After reviewing Hammer's post offering his car for sale, I have concluded the following:

1. It was OT but understandable. It could have been moved immediately and that might have been the end of it.

2. The negative comments about the car were not necessary and rather rude. I don't go rummaging through Auto Trader or the news paper classifieds to call people up to tell them I don't like their stuff or I'm not interested.

Lots of people post pictures and descriptions of their cars before during and after doing a lot of work on their cars. When I see a nicely prepared Targa, I admire the effort, skill and craftsmanship that went into the project. I compliment the owner on the quality of the work.

I do not reply by saying: I don't like Targas! So a targa is not my preference but what do I know. That's just my opinion and I won't ask anyone to subscribe to or agree with my subjective opinion. Those who contributed to the insulting response owe an appology for such insensitivity.

For the record: I am just fine with making fun of some of those rediculous eBay ads. Some of them are truly butt-ugly.
