Default Re: What is your collector car Pet Peeve?

I guess mine is those who touch everything. My worst was the lady who took down the "do not touch" sings so she could get better photos of her kids in the car. At a museum event I asked a guy who approved him putting his kids in the car. He said "it is just an old car and its free." I pointed out his errors and he grabbed his kids and wife and stomped off making loud noises. To everyone's delight he found that he had locked his keys in his car and this was Sunday afternoon. It was a long wait in the weeds for the lock smith to show up. Once a lady put her purse with the 4 steel nubs on the bottom on my freshly painted fender. I asked for the amount of $$ it had cost me and she huffed off saying she would never return. Two minutes later a "Gramma" was sitting on my running board to catch her breath. She apologized for sitting on my car. I said" any time" and sat beside her and talk about the good old days. What a difference. 99% percent of our guests are super
