Is anyone else "touchy" about their Mopar? (long rant...)

Dude, I love seeing guys show up in their "survivor" or "sleeper" cars (whatever u want to call them).
I feel like those cars have alot of personality. There is absolutely nothing to be ashamed about a work in progress. I know youre not ashamed, but this guy was clearly shaming your car.
Its okay for him to have an opinion, but he didnt have to say it like that. Or if your car was not his thing, just move on and dont say ****!
Your story also reminds me of the abundant amount of wannabe SOA Harley guys out there who bash anything thats not HD. I ride a Victory, and before that Yamaha and Honda. Ive taken crap from these guys for years and I used to react the way you did, but now I couldnt care less. Cuz I actually ride my bike usually over 10k miles a year in all weather (except ice). These dorks spend an hour dressing up like a pirate and spend 10 minutes riding down to the bar only when its exactly 74.5 degrees.
