MarkV Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 So, I was taking my '48 Cont. to the hand wash and there is a Jiffy Lube place next door, I pulled into the car wash, got some quarters and then an employee from the Jiffy Lube walked up to the car and said "My friends and I in the Jiffy Lube were wondering if that was a Volvo." so, I replied "Volvo never even came close to making anything this expensive, it is a 1948 Lincoln Continental" and the guy said "oh, well, we were sure it was a volvo" "no, it is a Lincoln" then I went on and told the guy about the car but, I could not believe it....A VOLVO! That's a new one! Have any of you had something like this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBoz Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Here's a '48 Volvo, just for comparison:http://www.motoringpicturelibrary.com/preview_image.asp?lcID=22&fleID=4059But hey, at least they were *trying* to identify it. Must people have been so bored to death with jellybean cars that they don't even care anymore. Looks like a good learning opportunity IMHO.

HarleySoftailer Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I once had someone come up to me and ask if the woman with me was my girlfriend. I told him no - a girlfriend never came close to being this expense - this is my wife.Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
