Super damn important! Clunker bill being drafted

I heard about this through my SEMA email updates. You need to follow this link and drop House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a line so we can get this thing defeated. Don't waste time posting about how it sucks - just send her an email! Do it now!

How many of these threads are we gonna have!!!!

 

Sorry about that. I guess it gets the point across. Sorry about the reposting, just a knee jerk reaction I guess. Sorta like the government drafting "we're gonna sleep with your wife and or girlfriend legislation."

 

Not to promote my own thread, but I just sent my letter. Have you sent yours?

 

she is one of the biggest threats to this nation.i sent mine.

 

yes i have!

 

I did .

 

Lady Bird Johnson got thousands of junk yards in this country with valuable cars to us crushed and turned into Toyota's. Nancy Pelosi is a threat to us all who build hot rods and custom cars. They go way too far with proposals like this.Next thing they will propose will be you can't register a old car.Get those old clunkers off the road. YIKES!

 

Sent mine

 

Sent mine.

 

this will be labeled as 'politics' and this thread will disappear

 

yes and the foul word in the title is against the rules also. C'mon guys my kids lurk here. BTW sent my e-mail and posted in another thread.

 

Hmmm...if their true intent is to get inefficient cars off the road, and spur new car sales, they'd be better off writing the bill to focus on cars built in the last 20 years and have been recently registered, etc. Basically exclude classic cars.

It's doubtful most politicians would actually understand the issue.

 

Get all the "old clunkers" out of Washingtom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

man the way the f-bomb gets dropped around here you might want to rethink the lurking kids.i read the user agreement but it seems that part gets over looked.

 

Just sent mine....

 

this is politics that relate directly to all of us, this is someone who wants to destroy our hobby now!

 

I sent mine. THIS is how our country's government SHOULD work...grassroots feedback to guide our legislators. Let's hope they listen...

 

mine is in.

 

Sent mine in and I hope that everyone else does the same and also encourages all of the friends and family to do the same.

 

If you're worried about the word "damn", I'd lock your kids in a cave. Have you listened to kids ( even real , real young) talk today?????????

 

Sorry about dropping the "D - bomb." I figured this one was so mild that it wasn't even considered profanity these days.

 

My two cents went to Pelosi, out of my cold dead hands will they remove my coupe from the street. .........

 

OK, lets get some common sense going:

1st No legislation has passed

2nd If passed, any vehicle would be turned in VOLUNTARILY for a cash refund
(so, don't worry about your cold dead cliches)

3rd Nobody in their right mind is going to trade in a '57 Chevy or a "40 Coupe, etc....the good stuff has more value to hobbiests than what a rebate would yield

4th 95% of all the cars turned in would be Japanese stuff, or crap like Chrysler FWD K-cars, minivans, Granadas, Crapmobiles, etc.etc.

 

This is a good point , BUT , with politicians things start out in an innocuous manner so as not to arouse protest . Then another small step , then another until ..... well , you've guessed it already , old cars are only in museums

 

All these bills are vehicles for that pork that will be tacked on by Pelosi and the like. The bill is irrelevant to them, it is the pork they want.

 

I sent mine, I only hope everyone else understands the importance of this. If something like this were to pass, we will all have to pay "Barrett Jackson" prices for every old car left. I don't know about the rest of y'all, but i damn sure can't afford that!!!

 

This site is LOCKED OUT (which is unfortunate by the way) on both their computers but they hang out with me while looking sometimes. Usually just looking at pics and stuff. The no foul language in the title rule is a good one cause they will see every title while looking for a thread to view the pictures in. Sorry for the rant that is OT to the post. I'll be the firest one to tell you I've dropped a bomb or two in posting in the threads but the title rule makes since to me. Thanks and sorry.

 

I sent mine. Keepem rollin!

 

Keep in mind that taking a car to scrap is voluntary....and doesn't pay much.....but we still lose lots of good parts cars AND some buildable cars to it every day. This bill could pose a similar threat if not worded right.
