I can deal with the talk (I'm pretty quick at throwing it back), but to actually prop your butt up on my fender while talking to people about your car, shows an incredible lack of respect. I asked him nicely to stop and he thought it was funny. I couldn't even leave the car and look around the show as he kept doing it. In 27 years of car shows, this was the first time this had happened. I guess it's just the way things are changing in the world. I'm pretty mellow, but I can see how someone with a short fuse would resort to a slugfest.
Yeah Mike, That would burn me up if I had to tell the guy to get off my car more than once. I don't think I have that much diplomacy. Anybody that brings a milktruck to a car show is more likely just wierd than an actual car guy. Sounds like you found him. That guy probably doesn't get many trophies at shows. Might be why he is such a jerk. I'm sure he gets a lot of passing curiousity about it and that's about it. I would have a hard time voting for it for "Best of Show". It would be different if that milktruck was Pro Streeted ... OK ... I'm bracing myself for all the hate posts from the milktruck owners. Flame on! PS ... my grandfather was one of the last home-delivery milkmen in the Chicago metro area. As a kid, I always thought he had a pretty cool job. Still ... doesn't make me want to own a milktruck.
