Why is Joel Rosen so secretive?

AutoInsane · #1 08-14-2002, 07:17 PM

Why won't Joel Rosen disclose the number of cars he created? It seems that he knows the exact figures on the number of cars created. I can fathom him trying to make a buck authenticating his cars but why wont he disclose other info on his cars? What is the big deal? Why wouldnt he ever come on here and answer some questions? It is a shame he isn't more interactive with the people who love the cars he created....

Can we EVER get him to be a Special Guest at one of our Reunions?? It would be GREAT to Hear in His OWN WORDS about these Special Motion Cars!! Any hope for this to ever Happen??

I have spoken to "Mad Mike" who runs the 2nd gen. camaro site a couple of times about inviting Joel to a reunion. Mike knows Joel pretty well as he designed Joel's website. Joel said he might attend a future event, however I'm certain it take would take some $$'s to have him come. Apparently Joel is really not interested in the cars anymore and is concnetrating on his models. see www.motionperformance.com

I plan to have my L-88 powered '69 BM Camaro finished by next year's reunion and it would be great if Joel was there. I'm certain he has some fantastic stories. His interaction w/Zora along with some of the Sorprano's type stories as well sure would be interesting. I for one would gladly pay a higher entry fee to the Reunion in order to help offset any guest fees for Joel.

Hopefully some day Joel will make an appearance at a Supercar Reunion. He was invited to the first event, but we were unable to work out the details. Since then, the sYc, along with several of Joel's friends, have talked to him about it. Strange as it might seem, it appears that Joel is not really interested in the whole supercar scene. Tom

"It appears Joel is not really interested in the whole Supercar scene"

Sure is interested in the $1500 documentation fee though!!

I talked to him a few weeks ago on the phone, and he was very forthcoming about the number of "Manta Ray" corvettes and "Maco Shark" corvettes there are.
