Funniest phrases/questions/comments you've heard about your Mopar

that's excatly what they are 49 years after the fact.
 
Had one guy ask what year my chevelle was. And this was after he went over and looked at the badging that says satellite...
 
The question I get the most about my Charger is "What kind of mileage does that get?"

I either say "Who cares?" or "Who knows?", but if I'm feeling goofy I say "Awesome. Better than my old Civic."
 
one time i was in my 70 dart swinger340 at a gas station and 2 good ole boys were aurguing over weather my car was a torino cobra or a fairlane i was complety lost on that one then one asked me which one it was i told him a 70 dart he then looked at his buddy and said thats wierd havin those ford scoops on there
 
I was cruisin around at a car meet, a cheby guy said nice RR ......... there is Satellite all over the car .......... i just said yep and you know what i have the only one made with 4 doors ..... LOL
 
I live on an Island, with a bunch of people who drive their high class mercedes. Whenever they see my '73 Charger they go, Sweet Chevelle, or Nice Challenger.

Does it have a v6?

Is it a 302?

Nice car, is that yours?

Then I get the kids that mommies buy them their mercedes or BMW's

My Mercedes SL 500 would smoke your rust bucket.

Nice car but look at that rust.

The funny thing is that they don't understand how Freakin Amazing my car would be if I put the same amount of money they paid for their car into mine.

One burnout (in the school parking lot right after school) solved the problem, word got around and now people beg to see my car.

My friend has a '70 chevelle, it's a cool *** car but it's all show no go. I crack jokes with him like "Bow ties are for little boys, or You must like fixing cars - why? - you bought a chevy."

I had one guy ask what year of 442 it was too... I just said it's a 65 & smiled
 
because "holden" (chev) and "ford" are the main companies here in Aus as chrysler pissed off years ago. i always get "hey what motor is in that a 350ci? i just laugh and say nah its a 8.3L work that one out.
 
I got a good one, I had a guy trying to impress me with his knowledge and about a car he knew of that had a 426 MAX WEDGE HEMI. I asked "which one is it"?
 
I went to look at a '66 Charger once that had a 383 Hemi......
 
I was at a party with some friends, one of which was getting picked up only to find the getaway car had a flat. I guess they had been monkeying with the spare for 15 or so minutes before I walked up and couldn't get it on. I guess because they knew I worked on my Chevelle myself, monkey #1 yells "thank god, Jake is here! Someone who actually knows about cars, maybe he can figure this out"

I walked up and flipped it around. Tightened the lugnuts up and dropped it down. They were trying to put it on backwards the whole time. :head_smack:

A lot of people thinking my chevelle is a gto, and I haven't even driven the charger yet but already at least half the people I've talked to about it have given me the classic "all she needs is a rebel flag on the roof and 01 on the doors!"... :head_smack: lol

I got pulled in my 68 charger years ago for something bunk. I hand the cop my registration which only has 1968 dodge on it. He demanded to see the 'right' reg, because it was a Chevy chevelle. We started arguing, and an older cop showed up. Upon being informed it was a dodge, the first cop just walked away. Not a word...
A female cop once told me ' you need mufflers on this car' I pointed out I had two, it should be extra quiet...
My favorite though, was blowing the doors off a chevelle that daddy's rich kid brought to Napa cruise. When we got back to the 7-11, I heard his buddies say, 'you got beat by that ugly Pontiac?'

Get that one a lot too, I just tell them "I get smiles per gallon."
 
Now granted mine are both in the ugly-and-rusty-as-hell phase base model 318 autos, but my wife's 71 Charger currently runs and drives and is dependable enough to be a daily driver. I've replaced the entire fuel system, entire brake system and various repairs. The one that ticks me off the most is "Want to sell it? I'll give you $1500.00 for it".

What kind of car is it?
GTX
Oh a Pontiac.

What kind of car is it?
GTX
Blank stare.
Plymouth.
Blank stare.

I was at a cruise and this guy came up to me and said, love that shade of green. Thanks I said. Really hate the tan interior though, and walks away. My buddy beside me yells at him: Hey, where's your GTX??

Lady about my age pulls up beside me at a light. I really love those old Mopars she says grinning. They bring back a lot of memories, winks, and drives off.

Pretty blond pulls up beside me at a light.
Love your car and drives off.
I'm not married!!!! :laughing7:
 
I also get "What does 'Mopar' mean?" all the time.

At this point I answer "It's the name of my religion." :)
