Amen,brother Dave..No,sir,not being smart..Have seen/heard these arguments before,,all true..I look at some of these well built rods,with EFI,etc..and think..''Well.thats traditional...yup,traditional late 90s...
I know what you mean,Dave..I have had older guys tell me that the reason why they drove them around in primer,is because,usually it was their only car,,and like many of us,drove them while we modified them,and saved the money for parts,paint etc..
I,too,am sick of hearing a lot of these young guys saying that the ugly knock kneed ground scraper they are building is traditional..Yeah right..
