What does "Hammer Things" mean?

[73rallye440magnum]

I believe it is a reference of an inability to mind one's own business.

[alfaitalia]

She sure is purdy!  Good luck with your sale. That would be a cheap car over here!!

Would look great with the 15" Kelsey Hayes Cast Road wheels!

Is that the original fender tag?....Does not look quite right to my eyes...just a little bit to "sharply" pressed if you know what I mean. The text on them is usually a bit softer edged than that. But hey my 69 does not even have one so what do I know!

Have original, but it isn't purty...... This was on the car when I got it......

Bingo..... get tired of listening to people whine about how I "go through cars" or that I'm some flipper... If it wasn't for the fact I found something super cool, this 500 wouldn't be going anywhere.... It is a blast to drive..

Added to my Christmas list.. I would sell my E-Type, if I could, for this car..

But you do go through cars and you are some kind of flipper AKA "Operation Trade Up".  If you want people to mind their own business, then it might not be a bad idea not to post everything you do on public websites looking for responses and attention.  Just Saying

[JB400]

Nothing wrong with seeking improvement.  If he has his own classic car dealersjip, different story.

No, it is the judgemental attitude of others... It is almost like some think I should be "content" with what I have.. When I was a 16 year old boy back in 1978 I dreamed of having a Charger Daytona like my Dad when he bought one new in '69.. Now, there are different roads that one could travel to achieve that. I could have gone down the road of constantly pinching my pennies, never owning a single car until my ripe-old age of 45 ( when I traded my then  2  Chargers for the Daytona straight up ).... Man, what fun would have that been? To this day, I probably still wouldn't have enough money to buy one since, as time goes by when you are saving, the price of the wing-cars are going up, usually at a higher percentage...

So, for those that think I'm some sort of "flipper", so be it... I am the one who has had some bad-ass mopars (especially Chargers) during my day and now, have that Daytona and enjoy the living heck out of it...

Does that mean I have to stop of one dream? No,,,, feel sorry for those that think that one dream is enough... I've done all of this and haven't spent anywhere NEAR what the cars are worth, no where near....

And as far as sharing, I get more positive feedback than negative..... And the negative? I've learn to either address it (like here) or just let it go in one ear and out the next and wonder, are they really envious? mmmmmmm?

Whew... 

[ws23rt]

There are numerous folks in this world that enjoy this -car hobby- by acquiring as many cars as they can afford. --Owning and storing these cars is a burden they willingly pay by financial ability and choice.
Cheers to those that can enjoy that nitch in the world of collectibles.

What sparks my interest in these cars is that I grew up with them and the memories (for me) is feeling and driving a glimpse of my past.

I now can afford to play with those old memories but the "collector market" has pushed me aside.

After reading through this thread--(and if I was to buy this car)--I would be tempted to be silent about it.
If I were to be the next owner --a presumption about my motivation to buy it would lead --who knows where? Would I be inclined to slink away and enjoy my purchase in peace?

I admire -hemi68charger- for being willing to endure the gauntlet here.

Whew...  

I don't see what's so negative that you are addressing here, I just stated the obvious, the info that you post, Operation Charger, Challenger, Daytona clone, Charger 500, etc.  I'm not Jealous, I actually like the threads and like all the cars you have and had.  I don't care who owns what and how many and what or how many they have to buy and sell to get there.  I never implied anything like that.  But, Seems like you are concerned with people minding their own business and within the same conversation complaining that people are responding to you not minding their business.  I don't get it, reminds me of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TL7LaxyYz4
Also to your statement "Does that mean I have to stop of one dream? No,,,, feel sorry for those that think that one dream is enough" I did not say or imply this at all.  How are you getting this from my above statement.  If you want to call people out you should call out the right person.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNJlTehNxp0

...  But, Seems like you are concerned with people minding their own business and within the same conversation complaining that people are responding to you not minding their business. ...

I appreciate your diagnoses, but it is wrong.. I am not concerned with people minding their own business.. But, why do people have to cast a negative spin a person's positive experience? Just like you not getting me, I don't get that......... As grandma used to say, "If you don't have anything positive to say, don't say anything"... Believe me, there have been plenty of things on this discussion board over the years ( and others as well ) that I don't like or disagree with, but mums the word....

