blind optimism from the faithfull still can't overcome a brand with next to nothing to sell to the enthusiast public. If and when it comes about it will likely be the true "last call" as the dying breath of a once great brand.
I wish it wasn't so as I have been buying the brand since my 1969 GTX bought new in 1969.

that's great. so now they want us to build our own rides with crate engines. nice touch but I usually buy my cars already assembled.

Agreed. They better be able to sell enough trucks to keep them afloat until they can get a car that someone will actually buy.
