      precicely why i wait till the car is about ready to be done to show some of the ideas i had for my project..

      there are some guys with big money and have no problem biting an idea on here faster than you can get yours out..



      ive already seen it on here a coupla times.

      I haven't revealed everything either but I do think that's what this site is all about. I have no problem with people using my ideas because I have done the same.

      thats the thing... i dont mind if they use my ideas..

      BUT.. not when they look at a BUILD THREAD and copy the idea before the poor guy can finish doing it himself!

      but for the most part those things make the scene grow.. but damn have the deicency to let the man shine who came up with a good idea.. look at the Twist camaro.. when it came out with the adjustable wing. look at how things are now.. theres quite a few with that look.
      and i recognize he brought that idea to the table and was awesome.
      (if he wasnt the first then he made it the best)

      a good idea is a good idea.. but be original.. some of the big money builders know what im talking about... you need to stop biting.
      dont get me wrong.. most are leading the way as far as ideas.. but theres some suspect stuff i saw over the last couple of years.
      MY ideas werent stolen.. and ive gotten good ideas from folks on here.. but ive noticed some moments from watching.

      hold your cards some.. at least til your about done.

      you dig?

      We don't worry about hiding stuff but it has bite us no doubt. We render the Trans Am with big snowflakes, all of a sudden big snow flakes are out. We render a 69 TA and all of a sudden another almost duplicate is out and claimed to be the first one even though it is not even started before our car debuts at SEMA. The Prodigy Bar Roll Bar............been copied a few times but everyone Fs it up. One 69 Trans Am even has a very similar roll bar and construction. We were kind enough to post the pics of how the bar is built so they could see exactly how it is done.

      I was told some years ago Plagiarism is the purest form of flattery. And now I believe it!

      In our business, if no one copies you, your not doing anything right!

      Where do I find the build thread on this car? I like the vintage trans-am look on pro-touring cars. Yellow wheels would be different. Can any one photochop yellow wheels on this car? I am having my 72' chevelle numbered and lettered like a old racecar in a few weeks. I like your clone big x!!

      BigX69 question.

      Have you thought of doing a "YearOne" style of Camaro?

      I have seen a few pix of this car and read a bit about it. Seems sweet and unique.

      Just curious.
