freedom of speech? THAT'S the excuse you wanna use to comfort yourself as you degrade another person's personal preference? It's boarder line gearhead hate speech.
Remember, most people didn't care about the same cars some of us cherish. Often times, and still to this day, Cbodies are found in a field with the drivetrain ripped out. Another sacrifice to the A,B and E body car gods.
While I might agree that some cars (very few actually) need to restored or preserved, the rarity or originality of a vehicle means nothing to me. If I found a 'rare' GT car at a reasonable price (rusted or without a driveline), I'd cut it up and do as I want so that I could drive the hell out of it, even if It might upset some of the 'purist'. You know, folks who only drive their cars when the weather is 72.5° and only a few hundred miles a year.
Again, I might not agree with his version of a wagon (but I just might) nor the sale price (it seems a little high, especially when that could purchase a decent A or B body car) publically degrading someone's project isn't helping our hobby.
This site has a wealth of information and knowledge and some extremely beautiful cars. I've been a quiet member here, as well as Drydock and Moparts, for almost a decade (longer on Moparts) I can honestly say that the negative comments have gitten worse...and that isn't really helping our hobby.
Sorry for the rant, let's try to be a bit more positive with our freedom of speech, please.
