I was at a local car show last year. The majority of cars were late 1960-1970's muscle cars with a few occasional 1950's American cars mixed in. In the middle of this was a guy who brought his early 1960's Jaguar E -type convertible (right hand drive).

It was as if all the other cars did not even matter. His car was spotless and the paint was perfect( even better that it was on a British racing green E-type). So, I start a conversation about his detailing regimen and he is quite informed. He was a low key person who took passion in not only restoring the car but detailing it himself to an incredibly high standard. We talked shop about the car and different detailing products for about 20 minutes.

This ended when some a$$hat decided to peel out of the car show in his badly swirled up, poorly restored 1960's muscle car and almost wrecked it and came close to hitting some pedestrians. He and I exchanged the same look. Some people will never get it.........
 
A friend of mine (who is a car guy and I really thought he knew better) and I were looking at another friends car that had some hail damage when he reached over and started rubbing his finger on a dent that was covered in dirt. I said "don't scratch his paint all up" and he replied " it's clear coat I can't hurt it" so I said "so clear coat paint can't be scratched?" He said "well you just buff it out". I stopped talking at that point thinking "why buff if you don't have to?" This guy is very knowledgeable about cars and even used to work in a body shop, but I guess he under the same misconceptions as everyone else.

.....Your post reminds me of a thread over at L4P - people asking exotic owners crazy stuff.

DLB

Not a fan of L4P. Too many arrogant jerks who think they're better than the world. Most of those idiots deserve whatever they get.

LOL must be really bad for you and your LP:xyxthumbs:

And let me guess the random dude that comes up to you out of nowhere when you're pumping gas in the car and makes you almost have a heart attack?

Happens with little kids all the time! " Hey mister" :eek: Then their dad has to pick me up off the floor
 
Year 2000: Wife buys a new car, got MORE than the original purchase price for her trade-in...'77 Toyota Celica 'Fastback'. Orginal red SS paint.

And 'people' say keeping a vehicle 'cleaned up' is a waste of time.

Nuff said...

Comments I've heard through the years:


  • Clear coats protect the paint so I don't have to wax it anymore
  • Washing your car too often will wear away the finish
  • The special coating the dealer applied lasts for 5 years
  • Dish washing liquid is better and cheaper
  • WalMart carries premium products
  • I've always used the wax from the automatic car wash
  • Do everything by hand it comes out better

You been talking to my BIW haven't ya? To add insult to injury, he lives across the street.

I have two funny stories:
At a gas station: this huge guy that apparently works there runs up behind my little wife and she thinks she is gonna get car jacked and then he starts spraying crap on the car without asking while talking about a free demo. She told him to get the hell away from her car.

Same gas station: she is in a G500 and the owner starts asking how she can afford such a car. Her response in a nutshell: work hard get a good degree and work hard. Next time I will have her use the lottery line. Its more appealing.

If that ever happened to me I would be surprised if I didn't give him a nice pop in the jaw. That'd shut him up.

Granted, my little 5'2" wife would probably do the same thing. :laughing:
 
Questions and my answers when I'm in the Murcie.

How much does it cost?---- It's not for sale or I won it in a raffle.

How many miles a gallon does it get?------ It gets 8 gallons a mile

What do you do for a living?---- I'm a pimp

Can I sit in your car?------ Can I come over and sit on your couch tonight?

There are other rude and vulgar requests as well.:rolleyes:
