    Breathe slow.

    Look at the picture.

    Note the detail.

    Think calm thoughts.

    Dream a little.

    Who's flaming who ?

     



    First of all I never meant to start a ruckus, second I re-read the thread from the start, seems this post (quoted below) from GulfCoastGasser is what started the friction and for all intense purposes looked to me to be judgmental and intolerant. seems it went against the first post that he posted on this thread. I make mention of it and suddenly I'm the bad guy, although some of you agreed with my first post.
    Third, I am rarely confrontational, as my former posts and threads I started would show, but when I see two opinions from the same guy that seem to contradict each other, first wanting universal tolerance then being intolerant, I am going to mention it. ( Is flh4speed and I the only ones that see this ?)

    Sorry if having a opinion offends some of you guys, but some of people in the U.S. as well as Canada have opinions.

    And another thing,...... heres one of my real flame jobs !

    Takes a lot of imagination or courage to do the same thing as everyone else.

    Maybe that's it, I just sold my beater 34 3/W and am working on other peoples Hot Rod projects (mine are sitting in the corner of the shop gathering dust and bat poo),... All I have to drive is my F-350 Powerstroke, and diesel is almost $5.00 a gallon,......... OK I am calm now and having a "zen" moment ,...
    but I still don't think I am wrong

    Jay's stroke is pretty cool, and I'm glad he was able to hang onto the camera, but this does it for me.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    I think you and I were both misunderstood. We were saying the same thing and talking past each other!

    ALL cars are marvel, even those that others condemn.

    Its a marvel how well they all function and for the most part how fool proof they are -(there are a lot of fools on the road that prove that everyday! )

    And beauty IS in the eyes of the beholder…thank goodness for most of us or we would never get any lovin”!


    I just can do without out folks passing judgment on other’s cars. There is no such thing as the perfect car for everyone, if there were Detroit would be pumping it out non-stop.

    This is being touted as The People’s Car for the new millennium.

    Tata Nano!

    With that, let’s all drop this line and start up the Summer Lovin (of cars that is!)

    The question I have is why do I even care what anyone else thinks about my car? But I do. I want other people to appreciate it. I like it when I get a compliment.
    I have noticed that many (maybe most) of the ambitious builders aren't wasting a lot of time on the forums.How can you have thousands of posts and get anything done? (me)
