PLEASE do not take this as bashing......or complaining........it is what it is .... an observation:
I was over at the other forum.....you know which one......"traditionals ONLY" and a newer member asked the question that always brings out the worst in most of those people.
He happened to have a 50's ford pick up that he'd been working on & has "bagged" the suspension.
Now remember - he opened the door to "what do you think" but be real....isn't this hobby, sport or what ever you'd like to call it really all about bringing old cars back to life & enjoying them??
I've seen others use bags on 30's, 40's & 50's vehicles so it's really not new. As a matter of fact didn't lincoln use bags back in the 40's as factory equipment. Also I've seen a ton of "traditional" vehicles with radial tires & later powerplants - not developed at the time that their traditional vehicle was running in it "hot rod" state.
I just wish that we'd all just be a bit more "liberal" in the bashing of anothers car/truck that they obviously busted their ass on to get running.
Now I will get down off my soap box. Thanks for listening.
