I think the topic of this thread has probably jumped slightly off course here
The mission statement of Rumcars is to both keep records, and encourage the restoration and preservation of unusual microcars.
Messyman, Al and John- you are all over achievers in the best sense of the word in terms of getting these cars back to operational status. Yet you each have your own individual blend of strengths that you offer generously to the rest of us under achievers in different ways.
We generally do not demonstrate enough appreciation for our hero's efforts.
Please don't let that fact or a television actor's disingenuously inspired attack, or any reactive attempt to maintain political correctness in the aftermath of this to shed any negative light on your offerings that help restore and preserve our cars.
Your actions are right on target with Rumcars' mission statement.
Your words understandably less so considering your relative newbie status on this forum.
I can now make this statement with greater authority as it is my first post as a "Prolific Poster".
Never mind that I was one to suggest our switching to this terminology.
