LOL!!!
But, that said, I'm sure more than a few people, That had a vehicle in their youth, or lusted after Some model/ body style. And then 30-40 years later after having got used to the way new vehicle drive/handle and all the optional bells.. Go buy the vehicle they either had, or always wanted ,with rose colored glasses, and then when they finally get it tagged and legal, take it for a drive and go, holy crap. this thing drives/rides like a pyle.Last edited by Eric; January 2, 2020, 09:45 PM.

some guy came to look at the 455 pontiac once, started telling me how his
cousin had a bad@ss 68 GTO but he wrecked it. see, apparently he was racing
a guy on the freeway one night, and when he went to turn on the switch to activate
the fuel injection he accidentally turned on the switch for the positraction instead
and the car went sideways into the wall at 140mph.................
yeah.
it was all i could do to keep a straight face as i ushered him out of my garage
with the promise to 'consider his offer and call him later'. wonder if hes still waiting?

how bout the guy telling me that 78-87 Gbodys are unitized and have no frame....
or the same guy telling me he was looking for a 366 truck motor to build, when
i asked why he said he wanted to build a really small big block, "because the
powerband is totally different"............
or the same guy telling me how he drove home a car with a 6-71 blower after
it chucked a belt because "it will keep running as long as you dont stop"...
or his friend who bragged that his heads had been "hoaged"...pretty sure he
meant "hogged" but he didnt know how to pronounce it since he read it in a
magazine article.....
and that same guy whos endless brag all about the 327 in his 80's yellow stepside
was "fast on the freeway" and could outrun everything else....despite the fact that
he once took off his sparkplug wires to clean and then the truck wouldnt start, and
he came over and pestered us (in the middle of a 454 swap) until i went over and
found TDC #1 and rewired it for him.....
swear to g@d we are SURROUNDED by idiots...............
