Default Re: 1967/1968 Dick Harrell funny cars

Charley, this thread is going NOWHERE. Instead of "moderating" guys that are sick of it why don't you pull the plug on the whole thing? Their have been literally almost 30,000 views and hundreds of replies between the two sites and I think that we have all made our minds up by now. At this point it seems to be between just Greg & Tom now. Maybe they should take it offline?

I think this is an interesting discussion. If anyone doesn't like what's being said here or doesn't like the way the thread is being handled, DON'T READ IT. Greg has asked a lot of very valid questions and made a lot of vaild points. But he has also made a lot of assumptions based on what he thinks Dick Harrell would or should have done. Since Dick Harrell is no longer around, you can't assume you know why he did what he did. I don't think that Greg has a vested interest in this car. He is just studing the evidence placed before him. He has probably done more research on this car in the last several days than anyone has since the car was found. Yet some of you guys want to laugh and make jokes about him and what he has done. Right now he seems to be the only one that even cares if the car is the Harrell car or not.
Tom, as for your messages saying they think you car is the real deal, that is to be expected. Your friends and the supercar crowd here are going to back you until they are proven 100% wrong and some may still back you then. Greg and a most of the others that openly say they don't think your car is the Harrell car are all outsiders and not one of the "guys." So naturally they are going to be given a hard time. For me, there are a couple of the "guys" on here that I always respected but have now lost a lot of respect for them because of some of the comments they have made. From the evidence that I have seen posted, I think there is very little chance that you have the Harrell car. That's a shame because I thing you have a very nice piece of vintage racing histore no matter who's car it was.
