Default Re: Thoughts on this Hobby

Depends in large part on our parent’s life style when we got our first cars. Rich kids had sports cars tended by foreign car garages, kids with working parents got Fords and enjoyed building them to go faster than sports cars.
Those kids with turtle neck sweaters transported golf clubs and snow skis while blue collar kids carried tow ropes and chain falls. The well to do wore tweed coats and frequented the services of manicurists while greasers wore Levi’s and cleaned thier fingernails with toad stickers. Life styles represent choices that are made for us by our environment and our peers.
