It would be interesting to know if the demise is due to fewer folks building new hot rods, or due to the nature or lack of responses being made.

When I first started my build log, 2 years ago, I sure got some strange and rather unfriendly comments, particularly if I was not asking for help. A log should document the build, but does not have to include requests for help. Some members seem to have nothing better to do than post about what they don't like to see other people building, particularly if the build is not following the "traditional" look. Times change and I want my car to be a bit more modern.
