Well I don't get snotty, if anything I get snotty with snots.
Hey its your car - do as you please.
Well, I do get snotty with people who tell me their car is 100 percent concours yet it has GT wheels and lights and a full pony kit, yet its an early 65 6 cyl.
Trying to pull that whopper does none of us any good.
My 64 1/2 looks like a 64 1/2, but it is driven all the time, I just don't understand things like the 94 Pace car with something like 12 miles on it displayed in a bubble at Carlisle.
If you are not a Museum, where is the fun in that?
I don't think anyone should ever get any points off on a brake upgrade - from the pads to the master cylinder - a safe car is better than a wreck.
Cheers!
