Btw, I’m not into flashy cars tex...Been there done that.

Btw, ya know what’s ironic? Many years ago in So. CA ya saw was young people building and working on hot rods, custom cars of every description. S. CA was the center of the universe for this. It was a great time in the car world.

Fast forward to 2017. Ya mostly see senile gray haired old men driving hot rods that they paid big $$$ for and other high end cars. I think it’s an end of life thing with these guys. And the younger people today? They’re priced out. They could never afford any of this. They’re lucky if they own a plastic beater shoe car.

At 85 cents per hour I was priced out too!

Doncha ya think the government meddling in both cars and housing artificially created the cookie cutter shoes and shoeboxes that we see? My dad was a builder after WWII. By the time he died in late 90’s, he told me the profits were eaten away by regulations and paperwork. Which is why housing is squished together and monocolored. Very sad that creativity and individuality die when government controls every tiny thing we say and do!!
