One of the guys I work with has a BIL that is a "I've been everywhere, and done everything kind of guy" The guy I work with asked me to come over to his BIL house and give my honest opinion on a 1990 Blazer, that the BIL just did a complete rebuild. I said sure, went to the BIL house after work. Pull up and the Blazer is next to the house, BIL comes out, and starts telling me every bolt has been touched, the body has been off the frame...yadda...yadda. So I ask him to start it, he goes into how the motor is a 383 putting 600 HP to the rear wheels...more yadda...yadda. Finally starts it...(after having to go get the battery out of his 90s Furd Ranger. It's running like crap, he pops off it the big cam...I just look at him with that are you F-ing serious look. I than get under it, and the BIL flips $hit, frame is rusty, passenger floor pan has a 7 inch rusted out spot...and it goes like that for the rest of the truck. I looked at my co-worker and just laughed. Than the BIL has the Balls to ask me "Do you think I'll get 20k out of it" I almost had to take a knee from laughing. I said if you get 20k out of this thing...it will be a day two fools met. He got all pissed off and said he just seen one similar to that one on Barrett Jackson, and he got 48k...I just laughed got in my truck and left...
The idiots out there that think they have Gold when they have $hit never cease to amaze me. My favorite line is "I know what I have"
