Gripe: "Restoration." Yea right.
Since the vast majority of owners of these cars now only had a magazine or a parent with a memory of one to provide the motivation to buy it. I can't accurately describe the condition of my clothes washer aside from "it works" and I've put a belt in it once. Ignorance always leads to poor descriptions, and those who are in the know will always be ready to provide their input and correction. Nevermind the car salesman who will say anything to get the deal made. I can remember buying a lot of cars in the 80s whose owners said "it's been painted" or "I put wheels on it and it's got new brakes and exhaust". The words restored and clone are incredibly subjective to the user of them, and most of the users now have no idea about reality.
