[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 15482944, member: 15703"] I guess I'm odd man out here. I rebuilt my 1969 Firbeird with a 150 piece craftsman tool kit. I don't like taking my cars to get worked on, but that's mostly because of a value proposition in that I can save hundreds if not thousands on certain types of work by attempting it myself. With that said, I would never think to tell somebody that liked cars that they "weren't a car guy" simply because they paid a professional to handle a build, or because they just like to take pictures or videos of cars. That precludes a huge segment of motoring enthusiasts. Basically anybody that isn't in to racing and modifying cars. Jeremy Clarkson is a prime example. He doesn't like and does not "get" car modification culture. He himself readily admits he's basically an ape when it comes to working on the cars. I don't think anybody in this thread would claim that he's not a car guy, but based on some of the definitions being laid out here, he wouldn't be. If you like cars, you like cars, regardless of what you do with them, how old you are or what "generation" you come from. [/QUOTE]
