Rude guy at a show...

Which do you do first?

 

I had plenty of that at the local cruise here. My wheels did not fit on the front, so I ran the old ones. So all day I mingled in the crowd around my truck. All I heard was comments from douche bags about how my wheels didn't match and how it was unfinished. Also heard someone ask why I would enter it. Funny that comment came from a dude who didn't enter his because it was suppose to rain.

 

Maybe he had a SBC at home on an engine stand, just waiting to go in. He was probably speechless because you hurt his feelings.

And his horse!

 

I was at the LA Roadsters Show fathers Day in Pomona a few years back and a guy with one arm was walking around with his wife/girlfriend. We were out in the swap area and this guy lets out the loudest fart. My friend and I turned and looked at him and he looked right at us with a smug look on his face and no remorse or embarrassment. He did say sorry or excuse me or anything. I felt bad for his gal.

Same goes with the loud belchers in puplic. Keep that crap in the privacy of your own home.

 

That's what so nice about the pussification of the American male... You really don't have to worry about how rude you are or how big of an asshole you are to other people, you know none of the fella's you disrespect will ever just jump on you and kick the living shit out of you.

 

Yes, one must display good etiquette at car shows. no farting or scratching ones private parts or spitting.
I once had a conversation with Bob McCoy, the hot rod artist and former race car driver. At the Good Guys Show at Pleasanton he presents the Real McCoy Award for the most Authentic Hot Rod at the show, and he told me of all the shit he has to hear from the high dollar/ 1 800 car owners . They always point out what they perceive to be flaws in the cars or in his judgment. Most all of them tell him how much money they have invested which is a big turnoff to him. I personally think he has good judgment as he awarded my car the award in 1998.

 

perfect

 

Im laughing my ass of that this one!! To Funny man

 

im with u bad bob

 

What a jerk. I don't even do that when someone insults my car. I just ask which shitbox is yours to the guy? If he's dumb enought to point it out, I bust out in laughter. Because it's always something horrible

 

Viva Le Primer Nats

 

Maybe it wasn't his truck at all.

 

I go to most(all) of the shows that Bad Bob mentioned, mostly because they are free my and friends go there.We admire the cars we like, laugh at the WTFs, and ignore the rest.We have dinner or lunch and a few cool ones, it is a good reason to get the car out and see your friends.Come on back, look for the satin black 40 ford coupe, I will have a cool one for you also. Dont let a few A holes ruin your good time, they are everywhere.I laugh every time Bob tells the story about them not letting him in, my car is satin black, and not as nice as Bobs, and I have never had a problem. Maybe they didnt like the looks of Bob ha ha ron

 

Good Lord, I can't lie, I love these TRAIN WRECK threads!

I don't know why, but this is funny, AND scary all at once....

Amen to this....

HAHAHHAHAHAAAAHAHAAAAAAAA

Awesome story G V Gordon

 

When i had my `81 Ford Fairmont with a healthy 302/5spd in it....some guy bitched at me for putting a Ford in a Chevy..........

 

Bob McCoy is the greatest and I'm not saying that just because he awarded my 32 Coupe that award at the Labor Day Cruise last year
The large painting that was the award means more to me than the GNRS trophies!

 

oh shit, nobody told me air bags weren't hamb friendly,i think most customs have bags now day don't they

 

After reading all this, my conclusion is that only rude, arrogant air bags aren't hamb-friendly. The ones that behave themselves are just fine.


Edit: But if all it takes to set one off is the slightest little prick, that's not good.

 

ok, cool

 

I got there early so I could save a couple of spaces for my buddies and this guy waiks up and says he likes the look of my car and can he take a couple of photos. This was about 7 AM, so we are BS"ing about cars, and the guy asks me if I have ever heard of the Real McCoy award and I said no i haven't. So he says " I'm Bob Mccoy and I give it and you just won it!" When I got to the "corral" there was a 39 chev coupe next to me and they spoke as if they were pros and where in the hell did we come from. They spoke as thogh they showed their car all over the U S and spoke to THE Blackie when he came around and bitched about some other promoter owing them "Show up" money. They did not build cars, they bought them and showed them. Way different people. The McCoy painting is on the wall and the one and only GNRS trophy is somewhere.

 

Ya know what the WHOLE FUCKING WORLD needs?
Swords. Every male with a pair of Balls should be REQUIRED BY LAW to own and carry a fuckin' SWORD.
Everyone would be a bit fuckin nicer if they knew that the possibility of impailment or dismemberment laid at the end of every sentence.

 

I think you're on to something there!

Can you imagine? Doctors, teachers, firemen, mechanics, greasers, Phil from the suburbs with the Dockers, all with swords at their sides? Whutta site.

 

Isn't there a town in Texas that passed an ordinance requiring every household to have a gun? I love Texas!

 

Easily the dumbest shit I've read on here all day.

 

Lux for president 2012.

 

I'd say that's more of an east coast/west coast attitude. I'm confident it's not the attitude on the gulf coast.

 

That was the L.A. Roadster Show years ago.
