Good for a laugh today
So this morning I go to pull my Challenger out to go pick up a couple of things. I park in the back section of my yard where my garage is and have alley access to the yard and garage. There is a restaurant and a small Mexican bakery directly behind me. So there is a guy in the parking lot of the bakery drinking coffee and having a piece of Mexican sweet bread. He comes over after I pull my car out and ask if it was for sale, I said sure it is for the right price. He ask how much so I say 25K and not a penny less. So while the car is warming up he is looking it over and he tells me its got a miss to it. So I say don't think so. He says sure it does listen to the exhaust. So I say don't think so again but whatever. This car is a 360 with about 10.5 to 1 compression and a Comp Cam XE268 cam. it was kind of on the cool side this morning (low 60's here so not cold) and I don't have a choke on the Holley 780 carburetor so it does do a bit of thumping when its cold. Come to find out he says he buys and sells cars to overseas clients mainly and is always on the look out for older muscle cars. Whats funny was he didn't know what the car was until he read the script in the grille. So needless to say after that I cut the conversation short and got on my way. Picture of my Challenger.
