Next time you become ill, don't go to a doctor, read the Physicians Desk Reference book. I will then think more highly of you.

I have always thought this as a stupid argument. Who really cares? I have never looked at a cool car and wondered if the guy built it or bought it. I just think, good for him for having a bad ass car.

I figure what better way to make an introduction than a couple of atomic wedgies. I hope you got a chuckle.

Anyhow. I’ve been here for a while, since 2010 dropping in and out but not posting as much. I have a 67 & a 69 Camaro/both unfinished. I’ve been stuck in AZ/Scottsdale for the last 6 years. Finally moving back to Orange County soon where my family, friends and Cars are at. I race Spec racer fords in SCCA. I keeping my car in TX for the 2016 season to race with friends. Planning on making it to the Runoffs at Mid Ohio this year.

It’s been a while since I ran a PT event. Since RTTC II when we ran the shop 67 Camaro. That article was divisive and full of girl purse swinging drama. (I should know I have two daughters). I can’t recall any of that going on back a couple of years ago. I hope it’s not going on now.

So you built your car. Sweet. So you bought your car. Awesome! All I care about is if you can drive the damn thing because I know a couple of Spec Miatas who will give you a run for your money. LOL!

Cheers!

Corey

I think the arguement is passing of a bought car as a car you actually built. Nothing bothers me more than someone taking credit for someone elses creativity and skill. i built my car and have a very high respect for those who do and dont like those who pretend they do .

Agreed. A nice LS 69 protour rolls up at our local Saturday c&c. I talk to the guy a couple mins and he says he built the car.

I ask him what auto tranny he's running and he says he doesn't know. Couple other guestions about the LS swap and he's clueless.

Yeah right he built it?

Another guy same day with a sweet Chevelle. I ask a couple question he says I don't know I bought it this way.

I have more respect for guy #2
