Default Talk about barbarism!!

Standing out on the sidewalk in front of the house today, talking to a buddy on his new 18 Speed bicycle,which I was bugging him about(Canadian $ 800.00),the thing has both front & rear shocks!!Anyway, around the corner comes a red jeep, sporting those large dune buggy tires plus roll bar.The entire interior well was also painted red.I wave him down,wheh I spotted the old grill.Sure enough,he stops,pulls over,backs up to where we're standing.On the rear lid I see Willys.It's a 1952.He shows me the original motor.You could eat off of it>He confirms it's ex military.I asked him what the color was when he bought it.He says"that dark army green"I could have cried.The windscreen was the original,the only original tire,the spare, was original.When are people buying these old vets not going to appreciate them??Meanwhile,this jerk,prouder than hell,throws up the windscreen,and disappears.Whaat aa waste
