Re: 'Survivor' Term Comes Under Fire
The term "Survivor" has become a generic term for an unrestored / original car. It seems as though they have waited a little too long to defend their brand. If it was trademarked they would have had to rigorously defend their brand/trademark or else they lose it. Styrofoam was a brand/trademark for the generic expanded polystyrene. It was lost because the company did not defend it when others used in the generic.
