The GM and Ford guys had a head start on us.

Hate is too strong of a word... Ignorance on the other hand fits all purists of any manufactured product, owners included.

I've had my 64 Signet longer than many of you have had your drivers license and if I hadn't loved it's body so much, I would have sold it and kept my 66 396 SS when I had both at the same time, along with a late paxton supercharged 416 stroker Ford truck.

I am not about to put down other manufacturers just to follow some trend here or anywhere. I hit some shows with my Signet and totally dislike talking to purists of all calibers. Both me and my car are accepted by hotrodders wherever we go, than again, maybe it's my doggies they like.
