To me its a "so what".

But the Registry also says other things too... Dare I go there? Keep reading.

BTW I love pickled herring in the white cream sauce. Yummy.

I don't say much here, well because I usually don't give it much thought when these "P" Matches start. I get the feeling all that matters to you is that your car is in the "book".

Be happy it is and it probably cost you a lot to make sure it got in there, for me I don't care about if my car is authentic or not it sure is fun and a lot of people say it is beautiful. Now my car is no where near looking real and I get asked all the time if it is, my reply is I don't have the check book for a real one. Now I could care less what you paid to make sure your car was "in the Book" but I know what I have for less than 20K and five years of the satisfaction of building the car I wanted "From Scratch no less", It's stupid fast handles like it's on rails and I can get parts to keep it on the road at NAPA. Does that make my car better than anyone else, HELL NO.

I'll go back and sit in my corner with all the replica owners now and watch.

Well, it occurs to me that perhaps not all of the modifications I made are technically 'street legal'

Nothing good ever happened after this statement;
Hey Moe watch this!
