I can relate to this. What further kills me is the guys who also like to say, "I wouldn't have did this..." or, "If I were him, I would have..." There's always some guy who has never had a car or is just jealous because he may also never get one.

It could be that the guys the OP mentioned are jealous, insecure, stupid, have small dicks, or whatever, or maybe the panel gaps did suck. I don't pretend to know. In the end it's just an opinion, and everyone is entitled to one.

i agree. why the hell were they looking at your car in the first place? the bitchin stance? the wheels? the seats? something drew them in. if you had spent hours on the gaps then i would feel bad, but i personally wouldnt give a crap. i havent ever got past your wheels and stance when ive seen it in person, and i care about gaps. you know what they say about opinions, right.........

I'd tear the car completely apart and put it on a rotisserie and it would see the light of day until those damn gaps were perfect... How dare you drive such a POS and spoil those guys day! Shame on you!

That's pretty funny Greg.

Doug, I wouldn't worry about what some numbnut said about your ride. I've had people ridicule my Camaro also, mainly because it's a thirdgen. What I say is they don't you and they don't know your car. They don't know what kind of work has gone into building your Camaro. My thoughts are if they were real car guys, they would compliment the fact that you have a sweet Camaro. They can go pound sand.

Man, what took you so long---I was about to call you--this post was ripe for a "Weld" comment---and it took you like 2 days to respond? Are you cheating on Lat G with someone else? LOL

I agree with every comment made here---it felt good to post up the issue and get some responses from you guys---especially when I figured I couldn't be the only one getting these guys around my car. Typically, I would never say anything about such things, however I was a bit tired of it by the end of the morning for some reason this time.

I guess I'm really amazed at a couple of things here; Matt's car being slammed for investing too much money into a 69 Camaro--that's a new one, and gaps being "too" good. Never thought I would hear that. Thanks for all the positives, that means a lot coming from this group. I am going to try the "Mario" approach on the next one---and see what happens. My luck it will be like Carrol Shelby or something.

This community is the best thing going for sure. I'm really thinking about changing the cars name from Appollo 13 to Gappy now---

Doug --

The "gappy" was between the bozos ears that made the original comments.

Hey -- Some times I'm actually BUSY... Just arrived in Phoenix last night -- hauling the daughters Mustystang down for her start at ASU... one down - one to go...

It's why I had to cancel PT... well, that and... the motor for the Nomad is on a stand (not between frame rails).
