What right
Hi Guys
I just have to join in with my two cents worth. Why do we do it, well it's because we love it. What right does anyone have to criticise us. When I retired from work I finally had the time to do something that "I wanted to do". I restored my 1942 MB Willys Jeep from the chassis up and found it one of the greatest thrills of my life. It kept me sane and stopped me vegetating into a potato couch as I had seen a lot of my friends become after they retired. One of my biggest regrets was selling my Jeep and I still feel sad when I look into my garage and see it gone and I wonder where it is now. But we move on to do other projects to keep us happy and from under our wives feet.  Cheers Tony

I have met many people and have aquaintances and friends all over the world now. I have expanded my knowledge of many things. Meeting people from all walks of life gives one a different view. It is certainly nice to be able to travel and meet up with unknown and known faces. Keeps things interesting.

I think this sums it up pretty easily the next time "Hammy" brings up the subject simple state "If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can't understand it with an explanation.

I know Hammy. Its a small (army) world after all.
Anyway, I think its more to do with his personality than the hobby itself. Rather ironic especially considering some of his shit box mustangs from back in the day. Then again, people in this hobby are hardly "run of the mill", and don't even get me started on surplus dealers

Until I got to know him better, I figured he was one of those guys who just knew a lot. After spending more time around him, I've learned that is not necessarily true. Maybe someone pi##ed in his CornFlakes before I spoke to him?
