Whatever happened to...

...the PPG Pace Car SVX?

Does Subaru of America have it stashed somewhere, I wonder? It should make an appearance at the 10th Anniversary meet.

Arebub, did you try searching the Yahoo messages? I seem to recall someone knowing someone who knew someone who had a friend that thought they could get it there? Or am I thinking of Peppe's 980 HP mystery car?

Anyway, it would be FANTASTIC to get it for the meet. I've been thinking about doing my "unassembled" SVX model as the PPG car.

I didn't do a search. I do, however, recall someone saying that they believed the car was in Cherry Hill, New Joisy somewhere. I think it's nice that the SVX was used as a pace car, but, I don't really wanna see the PPG car in person. That color scheme just don't do it for me. The only thing worse, is YELLOW! AAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!

I think Peppe has gone the way of the Do-Do. Rightfully so.

Peppe gave a specific date that he would produce the pics, but he never appeared with or without them! (much to Eddycat's glee!)

My theory is that he briefly reincarnated himself here as "SVX Master Tech" for a day. When /where will he appear again?

Tech takes trek

Probably the mere THOUGHT of going toe-to-toe with Eddy again, disguised as someone who is SUPPOSED to know his stuff, probably scared a few hundred horsepower out of him! You know, I had my doubts when he used the term "supercharged blower".

...isn't that like being "damp wet"? Don

Well, if the new 'Master Tech' wasn't Peppe . . .

. . . doubtless he won't be back now.

Some of you guys are pretty heartless.

Haven't you ever been young, and stupid? I'm nearing 50, and some of the things I say still sound pretty moronic.

How 'bout cutting some slack?

Steve, first of all, I'm not taking your post personally. Mainly because all I did was ask to have some things clarified, and even in my last post regarding this fella, I said he may be legit. (I'm assuming that you are talking about SVXmastertech and not peepee.) If you go to SVXmastertech's stats, he's 50 years old, maybe 51 depending on dob.

As for cutting people that lie slack, nope, ain't going to happen. I can't stand liars. We all tend to stretch the truth occasionally, but a blatant lie I won't tolerate. And why should any of us have to? Being young and stupid does not excuse the fact that someone is a liar.

Yes. And now I'm old and stupid. Your point?

Hey eddy, I looked at your profile . . .

. . . and discovered that you're right at 4 years younger than my wife, so that would make you, uh . . . uhm . . . 26, right?

Now, was that a lie, or just stretching the truth?

Not much difference from here, Bud.
