    I think we have an enthusiastic young man that is interested in cars and american muscle. Not as many of them around as there was when I was his age. I can remember be tutored by my Dad as a young lad, him teaching and explaining things, boy did I make my mistakes, but he seldom lost his patience. Sure would be nice to see more young people getting involved in our sport. Maybe we could have more patience...

    I have a 19 year old grandson that does almost all of the work on the 66 Mustang I gave him and I have tons of patience, but not for posers.

    I was hoping the car community was a little better then this. Out of all the people i have talked to about cars not once have i had some one disrespect me so much because they assume things. everything i said is 100% true if you believe me sure if you dont what ever but please don't disrespect me by calling me a poser. Do you have any idea how much i paid for that car, the work i put into it, the money i put into it, the time i have used up instead of being with friends to clean it, work on it or to go for a drive. How much i have to work to be able to pay for it. I love my car. so why would i go and make up lies about it when i simply wanted to know if you guys could help me out. so please don't disrespect me any more.

    The picture was up late last night in post #48 and after Jerry's post #49 it was taken down. It was a picture of the engine bay and as Jerry pointed out there were a lot of things missing. To me it was evident that it was a dressed up small block and as Jerry pointed out not a $10,000 engine. As I said earlier, "I smell a rat", no disrespect just the plain truth.
    I have a ton of admiration for a youngster trying to work on older American iron and glean information, but as John Vernon said in "The Outlaw Josey Wales", "Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining".
