You have a different take on his message/complaint then I. I am willing to
fight,
and have fought, various dragons. I'm also a bit of a pragmatist. I'm not
going
to put my car on blocks because it's modified into a configuration I damn well
know
is illegal. And if I do (which I currently am), I know how to play the game
and
get it on the road. Antique, historic, street rod to name the three I can
currently think of. Won't be a daily driver then, but it WILL be on the road!
Do I think the tail pipe emissions are important? You bet! That's why I've
been
bitching up a storm about using drive by emission testing instead of drive in
emission testing. That said, I'm real aware that right now, today, I have to
do
the drive in type. And, as such, that I'd better play that game, right now,
today,
if I want my car on the road.
You tell me which is better, a car on blocks for years, or a car on the road?
