You write a caption like that, and then have the nerve to call ME the "Big Dummy"! You need to learn to use the computer.
You also sound like one of those whiners that expect everyone to give you something for nothing.
As far as me believing that "Hot Rodding is dead" I don't see it. I'm always willing to help out a fellow rodder in need, and I have had plenty of help from others.
Also If you look at my profile you'll see that I have sold a lot of rods on this site, and all of them at a good price. I've also bought a lot from this site at good deals.
There are some jerks out there, but I know a lot Hot Rodder's that are great people. You must be hanging out in the wrong places!

hotroddin dead? damn wish i had known that before i spent all this damn money. no it aint dead by no means. not at my place anyways.got more cars and parts than i ever had. and if i run in to a young gun who wants to learn i bring him into the shop and put his but to work, and i dont even have to pay them thay just want to learn and be around hotrods. amn look around. there is more going on in the hotrod world than ever before.shows, runs, street racing its happenin now. people may not cruise like they used to, and there is many reasons for that, but it aint dead by no means.
