Almost ready to give up MOPAR mags...it goes like this....a guy has a bug for a mopar so he buys a POS that he finds in a field or where ever....it is not for dragging but impressing his buds....a body shop brings it back to life, someone else paints it, a Ray Burton engine goes in( must be worth an extra inch) it yada yada...the article reads like a free advertisement for 15 companies..and buddy sure is proud of it at car shows...actually, the companies that build it for him should be proud...or actually , buddy should be proud of writing a check...believe it or not, many folks actually do that to buy a car... oh, and the you see this car in at least 2 more MOPAR mags with a different slant..all within an issue or two.
What impresses me is the guy/girl/family at home doing as much as possible to resurrect / restore or mod a car..they may not do everything to the car but their hands are all over it...it may not be perfect but that impresses me so much more than the car above..
The MOPAR mags whine that no one sends in the "real" restos or they cannot find them.
I say that they should actually look for these stories...even maybe set a reporter to troll this site....I am so motivated to get going on the kids car ( even painting) just from what I have been watching folks building their rides with the help of other members here... I am impressed...
OK, that is my opinion..what the hell do I know..I like playing with cars..
