He hasn't been infected yet. Don't get used to it.

Rolling down pa turn pike and a 2014 vert pulls up on my right side. He throws me a 2 finger Victory wave. We ran next to each other till 80 mph. My exit came up quickly so I exited. I saw his plate 20th 1. Yeah his had a few so that was certainly a compliment.

I think it's because of where I live, NE Florida, that so many older retarred guys know my '72 vert, and they always ask about it....even the kids....I guess because it's a custom car, I dunno, but the thing sure gets noticed.....most often with the comment about what YEAR is that....and I reply 'what year do you like?" it has parts on it from '65 through '94 and that is just the VETTE OEM parts, if you include aftermarket, better up it to this year.....
