Yes Bart, I'm frozen solid, besides, my Grem
is stored at my Dad's farm until spring. Hell, I had to wait for a week
just to put air in the tire of my daily driver. Not much going on around
here. I did go over to my friends place yesterday to check out his '67
Firebird he's working on. Its gonna be one nice unit, but its a long way
from done.
BTW, SIMMS.. I've always wondered about
those JC Whitney rockers, did you say you used them?
Personally, I don't know why anyone would
slam Bart or his project or his group. He has done more than a lot of
people by just creating this group. He gave us a place to go and not have
to sift thru all the stuff about AMX's or Javelins or whatever. This group
is about the OTHER AMC guys and their cars. I'm proud to be a member of it
and have been since 2 days after it started up. I had a personal invitation
from Bart himself. I used to be a
member of "The List" and haven't been for at least 7 years.. cuz of all the
bitchin and whining. No doubt there is still some valuable info on it, but
I'd rather not read every post about how "Mine's right, yours isn't" or
"Only AMXes are worth anything, why would anyone sink money into a
worthless Gremlin?" If its no longer like that, I wouldn't know,
cuz I haven't gone back. Fran's AMC Forum is a mighty good place too,
but I don't go there much any more unless I need something that hasn't been
covered here. I'd rather be here, with you people. If anyone is
offended by what I've said, just know that I'm not going to apologize. I'm
sure you all know that once you put your OPINION on a chat/forum/website, you're
going to get flamed or bitched at or cause hard feelings to someone, even if its
meant to be done in fun. Its unrealistic to expect that people aren't
going to complain about one thing or another, but lets please try to keep it to
a minimum. That is why this site is great, it has more positive comments
than negative. The last thing any Gremlin owner needs is more negative
comments.
I've known Bart for quite a few years now
and he has always been very enthusiastic about AMCs, especially Gremlins.
He still loves to hear about all the progress on your projects, I'm sure that's
what keeps him going when things get tough. I know it does for
me.
Bart, can you believe that you have 124
members and almost 9000 posts since May 26th 2002? Not even three years...
I'd say this place is quite the success. PS: do you still play a few riffs once
in a while?
