Default Re: F/S Lee Pearl's 1970 442 W-30 Convertible 4 speed

I really hope the last couple of posts were in gest. Lee is a terrific person and he had the pinnacle of Oldsmobile cars. No one forced anyone else to read the 16 page post---if you weren't interested, simply choose not to read it. I, for one, followed that car during the posts of the restoration and Lee's showing his car to the public. I'm and Olds guy through and through so I had a definite interest. I also like many other makes and models, that is why I join in on these forums---to communicate with others who share the same passion I do for these old cars. I may not be able to play in the same league as many of the "players" here, but that doesn't mean I can't follow their cars or chime in with an opinion. If my opinion is of a negative nature, I may choose not to post, or if I do it will be in a polite and friendly manner. The car Lee had was certainly worthy of every award it won or any article written about it or any compliment he may have received in person. The new owners have an outstanding collection and that is probably the best place for this car. Lee was totally transparent about everything he did concerning this car's history, his long time ownership, and it's subsequent restoration. I think he deserves a little more respect than what the last two posts are inferring.
