One guy is actually a collector. '69 camaro, absolute perfect condition. All kinds of goodies added on to it. He's so anal he won't even drive it to a car show 7 miles from his house. Puts it on a carrier and pulls that with his "everyday" truck. He has another newer one with more chrome than should be legal to own.

I dont want this to come off the wrong way but I am glad that I am not the only one. I thought maybe it was just me.
I no longer park my vehicles in site anymore. I had someone to egg my brand new silverado the night I got it. I was
