Cuda Gills on a Dart?

Oh I know, it is an interesting car and I'm sure there might be people here interested in it. And people can not like the mods the owner made, that's fine. Heck I don't like some of them, at least not they way that they were done.

But it always goes the same way. Some people like it, some people make some constructive criticism, and then some folks jump in and start indiscriminately bashing it, then others have to pile on and say even more ridiculous crap to get noticed. The purists on this site always do the same thing, even though they're probably the least talented people here from a mechanical stand point.

And it doesn't matter, those same folks are pissed either way. Buy a '74 and clone it to a '71? Well, you should have just bought a '71 they say. Never mind that the '74 was a 1/4 of the price and cloning it over was cheaper than the difference. But if you buy a '71 340 car and start modifying it, well, that's a crime against humanity and the SAME people that spewed hate about you cloning a '74 will spew even more hate about modifying an original car. The bottom line is, the purists are NEVER happy. Even if you restore everything to factory stock and do a fantastic job some other purist jerk off will find some tiny little detail to criticize. Because that's just what they do, they're insufferable.

Thank you. Have you ever been to a PCA event? Man, those assgoblins with the little 356 bathtubs are beyond compare. "You used the wrong tint of orange in your guard's red paint," or, "You got a nit in the chrome on your rear view mirror." and God forbid you remove the bumper guards or put the amber European turn signals on a US model which were supposed to be clear!

edit: And that better be lead, not bondo!
