I have a couple of good teach the sales people not to be snobs stories..... Had a customer buy a Azure because he did not like the way the Mercedes explained why they would not take below sticker for 600SL, treated him like he could'nt afford it.

The Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum in Seattle does exhibitions with their restored hydro's and one of them is the griffon powered Budweiser once driven by Bill Muncey. One of those events will be in my local area and if I don't miss it I'll try and post pics..... :D
