The negative side of "Miss Belvedere is with some
saying she is the most beautiful 57 Plymouth they have ever saw and that
she is a work of art, that they think she is worth $300.000 dollars, etc,
they are inspiring a lot of guys to NOT restore
their Plymouths, that they were going to restore. My cousin Rick who
is a General Motors fan and I were discussing the Tulsa Plymouth, and
he asked me " If glorifying the destruction of a brand new 57 Plymouth is
considered to be great, and a work of art, and the most beautiful car some
Plymouth guys have ever seen-----I am sure all my Chevy buddies would
agree with them". What would have been a failure for you Plymouth fans he asked
me? He said I'll bet if it was a two foot pile of rust you Plymouth guys
would say it was the most beautiful pile of rust, and you guys would have taken
thousands of photos of the pile of rust and probably all tried to buy the pile
of rust and put it on display.You and your Plymouth buddies are sick puppies

Hey guys, I disagreed with my cousin Rick, but
he did make me think a little more on the subject.!!!!!?????!!!!! If we make
this failure a milestone in Plymouth history, aren't we going in the wrong
direction? Aren't we glorifying the hundreds and hundreds of Plymouth
rusting in garages, barns, sheds, backyards? Aren't we encouraging the guy who
will not sell his rusty deteriorating Plymouth to someone who will restore
it, and making him think it is worth a fortune!!!!!!! This thinking could
work against us in the future?????
Don't get upset----------------just think about
it for a minute or two.!!!!!!!!??????
