Wow, this tread is so insane I had to log in to respond.
I'm from the North Hills... if any of you know anything about Pittsburgh, our kind doesn't get along well with folks from the South Hills.
But this is beyond stupid. South Hills offered his car for sale.
If you want to buy it, pull out your wallet. If you don't, shut your mouth.
If you want to sell your own car, good for you. Start you own ad and stay out of his.
This is a low-mileage MM... not unheard of but getting to be unusual. South Hills has calmly responded to some really stupid posts here... stuff I'd be really embarrassed to say.
It's also done "right" and it's turn-key. I think it would be a challange to buy a low-mile car and copy these mods. Can you find a cheaper one someplace in the country? Maybe. Can you build it for the same money? Maybe. Maybe not.
Some folks have more dreams than money. Some folks have more money than time. For those people, a turnkey car is very appealing.
Has South Hills been crying the blues that he can't sell his very special car in 20 minutes? Nope.
Has he been patient with idiots detouring his classified thread? Yep.
This is a helluva community when one member lists a car for sale and others jump into the thread to thwart his effots.
Me? I saw his ad listed in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette a week ago and put a linky to it on the other site "across town".
The value of this car is irrelevant to me. That number matters to the seller and the buyer. The rest of us can help or shut up, but if you're going to do anything else don't pretend you're helping.
South Hills... GL with your sale!
Hey Greg:
Welcome back to our little jungle.
Greg is right, people from the North and South Hills don’t associate much; it’s not that we don’t like each other; it’s more like we’re on two different planets.
Last time I was really in the North Hills was twenty-something years ago, visiting wife number 1’s folks; she was a native of Shaler Township. I used to hang–out at the Mt. Royale Lounge with her brother Bugsy (I am not making this up) and his running buddies, and the folks up there treated me very cordially, even though I was from the “south.”
Anyway, thank you for your post Greg. It’s good to hear from another denizen of the “Burgh.” Life is good here; the Penguins won the cup for the 3rd time a few months back, the Steelers open camp tomorrow in Latrobe and begin the campaign for their 7th Super Bowl title, and the Pirates, well, they have the country’s finest ball park.
On the off-chance you ever pass through Peters Township, give me a shout; I’d love to see your Trilogy MM and would be very pleased to sponsor an adult beverage, or two.
BTW, here’s something I hope we can all stack-hands on; my avatar kicks-xxx. My best time in finding the hidden car?
Well, haven’t quite managed to do that yet….
Respectfully,
South Hills
