Made me think of a conversation I had yesterday. A guy walked up to me,
looking at my '73B and asked in typical Alabama draw "what is that thar, a
Spitfar?" Realizing he was not aware of the sin he committed, I politely
explained that it was an MGB. "Oh, an MGB Spitfar?" I then explained that
the Spitfire was made by Tr**mph, and that the MGB was made by MG. He then
asked "Well - what is it then?" I thought for a few swconds, and told him
it was a '73. "Yeah...that's what I meant. Real purty."
