as of late there have been several examples which have put a microscope on 'the hobby'...
dealer fraud...
rebodied cars...
re-stamped parts...
forged documentation...
just a few examples, in my opinion you could not find a better group of people to trust and do business with than those people in general who have an interest in our hobby
sure you will find the occasional person or situation which points out inherent human weakness.
this is a hobby i enjoy and i choose to trust first and suspect later, albeit without blinders on jmo
