My fiance wanted a high performance set of spark plugs and fancy air filters for her vintage Corvette.
She thought about getting aftermarket performance automobile parts, simply thinking they may be less high-priced, although she absolutely wanted the original. That’s when the two of us went to the local Chevy dealer, hoping they would have the air filter and fancy spark plugs she was looking for. They said they didn’t have that make, however they had the entire aftermarket performance car. She was still at the point where she hoped to get the original part from them. There was an older gentleman at the service counter, and she wanted to know what our silly fiance was working on. She told him she had a twenty year anniversary edition of the original Corvette. The wise woman whistled through her teeth and said it had to be a sweet ride. The two of us had already driven the Vette to the dealership and the woman walked out to look at the car. She calmly said that they had aftermarket performance automobile parts, however a sweet ride like both of us had probably should have the originals to keep the automobile ‘cherry’. She told us about an automobile shop she knew of that sold nothing but vintage Corvettes. When both of us pulled in. several women walked out to look at the family car. Their first question was, ‘how much did both of us want for it?’. My fiance said she honestly didn’t want to sell it, although she wanted an air filter and spark plugs. They definitely were not less high-priced.