In all honesty, I have pretty thick skin. But, with that being said I'll defend myself too, especially when it refers to me in a negative or dishonorable way. I've done pretty well for myself and with another famous say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"......

[chargervert]

I for one, am amazed at the cars that Troy, and his patented "Troy trade "program have been able to aquire! And to be able to do so straight up and honestly in these times is quite the feat. Me having dealt with Troy personally, I can tell you that when you deal with Troy he is an honest guy who keeps his end of a deal 100 percent.

Try adding some airplanes to your yard Troy and wait for the negative Nancy's.

Hey Man, Sorry if I misunderstood what you were saying but I thought your opening line of this Thread of quote "Yeap, it is for sale.. Found something really cool a couple of months ago I'd really like for those that hammer things.." was a calling out of people who have an inability to mind there own business and I thought it was a weird thing to say while posting on a public forum where people will make comments whether positive or negative.  No disrespect, already said I liked all the cars and threads that you are involved with, I'm not a "hater", carry on and good luck with this new venture that you want to tease everyone here that somethings in the works but it's a big secret. Kinda like the breakfast club scene all over again.  Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to All

good luck for you  

[1969daytona]

If ill had the money right know i would have bought it.

Good luck with the sale.

[73rallye440magnum]

None of my business what you've got cooking, Troy, but wish I could toss gas on the fire and buy your Runner to support your dream. As already mentioned, I simply have not worked hard enough yet.

The success of one individual does not come at the expense or burden of another.

Best wishes to all navigating their own Mopar journey. Idolize the success being discussed here, don't envy it.

  Naaaaaa.. I spent 21 years around B-52 Bombers, F-16 Falcons and MQ-1 Predators.... I've had my fair share of aeroplanes.... I'll just keep the awesome F-16 model my wife got for me when I retired...

..e and buy your Runner to support your dream...

Thanks man.. It was pretty cool driving it this weekend actually around the community and going through the gears....

Yeap, I titled it that way as a foreshadowing of the potential negative ninnies like I have gotten in the past...

It doesn't make sense if you cut off 3/4th of what you said, here, I'll Help You Out.  You must work for CNN part time just taking partial quotes to make them work for your cause.  Good luck with you new venture.

You're point? there is no need to recopy the complete quote. I know what I wrote. All someone has to do, if do inclined, it scroll up..... I don't freakin' work for CNN and hate that news channel thank you.........

Thank you on the well wishes........... Should have just done that from the very beginning....

[70 sublime]

Sooooo how long till we find out what may be more cool to have than the Charger 500 ??

[odcics2]

Only thing better is a Nascar race 500/Daytona.

Depends on the sale of my 500 and Road Runner.. I have to sell those first.. This will be one of the chapters that doesn't include a trade albeit they lead up to this.......

[hemi68charger]

Oh believe me Mark, I'm focused..... 

[chaaargerb]

 Go for it Troy
Some people (me included) are hunters. We love the hunt. Nothing better than hearing about a old dodge sitting up in a guys garage checking it out and coming home with a hemi car.

   The wife only complained once about me filling the yard with "Classics" She said why do you spend all your time buying all these "Classics"?
I told her I could be at the bar chasing women. She never said anything about it ever again. Still married 30+years

[hemi68charger]

...I told her I could be at the bar chasing women. She never said anything about it ever again. Still married 30+years

Love it... In my case, it was already set in stone during our "courting".... Nothing gets between me and the cars... Been messing with them since I was 15 and nothing is going to change.. lol... Well, except maybe the cars...... Just ask Mark...

On a side note....... A no-sale on both... But have gotten some emails about them post-auction.. We'll see about a relist later......

[aerolith]

Hi Troy,

Lucky in car(d)'s unlucky in love!
I always buy high and sell low, I'm just not that good at 'wheeler dealing' myself?
Lost my house, wife and kids in a 'horror' divorce settlement so it must be cards for me then lol...

Jealousy is a terrible thing and the internet is full of it unfortunately.
