2. People on a tight budget that buy these classics cheap. Then try to keep them running cheap until they totally trash a fine car.
Unfortunately, the second group seems to be growing faster and taking over the forum. A lot of bad advice is mixed in with the good. I'm looking for a new forum home dominated by the first group.

Just because you came up with these two generalizations certainly doesn't mean that your opinions are all-encompassing, or even accurate. There are certainly folks that are in the two camps you mentioned, but that certainly isn't the only 2 options. Not sure either of those are even dominate.
If you want to take your toys and go play somewhere else, the net offers you that option. Not sure why folks always want to make that a big announcement.
Go hang out at Benzworld for awhile if you want to get a snootfull of irritation......
And watch out, you sound a little like our obnoxious forum elitist. You certainly don't want that CR......
**edit**
Actually, I think option #1 is probably the dominate forum member. There are just different levels of expenditure ability
