Why are you saying Wah? I'm saying that I want to drive my car when it's done.

You have to enjoy the car no matter what version of "enjoyment" you subscribe to. If it is restoring the car to the last nut and bolt or just putting it back together to beat the crap out of it, Amen to both. You can't sit and think what might happen if I take it out on the road. I had a lightning bolt hit next to my garage a couple weeks ago and what was I thinking? Hey, I should have had that car out of there and on the road at the time.

I remember back in '86, right after I finished the restoration on my 71 hemicuda ragtop, the first show I brought it to was the Supercar Showdown. I had that thing rev'd up to 7200 rpm in high gear and what was I thinking? I was thinking, hey, this thing is at 7200 rpm and I am still losing to a g-d damn, 4-door red Impala with a 427/425 and a four speed. That's what I was thinking.

As long as you guys want to continue the drive it vs. don't drive it argument, off topic though it may be, check this out: http://www.classicchevyandcorvetteshow.com/
Bob McDorman never drives any of these cars.
He also never puts the hood up on any of them, because that would require detailing of the engine compartment.
In the front row of Camaro's will be his ZL1. No mention will be made anywhere that it's a clone.
Personally, I like to drive my car. I refer to it as my "anti-depressant". I also tell people that since I'm sitting on the powertrain warranty, (my wallet), that it's not quite as abused as some, but more than others.
Now, having said all of that, is anyone going to bid on this ZL1, or should we just start another thread?
