Things people say when windows are rolled down
Since my A/C doesn't work, I usually have the windows down and arm hanging out the window. It's hot. But it does give the opportunity to talk with others on the road. On Friday, I pull up to a red traffic light, and an older guy in the lane next to me in an "old" beat up Chevy truck with peeling paint, probably something like a 2000 model, looks over at me and hollers "Hey!" so I say "Hi!" He looked at my truck and said "I'm gonna drive mine until it looks like THAT!" I said "it looks like you are well on your way" and he agreed and smiled.
Today I was going through the parking lot at Kroger grocery store, past the entrance, and a whole family walked really slow in front of and around my truck just smiling like crazies. The Mom of the group just said "I really like your car!" I said thanks.
I think most people can't believe it runs. I just dragged it out of a field and had the motor rebuilt, and started driving. That is a summary because those of you who look at my posts know the challenges I've had to get it to this point. Thank you guys for the great advice and information.
I do wash the windows every now and then. It's not patina, no. Finish by Chevy and Mother Nature.
