But...The most enlightened gear heads I know (giggle at times) have the most respect for the car...because they know clasics. I regularly get compliments on the Maverick even though it needs paint and has a six. Not a week goes by where someone doesn't compliment it or share their fond memories of the car. Saturday a guy was driving like an a**hole only to get next to me at a light and say "cool car"...it wasn't sarcastic either. The Maverick is a loved car. The e-mailer has what psychologists call an inferiority complex. He saw your Maverick and knows it puts his top-heavy Vaga with the big block to shame! So what, he can run the heap down a drag strip like hell but, can he go faster than 25 around a turn without his engine hitting the hood....perhaps his $50,000 Lexus doesn't have enough gold!
