I should really take my Cougar to a Super Chevy show...that would be a riot.

thats cause they were out being driven.

Its funny that there is so much hate and bias in the hot rod community. I remember I was in a local club. Bunch of retired guys and their kids. There was so much hate for swaps. Hot rodding started because they were against conformity and order. Being different. But as soon as you were outside of the box different you automaticly sucked.

If Ford and Mopar made an engine that can fit into a body without major mods, make power down low and easy to deal with electonics then I would be a believer.
