Steve,

You're one of the nicest people that I've had the pleasure of emailing and PMing...Frank, you too! One day I'd actually like to meet both of you. As I've said in a few emails to you, I think that it's great that you display all of your cars for everyone to see, and that you share so much information and knowledge with everyone. That means that you are a CREDIT to the musclecar world. Not many collectors buy a huge rog at a cost of a lot of $$$, just so that they can display their cars all over the US...for all of us to enjoy.

I really must have missed something while I was away from the Musclecar hobby. When did people become so spiteful? What ever happened to people commenting on how nice a car someone has, rather than the ludicrous bashing that is going on between these two sites? I was directed to the post about Frank's car on the other site...and I just don't get it!! His car is beautiful!

I've had the pleasure? of emailing and talking to a few of the people who are going off the deep end on the other site...what prompted all of this? They all seemed to be nice people.., probably still are. We all have to understand that emotions get the best of us sometimes, but HELLO...we're adults here...aren't we?

There is NO room in this totally cool hobby of ours for malicious posts...which are generated just to piss people off. If these people on this other site have nothing GOOD to say about someone or their car, why waste the time to say it?

Finally, having a difference of opinion about someone or something is fine...just be civil about it.

I guess I'm the eternal optimist.

Steve and all involved...have a great day...I know that I will!

Actually it's $$$$$ If it were only $, nobody would have the jealousy or think it worthwhile to spend the energy.

For me anyway, hanging with you guys for a couple days each September in Collinsville is a highlight of my year. My daily trips to the board let me feel like it's not so long between visits.



I can relate to Bob's problem of trying to get pictures of all the cars and keep them straight. The first year I did the CD I could manage it myself. The last two years I could never have done it without Rob's help. Do you think that Bob M. somehow got Steve's Green COPO confused with Kevin Suydam's RG Harrell COPO?

I'm gonna bet that a 69 COPO Camaro in "Metallic" green and a 70 Dick Harrell Camaro in "Metallic" green caused the confusion. No biggie, a just a typo. Anyone with a good set of glasses and a knowledge of Steve's collection should be able to figure that one out. Otherwise why would anyone feel it necessary to challenge the authenticity of his collection?

Steve, The person you are responding to is insignificant in our arena. It appears his sole purpose is to stir the sh!t. He never provides any sustantiated proof, just innuendos. I never met him nor has anyone else on this site. His only role is to perpetuates rumors and skepticism; even when hard facts and documentation is provided. The only thing super he owns is his imagination.

I would disregard any and all of his communications, and not give any press to his feeble attempts to discredit members of this board.
