Re: Craigs List Rage
Another very common one. It can't be a 69 Z28 because it has power steering.

Re: Craigs List Rage
It can't be a real 409 car because it doesn't have 6" wheels or a boxed frame.....

Re: Craigs List Rage
Even the old world experts used to tell me the Olds 400's in my '69 and '70 442's couldn't be original engines..."so you own one but don't even know they came with them special 442 CID motors?" Never any sense explaining the 442 meanings through the years to these fellas either or getting into the Chevy/B-O-P engines and 454/455 thing...or Canadian Pontiacs etc, etc...

Re: Craigs List Rage
Several years back I had my Black 69 Camaro SS L78 4 speed car at a local Sunday afternoon gathering. As I opened the hood up the pillsbury doughboy with his greasy blond hair pulled back in a pony tail, asks me who put "that thar" smog pump on this car ? Only CA cars got a smog pump [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
I told him I bought the car that way so he would leave me alone. |

Re: Craigs List Rage
As long as we are talking about the low information crowd, This actually happened: A 'B' body mopar had an early (392) Hemi shoehorned in it's engine bay at a local show. Looked pretty good. The car had a BDS scoop for an air cleaner, similar to the one pictured. I overheard a fella telling his friend, while pointing at the scoop, "See, that is the engine size, 805." 8=B,0=D,5=S, No kidding! I started following this guy to see what other 'pearls of wisdom' he had, and he had plenty! That one is the only one I can remember though.

Yep. I tend to park and walk away from my car. The few informed people are a pleasure but the "experts" take all the fun out of it. |
