Your reason for getting out of this notch of the hobby is that you don't have room to collect.
had the ad stated in your first listing that the car was a former advertising gimmick we all would have understood from the get go why this was done to it.
You make fair points, except for these two. Were I not burnt over past PCS interactions, I would still be a member, and my enthusiasm for the hobby would be higher than it is now. I would be inclined to find room to store my cars. As it is, I'm not in a huge rush to rehome them. While storage is an issue, to say it's the entire reason for me selling them would be brushing off a rather large reason that is also a factor.
I pointed this out previously, but I very clearly said what the car was in the 2000 word description of the car in which I laid out it's entire history as it's known to me. Nothing was changed in this listing in that regard. I was very clear about its origins.
I understand that it's a lot of text to read, but I figure that's way better than having a vague description where you will have issues with a vehicle that were never discussed or pointed out. All I ask is that if this is brought up, please read the description. It tells most of what anyone would want to know about the car and it's history.
It will not offend me if someone restores this to stock, or modifies it further. It's a nice car to do either to. I simply want it to go to a good home. What the person does with it after they get it is up to them, and my say has no bearing on their choices.
I have no desire to win trophies at car shows with this, or with any car. I long ago got out of that interest. I have nothing to prove at a car show, and go to enjoy the company of other car enthusiasts. Were I to take a car to a PCS event, I wouldn't be one of the folks upset that it didn't score well. That should go to the people who spent a ton of time and money putting their car back stock, as that's the roots of this club, as you've said.
Car shows of any kind are generally pretty silly, as far as judging goes. We had a rather large turn out at a funeral home that put on a car show, very nice event, and had 8 or so hearses there. They put us out on the furthest hill away from the car show, and gave the local PT Cruiser club top billing right up front. Best in show went to, as I recall, a PT cruiser with wood paneling and a fake continental kit on the back. I mean, of all the places that should appreciate the nice pro cars that came out, you'd figure the funeral home would. Pretty funny if you ask me.
If this thread is causing problems, by all means close it down. The title description is wrong anyway since it's not a 3 way car. I for one, would rather have discussion than silence.
Silence is lonely, and is the reason that clubs are a thing.
