I'll start this by saying I don't have any problem with someone telling me that I've posted something in the wrong forum. That being said...
The other day I posted in the originality/preservation forum. I found a lot of info on concours stuff there. I made the mistake of posting some info about my car there, the winnings and concours I've been to. I thought it was relative to the forum as far as concours stuff. My topic title "Not original but a winner!" Pat closed the thread. No big deal with me, until I read the last paragraph. QUOTE OK, I'm sure a lot of you expected me to open my mouth here. Time for me to be the bad guy. Don't really want to, because this IS a nice 914. It IS far from original (per the owner) and this IS an originality forum. And, will stay an originality form....so long as I am the Moderator. I know I'm going to be VERY unpopular here, but I'm closing this thread. Feel free to take it to the Garage Forum. Should have never been posted here. This Forum is for originality/preservation. Just because you show with a slick looking, unoriginally equipped 914 & win (for whatever reason), doesn't mean you get space on his Forum. Hope I haven't hurt your feelings & all your self imposed accolades (ask me about mine!), but, as nice as your 914 is, it isn't original or preserved. Doesn't belong here. Topic closed. "self imposed accolades" kiss my ass!! Those "accolades" were given(not imposed, you ass) to me by my peers. I only posted them to show that you can win car shows and concours event with out being original or "preserved". So Pat I'll just say I'm sorry for posting in your forum and I think your a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) for your last paragraph. Hope I didn't hurt your feelings. |

If a CW has a 914 that is judged a 96 point car ...is it deemed un-original and therefore banned?
Is Pats perfect 914 a 100 point car at each concours he attends? If not is he banished from the event...at what score do you ask an entrant to pack up and go home with his un-original 914? Just because a 914 is a 65 point car (or less) it does not merit exclusion...it may not win at the BIG shows...but it's entered and should be welcome. He certainly does not deserve to be talked down to and his prior accomplishments dissed no matter how stuck up you are. My $0.02 Sean |
