about blew a gasket

i was sitting @ work today, i'm a tow truck dispatcher at a citgo gas station. some guy walked in today and asked who owned the big white car parked inbtween the 2 rows of pumps. and i told him i did, he then said to me "i'll give you 500 bucks for it, i want it for demolition derby"
now i know she isnt the best looking but thats my baby, but a long story short i almost lost it on the guy who persistantly tried to convince me to sell him the car and was sent home by my boss but i still have my baby so it was all worth it

btw my 67 Polara is primered white with some rust bubbles on the lower rear quarter pannels and a gray and black primed hood.

i do what i can for a 17 year old restoring a car

This must be the week of retarded tow truck drivers... Yesterday I was in the garage working on a '55 Chev 2 dr wagon, a flat bed stops out front and the driver gets out. (Parked out front is an '09 Challenger, the 71 GTX, and my 99 Cherokee, it tends to make people want to talk when they see me)

Guy walks up, and asks if I'm the one who needs a jump. Now come on... there's a battery charger sitting in front of him, cables hanging on the wall, and 3 nice looking cars out front. I told him no, and he says I must be, it's for a blue Grand Cherokee. I told him it was just a Cherokee, and asked if he had an address or a name. He said nope, just that it was behind Lowes (Could be anywhere in about a 20 sq block area), and Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, didn't make a difference, same vehicle.

Again I told him it wasn't me, and wished him good luck. That's when he got mad and started telling me SOMEONE was going to pay for his trip, he wasn't driving here for nothing, and I had a blue Jeep, so it looks like it was me. I didn't say another word, just looked at him. He finally got nervous enough to just get in his truck and leave. Gawd I hate idiots.
