I really admire those individuals who had the foresight to gather and compile information on the cars that are rare today. Without their vision we would be hooped. I have gathered info on Olds 442's with the W-30 package and have been doing it for 23 years are are nowhere close to what would be needed to go "public" with the info as others have been able to do with other margues (ie COPO). I and others gather this info because we have a passion for it, certainly not to get rich from it. I believe most of the "information gatherers" have other careers and would have to use a balance of their availabe time to devote to the hobby. Somewhere along the line we all get burnt out. I haven't spun a wrench since June when I finished a 3 year restoration that consummed 1500 hours. For the past 5 months I have been enjoying the open attitude of this forum and have learned a lot about Supercars, Royals,Hemi's and many other great brands. Its great break from spinning wrenches. You will see a write up of my cars soon in Members Rides. Thanks to all of you for your contribution,keep the info alive-whenever you have the time.
