What you call the death.. "of this site".. is really the evolution all across the internet! Forums are passe', alot like many of us hot rodders...
Many want "us" to go away.. like the dinosaur.. but!!

In any event, have a question to fix anything? It's already been answered and apps like google or bing will help you find the answer within seconds.
Forums of like minded folks have been dwindling. I think "we" will be around for awhile yet.. alot like our cars!

Folks our age seem to like to hang out and discuss things we like. In this case rods & customs. Or cameras, or planes.... or motorcycles.. or girls... or....???? What you got?!?!
