Mexicans turn they're heads at my truck all day though

i get the "wtf kinda car is that", "DAMN.. that shit is low ", "Siiiiick ass ride" and of course "how do u get over speedbumps?" responses. i love pulling up to other 1st gen CLs and cruising by them slowly just so they can get a good look at my car

I always got tons of stares in my yellow '72 Skylark. I'll never forget one day I was sitting at a red light and a girl in a blue Escort takes a left in front of me, staring my way the whole time she's passing by (she was really cute so I was looking back at her). After she passes by I hear tires screetch and a loud CRASH! I turn and look behind me and her car is off on the side of the road after apparently T-boning another car turning out of a parking lot. The light turns green and I make a U-Turn to see if she's ok. I pull up next to her and ask her if she's alright. She very sarcastically says "I'm fine." very flustered by what just happened. I say "Glad everyone's ok" and drive away smirking a devilish grin.

One night my buddy and I were out riding and we were at a stop light. This civic full of hot girls pulls right beside us and stares at us and my car the entire time. I look over, grin, and pull away.
