    I have tried to start a couple of threads looking for odd British cars you know not Anglias etc. But both were deleted, WHY?? In the rules you supposedly can post foreign cars but it seems this is no longer the case if you are asking for pictures of them.:mad: Here is the last notification I received;

    Even if you have come here for all the right reasons, don’t expect posting to be easy. We don’t cater to new fellas unless they show a dedication to spreading this tradition of ours first. We welcome young, old, foreign and all – but our original members and our staff expect a certain level of respect and an effort to keep things true and on topic.


    ^^^ Again, taken from the rules, I think this is is what you are talking about, if so, read it again slowly.

    We welcome period anglias and the such... but we don't welcome "odd british hot rods" as you stated. We try to stay a little more focused than that.

    As for reading my own rules... Yeah, I've done that. I wrote them.

    If my kind of vehicles aren't welcome here then take me off the membership. Damn it Americans cars are not the only vehicles that were typical hot rods throughout the world!

    Maybe not, but the '30's through the '60's dictated what hot rodding was all about. Vast majority were American cars. But a FEW foreign marques were acceptable as hot rod material.

    Who wants to read about a hot rod Trabant? Or a hot rod Checker Cab for that matter?

    You still haven't said what your vehicle is, an ARDUN equiped ALLARD should fit in without trouble. Bob
