete&quot; cars! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Hey Verne,
Keep the Thompsons on it, it's a Day 3 car!!
