Since we seem to be the guys with the "oddball" cars, getting silly or strange comments about our cars, I was curious if anyone here did the same thing....To the Ford, GM or other owners.
I used to be a Chevy guy. I wasn't into production numbers or OEM correct stuff though. I've never been into Imports, Fords or anything else. Sometimes I go to "all makes and models" type of shows and like to turn the tables on the other guys.
I've gone up to Camaro owners and asked them "What year is this Vega?"
I've seen Datsuns and called them Toyotas.
I've done all of this on purpose just to get a reaction. I L O V E the looks I get from the confused people. My personal favorite was at a show in Redding CA. There was a nice 71 Charger with about 6-7 people around it. I walked alongside the car, looked under the hood and said..."This is the nicest Mustang here..."
It was as if the music screeched to a halt, everyone froze in place then looked my way in total amazement.
I cracked up laughing and walked off.
