Cool how about this, that I heard at a car & truck show today?

Well, I had heard earlier in the week, that there was supposed to be a big old car and truck show this weekend, only a few miles from my house. Well, I get there and there is not even a handful of vehicles there. There were maybe 5 classics, an 05 Saleen Mustang and about 3 ricers. I thought for a second, that I wasted my time, but at the ver end of the line, there was a 51 red, 5 window, short-step. OK, the owner was somewhere from TN and an older man, (say mid 70's) and maybe he'll belong to this forum and maybe he will get corrected. I told him that I was working on a 55 1st series and he said he had some rear fenders, but they wouldn't fit my truck, because it was a different body. OK, now I wasn't trying to be a wise ass or anything, but I told him, that the rear fenders were the same from 47-55 1st. He argued with me for a while, but I'm sorry, I DID know what I was talking about on this subject. Then, he tried to tell me that the 54 body was the only one that had a 1st and 2nd series. He was convinced that the 55 was a totally different body!! He almost pissed me off! I just walked off while he was talking, I just couldn't stand there and listen to his nonsense and I just figured I'd let everyone who reads this, know what some of us have to go through.
