haha that remainds me of my sig


And about the part shop workers they are idiots... I went to AutoZone to buy a spark plug wire puller. so I grab them and go to pay for them so the guy rings it up and looks at and he like what’s that for... so I look at him with this kind of face so I tell him it is to pull the spark plug wires...
and the box it was in says it in big red bold letters SPARK PULG WIRE PULLER, with a solid black background.
about the rx8 thing i didn't know they use connecting rods... opcorn: haah jk i think i'm going to go to Autozone and ask the guy if he can order me some for the rx8 i don't have haha

Ya alot of people in arkansas is like that. They always call it a camaro. I can tell the difference from 100 feet away by the tail lights or the headlights. I dont know how people can get confused over that.

Camaro is the original, so it's special that way. But Pontiac GTOs were the GM to have (next to vette, of course) before the Camaro. IMHO, the Pontiacs have always been a step up, the Chevy is a great car, but it's made for the masses.

Never really went for the Firebirds myself, cept during the mid 70's. A big block manual trans Trans Am would be awesome.
Oh, and 2 cars in a row going into the armory w/o insurance???

I went to auto zone tonight for a replacement flasher to get my firebirds blinkers working again. After not finding one on the shelf for less than $12.99 i went to the counter to see if maybe i missed the cheaper one by chance. The guy behind the counter asked if he could help me, and i handed him the bad flasher. He looked at it and said "whats this a PVC valve?" I stuck my hand out for him to give it back to me. He handed it back and i walked straight out the door without another word. This is a very common part, all older GM cars have one thats similar if not exact...

I wanted to say "thats the stupidest thing ive ever heard. Not only is it PCV valve not PVC, but how in the hell can you even mistake the two?"

those guys are a pathetic excuse......of something........I got nothing.. but yeah, stuuuupid!!!

I HATE people who talk on the cell phone while driving within a city. On the highway i don't mind TOO much, but in the city it pisses me off. I always pass them, glare at them, and then motion for them to hang up.

I have a '79fb. It is always fun going to the parts store when your car is not stock and you try to get something that does not fit their little lookup doohickey. Thank god of online part lookup for some stores. Even though they still get confused sometimes when i hand them the paper and say just get me 2 of these right here!!! And of course "Is that a camaro?"

[Earlsfat]

Dude you really pulled this one from the depths... did you use 50 pound test on that??? Lol.. last post was almost a year ago!

On second thought, with as dead as this place has been, this thread may have only been 3rd or 4th from the top anyway, lol.

[mikeemon]

I actually zoned out and didn't look too close at the date. I was searching for something else and came across this. ADD prevented me from finding what I was looking for. But I thought it was a good thread when I was reading through.

I agree, because i knew nothing about cars until my friend Iroczman taught me as much as he could. but it is irritating when people memorize #s and names (when they have no idea how it works) trying to sound cool but it makes them look desprate.

[KoreyM]

I thought they were the same??? WHAT!!
I have been calling mine a Chevy for the past year!

Does have a Chevy motor in it... so I guess it is a little bit...

To answer your question or rather statment.... people are just silly.
