It's just a Street Fords Special rehashing existing stories into a new special just like "Genuine GT" "Restored GT" "Unrestored GT" "Modified GT" etc etc....

Every GT featured by Street Fords ends up in at least 4 or 5 mags, same story, same spelling mistakes, same pictures.

The Aussie muscle car enthusiast is the same company.
good to buy their specials only if you don't want modified cars.

Yes, they say that grammar is the difference between knowing your ***** & knowing you're ***** !

4 posts out of the total 8 posts in this thread (now 5 and 9 respectively) discuss grammatical issues, so i guess so!

Either that or some are just having a bit of harmless fun

I don't want to be a 'grammar policeman' but for goodness sake, surely the average punter knows the difference between bring/brought & buy/bought.

Many posts are written in haste & have errors & it really doesn't matter in the great scheme of things. But! & it's a big but, some posts are a so bad that we can have trouble understanding what the question or comment relates to.

It seems to many, that spelling & punctuation don't seem to matter any more & are almost perceived as 'lost arts'.

Yeah I agree with you that some posts can be hard to decipher because the grammar is non existent but in this case I think everyone could easily get the gist of what he meant.

There is too much criticism for paltry issues that don't really matter it seems. I have, and I'm sure everyone else has posted something that when you read it back later you say to yourself, "I really should have proof read that", but you don't want someone getting on your case for it.

There are now 7 posts out of 11 that are off subject. Just saying........ Peace brothers!

we've all come from different backgrounds, and we all are better at some things than others, so why is there the need to be jerks

I knew what he meant, and I suspect everyone in this thread did too

I'd rather a nice guy with rubbish grammar than the reciprocal, any day

Correct grammar and punctuation is the difference between "I helped my Uncle Jack , off a horse" and "I helped my uncle jack off a horse."

Maybe your uncle should change his name now that grammar isn't so important.

Or sell his horse.
