  • Would you look at this?



    Ever had someone come up and admire your car and you just wished they'd leave after a few mins?

    I'll start: I had a guy on the 2002 Powertour strike up a conversation about my Mustang. I was already a little flustered because I had broken a headlight ring on the trip to Saint Louis and I wanted to repair it before nightfall. Anyways, he keeps asking me questions like, "why don't you put a boss 429 in your car?," and "You got the boss302 right now right?" (car was just a 302 windsor)
    This really went on for 20 minutes until I basically stopped answering the guy. He then moved on to the next victim.

                            Ed, Over the years I have had the opportunity to park a few cars at the side of the road in places that were not meant for parking. I was clipped by a car back in the 70's as I was leaning over the fender trying to get my 68 Firebird started. I was not hurt but that has been my biggest fear since then, the idiot that can't drive and be aware of their surroundings.
