[DML] Re: Miramar Car Show

[scottmueller@xxxx (Scott Mueller)]

Congratulations on surviving the car show.

I always enjoy participating.

Some people do have a lot of nerve and think that they are in a car dealer
show room. When I display my car, I prop the engine cover open and leave
the doors open. Of course, I remove anything from the car that sticky
fingers might brush against. I just remove the temptation. It is only
natural for people to touch the body, they do not believe that it is metal.
I like it when it is really bright and hot out, people leave with burned
fingers.

I bring an umbrella and chairs and just talk with the people that come by.

Perhaps next time, you will have other DeLoreans to compete against, I think
it is more fun with other D's there.

> For what it's worth, I survived my very first car show and won 3rd place
in my division. Which division I don't know unless it was anything that
wasn't a Camaro or Mustang. I was up against a Pantera though. It was a lot
of fun and I was the only DeLorean there. Yes, everyone ignored the DO NOT
TOUCH signs and one guy had the nerve to open up my engine compartment on
his own. An ex D owner he claimed. Today I was nice, but next time...! The
car had steady admirers all day and I arrived home with a hundred
fingerprints and a nice sunburn. The joys of ownership! Fil Vigil
