    "Why ? It's just an old truck"
    When told a passenger to get her muddy feet off my dash in the 59 Apache...

    Another time.. A gal was shocked my 57 Sedan Delivery was appraised at $7K, while her 3 or 4 year old K car was only worth 2

      The worst question is always from my wife. "Why do you have to show your a$$ every time you get in your truck?"

      If I really have to explain, you will never understand that a man has only two important things in his life, showing off and sex.

        Working on it AGAIN?

        Why don't you buy a new car?

        What kind of mpg does it get?

            A hot rodder will brag. A racer will be very quiet.

              Does it run? (usually the answer is no)

                  That is SO on target. Superman's wife across the street, she said "I want to drive your pretty red car."

                  NO. HELL, no. Drive your husband's pretty red car (the Corvette). I guess he won't let her drive it.

                    the gas mileage questions gets me all the time...... "Why don't you get something with better mpg?"

                    or - "Why don't you have any door handles?"

                    or - "Why are those back tires so wide?"

                    or - "You must know about cars...Why is my junk not running right?"

                    or - "Your car sounds like its gonna die when it idles - It needs new plugs, doesn't it?"

                      My friend says you know a lot about cars. Can you tell me what's wrong with mine?

                            It's missing because it's missing two cylinders.

                              Can I put lambo doors on it? Asked by a neighbor with a 73 Pontiac Granville.

                                Older Buicks had crank throws normal.. When they went to even fire around the late 70's, they ground the offending throw and made it even..

                                Yes I get your jab about missing 2 cylinders...
