On second thought Jock, I was hasty in making such a statement, I apologize to those I've offended. I know you've printed some articles on the car in the NAMDRA publication and there have been donations from mid-westerners. Sometimes we all stick our foot in our mouth, and I can taste a bit of leather right now... After a lot more consideration I think the main reason it was hard to get someone to take the car after Kenosha is due to the nature of the work that was needed, mainly body work. That's not a skill to many hobbyist have. I'll do some of my own work, but am a bit reluctant to do it for others. All knew that it needed a quarter panel, and R&R of a quarter isn't an easy task. The southern guys did all the more familiar mechanical work. There is a bit of disagreement on where the car should go next. It doesn't have to be a big mess, and I've taken steps to straighten the seeming mess out (see my previous post on this subject). I'm making every effort to get the conflict resolved in a civil manner. -- Frank Swygert Publisher, "American Motors Cars" Magazine (AMC) For all AMC enthusiasts http://farna.home.att.net/AIM.html (free download available!) -------------- Original message ---------------------- > Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 11:15:51 -0500 > From: namdra@xxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [AMC-List] {AMC-List} Charity AMX > > Frank said - >I have to tell you, I'm, pissed off at the mid west AMC > enthusiasts in general.> > > Frank, this wasn't very nice of you and I feel you should apologize to > the mid-west AMC'ers.
