You're on a roll, Owen. I've gone over this one in my threads all over. But it is still ignored. How many times do folks on videos and TV say "it's a 'concourse' restoration"? So keep going. Now explain "restoration" ...and how it differs from "customizing." And why it is that nobody today wants to admit that they are customizing a car anymore even though this is exactly what many are doing. I am continually baffled by folks who want to modify EVERYTHING, yet call it "restoration." Auction folks have muddied terminology so badly that they had to invent a new term, "restomod"... which comes along the lines of saying, "I did and I didn't"... or "I walkedran." Perfect sense. Now... let's see "upgrade" defined. THis is the latest one. The old car hobby and automotive terminology are completely off the rails.

And lest we forget, a "clone" car is now a "tribute" car... very important difference apparently.

I would and could concern myself with this more after some of these same people learn the difference between your and you're, and among to, too and two.

If you're not having fun, maybe it's your own damned fault.
