There are two stories within this one.
1. About a year ago I was at a Rockabilly Jamboree and after my band played I told my bass player to come out and listen to my headers. Another guy heard us and was on his way out. He said he had a Marauder too and wanted to listen. My bass player and I got to the car before him, I fired it up, popped the hood and reved it.
The guy that wanted to hear it came out and gave it a listen. "Wanna race?" I said. He said "I thought you had a Marauder, mine is from 1966." "Yeah well mine doesn't have a carb that's going to leak all over the place. You wanna race or what." "No you'll beat me, but mine looks cooler." "Yeah says you."
He went off with his girl into her little Honda or something like that and I started laughing. "Where's your car?" "It's in my garage right now." "Yeah sure it is and you're riding around in that? You guys are all talk. This car never sees a rest." He was gone after that.
2. I was driving yesterday on my way to the skyway when I see a black Ford Ranger with seven stickers on the reason window pull up beside me at a red light. He looked at me, gave me the thumbs up and nodded his head. It was the same guy I was insulting about a year ago. I guess he didn't believe me when I said it's my daily driver. Now that he know's it's blown with headers and all that stuff and he sees me drive it, he now likes newer Marauders.
Still where's his car? :confused:
These Rockabilly people... where to start. :shake:
BTW he was probably in his mid 30s.
NOTE TO ADMIN: Can you change the word for to from in the title? Thanks!
