yeah theres this notion espoused by pop culture that the only cars that are worth a damn have round headlights.
This is why american iron is losing more and more of the sports car market. You pick up a hotrod, a car craft, any magazine out there on the shelf and you rarely rarely rarely see a car that doesnt have round headlights (meaning old cars) given any kind of coverage and respect. I was around lots of street racing in my teens and the whole car culture and I never knew anyone with any of the cars usually in these magazines. I never knew anyone with a 69 camaro, a shoebox chevy, anything like that. All i saw were fox/sn95 mustangs, 3rd/4th gen f bodies, turbo regals, 80s malibus, ford lightnings, and the occassional turbo mopar ugh i could go on and on, ive thought about writing a letter to hot rod or whatever and telling them that to your average car guy a 69 camaro or shoebox chevy is a museum peice and that their magazine is catering to old dudes thus ensuring their demise. The average 16 year old kid looking to get into this hobby pics up a hot rod and sees these old cars hes never actually seen on the street before or he can pick up a super street and see his neighbors daily driver civic that is for sale at a price he can afford, whats he gonna end up with?
