I have read posted questions about items that are being restored and the comments were not to worry about it or some comment about the person being "one of those perfect restoration guys" that they will never understand. I tried to bypass those answers by asking a simpler question. The result was just as bad. The truth is, it doesn't matter how you ask.

I disagree; the truth is that it DOES matter how you ask. As for the rest, yes you will get those responses from some people here....ignore them, they aren't the ones with the knowledge to answer your question anyway.

This isn't a place for the meek or the easily offended. Not saying that's right or wrong, but it is the way it is. If you are honest and polite, you will find that you will get answers to most of your questions and, over time, you will know who's opinions to trust.

I am not a Mopar expert by any means, though I have done research related to my particular car which I happily share when I can, but I have been here long enough that I know dozens of members, who they are, what they are like and what they know. If I need to know something I know who to ask or, in the case of a general posting, who's advice/info is most likely to be correct.

Moparts isn't a gentle "feel good" place all the time, but it will surprise you on occasion....and it is the largest Mopar website in the world with a great many knowledgeable and helpful members if you perservere. I can't imagine how much more difficult my restoration would have been without the help of the membership here, and I've made some friends (I think! ) at the same time.
