Having known ixfxi since 1999 or so, I can reliably say that you're out of your element.

I found a pic of your first white s13 on the road enroute to some meet the other day. If I dig it up again I'll send it along.

I crashed at his place way back when, so sure.

Eh, I haven't moderated in nearly a decade and I'm not in a big hurry to begin again. The thing is, I understand both perspectives. IxfxI and I have loved S-chassis for more than two decades, and we've seen it go from obscure car marketed to women to clapped out drift missile, and now to valuable uncommon commodity. The thing is, he and I have always seen these cars as valuable and worthwhile, and the trend followers who have bought cars, smashed, parted, crushed, etc and moved on hurt us in an intangible way. Seeing some dipshit wreck parts on a junkyard car sucks, but the feeling folks in this thread are getting from it is the feeling we've had for fucking decades, and it's almost insulting. Sure it sucks that some douche is being a douche but it's a drop in the bucket relative to the garbage we've seen occur, and knowing that a majority of the people whining about today will move on to another chassis in 6 months or a year or 5 years is just...

^^ I can agree with that...but the thread was started by someone with a lot of time invested in this platform and people like him commented. I think I'm almost at the 10yr mark as well. I would say some of us are in the same boat. Y'all might be on the bridge and we might be below decks, but the boat is the same.

I don't know ixfxi, but I'm familiar with his level of sarcasm and shit talking. I think people just don't pick up on it a lot. You've either got that 'chip' in your brain or you don't.

so then what the hell are we supposed to do? go trash 240s?

so, we arent allowed to have the same 'feeling' as you because you've had said 'feeling' for 'decades'? ive never owned a 240 in my entire life and i still think what this PBM dude did was terrible. intentionally trashing someone elses' property is a shitty thing to do. 240s or not, decades of 'feels' or not.

I think he's saying that people saying that they have the same feeling but will move on to another car in a few months is insulting.

whats with all this feelings bullshit?

as much as i dont like seeing how the car has blown up over the decades (yes, multiple) - you cant stop change. It is what it is. We get older, these cars fall apart, hopefully we can still get parts, hopefully people still appreciate them, and hopefully... we get to drive our shit boxes. But thats all hopes, not reality. I havent driven my car in close to 15 years now. You know, the road to "restoration" is never easy. And now that I own multiple cars and multiple chassis', and have more important shit to worry about (like life) - car projects just end up being shit to do when i'm bored, willing and able.

the last thing, literally, that I worry about is some fucking piss ant destroying parts at the scrapyard. a car that is destined to be crushed, and a yard that is owned and operated by a corporate giant.

If any one really, really cares. Start up a business buying wrecked vehicles off the auction sites and part them out. I'd rather support you than LKQ, pick a part, etc. There is a reason why people who part out cars do fairly well selling on ebay. No hassles for anyone.
