I agree 100%  Have I said otherwise?

NOS is the requirement, and where do NOS parts come
from?  

If you own a 17xxx car with the 81 muffler, you need
to buy a 82 muffler for concours, where does that
muffler (NOS) come from?

Again, I agree 100%.  You make this statement as if I
have said otherwise!  This is why people are afraid to
post on the Internet (more so than not being sold
parts).  Because, James is reading your message and
probably thinking that "Marc has a problem with DMCH
making a profit".   * I DON'T *

faux DMCH conspiracy?  IIRC, Anything I have accused
DMCH of has never been disproved... And there are
limited "problems", They just keep getting discussed
over and over again.  I don't need to pat them on the
back, everyone else seems to have that covered.

In this particular discussion (the Forbes article) I
was just pointing out that it confirmed my claim that
the Concours event is nothing more than a marketing
tool.  Furthermore, I would not have a problem with
that if the masses accepted it for what it is.
