We've all had our share of car show "experts". First local car show of the year, I pulled in, got out, and was getting my chairs from the trunk.

Now, my car is a '70 Challenger, G-code car, original 318 still under the hood but it's dressed up like an R/T. PLUS, it's got 340 emblems on the hood.

So, this guy walks up, looks at the VIN, and walks away shaking his head and mumbling something. Didn't say anything to me, no hello, nothing. I wanted to tell him that if he needed to look at the VIN to tell it wasn't an original R/T (no 340 R/T's in '70) then he's the idiot. But, I just let it slide...as always.

Bottom line, if you like your car, that's all that matters. Most folks are appreciative of the fact that these cars have avoided the crusher for 40+ years.
