Attended an enjoyable Cars and Coffee last Saturday morning with a 200+ cars and talked to car guys all morning. It was a beautiful morning so I decided to stop at a local Hot Rod store to pick up something. I was about 30 feet from the counter looking at some parts, when I heard one on the employees tell another one "Mike's outside drooling over that Cobra". I know Mike (employee) and the comment made me feel good and I was about to go outside and talk to him, based on this comment. Then some a$$-clown at the counter says "Yeah, but it's just a Kit Car" in a condescending tone. I said "Excuse me, it's a Factory Five, I built it. It has a custom designed chassis and suspension. It's not a Kit". (I could already feel this wasn't going to go well with THIS guy).
He said (again in a demeaning manner "Well, does it have a CSX number?"
I was done and left. I let him get to me. And I didn't talk to Mike (I really regret that).
I think he was driving a Monte Carlo "Intimidator"(?), wonder if it was real or a sticker, don't know. but I allowed him to ruin my morning.
