members w/running vs non-running f bodies poll
After hearing about the mild turn out at the nats due to many members workign on their cars, i was just curious and decided to make a poll to see the overall spread of members with running f bodies compared to members with non-runnign f bodies, and by running i mean as in with a 5 min notice you could drive the car anywhere in NJ safely.
I am on the non-running list, and its been about a year...
EDIT: i just realized now i should have put a third choice for those who dont even own an fody(ls1 swap cars, imports,grandprix, etc) and i cant seem to edit the poll, so sorry, admins, if you can, add a 3rd choice for "no f-body" please.

Actually, you would need 4 choices.
1 - Running
2 - Not Running
3 - No Fbody
4 - Both 1 and 2.
Put me down for 4!
