Hi All,

Hopefully all our in a good place without monies hanging out on this  
one.  This thread has ben an interesting one to follow.
My 2 cents.
Will it hurt the hobby?  I dont think so.
Will it make repop makers think twice?  I think so.  They should.   
Conduct business fairly and by the book.
Will it possibly reduce the cost of some of the crazy prices we pay  
for parts?  Maybe.

All is my speculation.

The one fact, Chrysler MUST protect and enforce their trademark.  If  
they do not take a hard line on this, then the next time it will be a  
bigger and more blatant violation by someone else.  In that case  
Chrysler will have a less than favorable ability to defend their  
trademark moving forward if its clear they are "selectively" enforcing  
it.
If that were to happen they will lose.

None of us  want Chrysler losing.  We want Chrysler winning.

I honestly havent shed a tear to Laysons being pinched for this given  
my limited experiences with them.

Cheers,
