And just where might those becoming from? Hum...

Not to be an ass..but I frankly don't like the implacation...Actually off the 'net..using "Google" by back tracking the races DH ran..maybe if you had researched the car you have YOU would have had these pics...but I know the guy TOLD you it is a DH car...

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?

Oh and BTW in all Gregs novel size posts where nothing seems to be getting accomplished what happened to this? Come on guys let's put a fork in it..........

Well no offense the last time I checked there wasn't a Jesus among anyone here..You guys come off like this how the hobby is supposed to be..when in actuality you are soo far removed from it in a lot of cases. It is supposed to be about having fun and being able to engage in discussion that teaches, entertains, and is meaningful. However that isn't done here..instead you put yourselves, your collections, and your pompous attitudes above others and it shows. Don't believe me..go to other sites and read some of the post..not from people you kicked off, but from people that came here looking for an answer or to see some really cool cars and read some of the post..I'm done with this website and the attitudes here..You guys are soo blinded that you validate and hold everyone's car to a higher standard yet can't do the same for a member..no matter who he is...All I've heard is how "those" guys were so bad..how they caused problems, etc..Well maybe they do and maybe they are asses who knows..BUT when THIS website and members here had a chance to apply the same attitudes, criteria,etc to a members car they couldn't..NO MAKE THAT WOULDN'T.....that is the travesty to me...the visible double standard that is here..

Please remove my profile from your site. I would like to be able to come here and view post as there are some great guys with tons of knowledge. I do not to be able to post here or contribute any idea, knowledge or thought I have. This is my own wish.

Respectfully,

G S "Gregory" "Greg" "Gregg" "G Dog" (old Marine name..)Carlson..that's for you Shauger..guess it makes you feel better..get a life..you were much cooler when you were "Steve Shauger..Camaro guy" instead of "Steve Shauger Yenko owner"

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.

You misssed the point of my post. It was not if folks thought my car was real or not, it was whether the pictures posted on page 12?, 2 of the burgundy car and 2 of the R/B car. I asked the question, are they the same body? The tally now? About 15-1 that there they are two seperate bodies.

No offense..but I would venture the people saying 2 bodies are people with stars by their names..Also if you truly wanted to put this to bed..why don't we find an expert in the field of pics..

Just curious but how do you explain having a car...his first car..and only being able to find 1 or 2 pics of it..Don't you think if he had 2 cars there would be more pics of "your" car out there..After all we can find dozens of pics of a car that you say is car "2"..

What about the noticeable rocker area of both the pic you claim is "your" car and the Manhart car..you have never addressed that..

I am specifically asking you what you make of that???

..it appears to be in the exact same area of your car...nor the lock cylinder issuse, nor the windows not being glassed in.., nor the tail lights being bolted in..

Send me a number and I'll call you..and we can discuss

You do not how much I would give to know the answer to that, and to have more pictures of the Red/Black car.

You requested your profile and forum membership be deleted 5-6 pages ago claiming you have no bias in this topic. Now you come out with insults and disparaging remarks about everyone/anyone that supports this forum site. There are a lot of people that proudly support this site, and you're apparently proud you don't...so, no offense...I'll ask again in your behalf...Can one of the mods please terminate Greg's forum registration and delete his profile?
