Fantastic each and every one of them, every mess made of a vette like these increases the value of the diminishing pool of good ones:-)

I dont mind the headlights actually. The wing is "almost" as bad as the stance and wheel gaps.
The 4x4 is freakin COOL I'm sorry.

I stumbled upon this thread and it looked very interesting. I didn’t check the date, is it wrong to post on old threads? I don’t know, I’m kinda new here.

Oh geez, LOL. But seriously, could you please explain why? I still get comments posted on a couple of my YouTube videos that are years old, and I appreciate them (except for the rare kids just trying to be cyber bullies).

Yesterday I got chewed on by 2 other forum members here as a result of a misunderstanding of my posting on a thread where I was defending another forum member. So I guess I'm getting the forum etiquette all wrong.

Seems there wouldn't be a search option, if the intention was to not use it.

Sometimes you get chastised for not using it, other times for using it..now how can that be confusing?

I’ll try. There was once a written forum rule that threads should not be revived after 45 days. That was way too short. So, they removed any actual reference and left it open to the particular mod or admin to decide if a thread has been dead long enough to just start a new thread on a particular topic. Some threads, actually like this one, doesn’t really have a time relevance to it so I wouldn’t be that interested in closing it if you had answered it with another contribution of an “ugly C3.” However, your post just answering a 3 year old dead post as if the conversation was still going on does not really add to an old thread.

It’s going to be a case by case personal call by the mod. There’s a chance you might not agree with it.

Regarding your other incident, it’s tough to comment without seeing it. That general guideline is, if you are typing, you are taking a risk of someone chewing on you.

LOL. I do enjoy the Mad Max style cars. I would love see some of those on the road, or even build one myself when I retire!
