Happened last night, I was going to a movie with a girl friend with the top down (Hawaii) in my Rio 04.

We were pulling into a parking lot and some dork in a little S10 pickup and his buddy were pulling out. The driver said loudly "your car looks like mustard"

I responded, "Gee that's nice, can't you come up with something more original than that?" and drove on.

Was amusing actually

Later,

Mark

I was hoping someone would come by and explain this.

Next time you see an old MG-TC, Jag XK-120 or anything with knock off wheels, read what it says on the hub of each wheel.

In the sixties, everyone would have gotten it. <sigh>

So back in the 1900's the only aftermarket wheel manufacturer for the model T's was "Undo"?

Um, no. Old roadsters commonly had "knock off" hubs on the wheels to make changing them faster. You'd hit the hub with a (big) hammer & they'd spin off on the threads. There was commonly a legend UNDO with an arrow to indicate which way the hub came off on that particular wheel.

At BlockBuster Video:
9 year old: "Daddy, daddy look a 007 car!"
Dad not knowing what it was: " Well maybe, well could be,
well I guess it is."
I was standing there with the newest 007 shootem up game with a big smile on my face thinking there is the future car enthusiast that is gonna educate his father on what a cool car is!

Went to a friends church;
During the sermon the preacher talked about material things such as expensive cars.
When I got to parking lot there was a large group of people standing around my car checking it out.
One woman says:
"I had to stop and see a multi million dollar car, cause I have never seen one up close."
all this while others then proceded to get into a big SUV's and such that cost quite abit more than my car.
