So today i was walking home from class and saw a '92 identical to mine, but with lots of rust and in need of a lot of love. As i was looking it over this really cute girl walks up and says "I hope you're not looking at my car, its in such bad shape" or something of the sort. She told me about all the problems she'd been having with it (alternator, A/C, fuel pump, fuel tank rusted through, cat rusted through, crank sensor, windshield leak, sunroof (the car needed some work to say the least)) I gave her a few maintenance tricks and the BC url. Maybe we'll have a new member

If she actually knew all those terms/problems, and she was cute, she'* a keeper.

And all you gave her was this address? not yours? Perfect chance to say "Well, I could help you out with fixing a lot of that stuf...."

Loser....

Give the man some credit. Its a start.

Nice Job JDB

EDIT DOH!! Still a nice try

Well she got to talking about her boyfriend and i left.

WTF.....And I was expecting pics...... :P

See, now there was opportunity there. You talk to him and and say "I notice you girlfriend'* car needs some work. If you are too busy, I'd be glad to help her out with it."

And then she'll find this thread..

EDIT: well doesn't sound like he'* done much for her car wise... the door may be open :?:

I thought the same thing one night at WalMart. I talked to this [young looking] lady for about 45 minutes about her 93 SLE. Come to find out she'* my cousin and a teacher at my high school. Holy cow, she looked my age.

nice respectful exit. Its easy for us to play armchair QB.

But ya coulda asked if she had a friend with a GP lol

Sounds like a match made in heaven for someone from your part of the country
