People!
So I just got back from a small local car show. No big deal. Some guy is there with his 5? year old kid. He's opening doors and letting the kid get in the cars. What is wrong with people. Also think I found a brand new scratch on the roof. Maybe it's an old scratch, maybe it was the light really bringing it out.
I love to show off the car, although few realize that the engine is something special, but man are some people STUPID. Me and Mom are the only members in NH. Don't think I've ever seen another one here. Sorry, I'm rambling, little PO'ed. |

Re: People!
Ya know, I bend over to look at somebodies car, I cover my belt buckle with my hand, just in case. I would never touch somebodies car.
Kevin, I bet this lady just went "whoops, sorry 'bout that". No clue. |

Re: People!
I just returned from a car show in Utah. A friend of mine had a '55 ford Crown Vic that was all custom including the old flames out the exhaust. He spent the whole day keeping kids (teens) off the car! He had them sitting on the car taking pics! I had no problems even though I was just 3 cars down the line from him. Just stupid people with no respect for other folks property!

Re: People!
Yea, it all comes to how you were raised. Got a 6 yr old, and he knows better than to touch the cars, even if they have toy models of the car sitting on the engine. Ignorance breeds ignorance.

Re: People!
At the car show in Kennewick, WA last month there were lots of violations of common sense. People were opening doors and sitting in the cars. Creepy. One woman got into Joe's C6 Fidanza !!
I would have lost it. Joe stayed pretty calm.

Re: People!
I sorta thought it was only car people that went to car shows. Guess 'tards go too.
