In 2017, if you fly a confederate battle flag, you are either racist, or don’t care if people think you are, but the General Lee has context.

Was that thing just straight unrestorable trash before they jumped it and decided to give it one last chance at glory? Or was it in decent shape and they just ruined it?

Conditional Access - basically a “dongle” card that responds to a security challenge with an appropriate response.
