Clinto, I agree 100%. I am a muscle car guy as well, but i cant afford to finish my project car ($10k for a 408 Cleveland stroker motor and $15 for body work, no thanks). I feel part of the younger crowd (35 y.o)...
Stay strong. I fear this is happening in more areas as well.

You guys have a great forum!
I'm looking for my first M35A2 to share with my Father in law. I do not have experience with them but I have a nagging feeling that I Must Get One! 8)
