Last night, on the way to work, some guy in a maroon late-model Chevy pickup wouldn't leave me alone while I was driving Ol' Blue (my '75 Chevy, hadn't driven it in a week, it needed the exercise).
Stoplight after stoplight he keeps revving on me, so finally, after the third one, I rev it up to 2,000, laugh when he keeps revving his up and let him have it when the light turns green.
I got so far ahead so fast it wasn't even funny, I let off at 60 (5mph over the limit) and tap the brakes and he comes screaming by me about 10 seconds later and I look at his back bumper... Louisiana plates!
That's one well-cooked cajun... He was pissed that my old junk heap on wheels blew his doors off like that. He was demanding to know what was in her at the next light.

What makes you think he was Cajun? Being from Louisiana has nothing to do with it. There are Cajuns all across the gulf region. The highest concentration just happens to be in south Louisiana.

His accent. Kinda easy to distinguish.

Ah!! In that case I guess I will be redneck in a pickup hunting, because all people with Southern accents that drive pickups are rednecks.
A$$clowns are everywhere, even in the Motherland. Most La. drivers tend to be laid back.
Nice kill regardless. He deserved it with that kind of attitude.

"See, we live here so nobody don't come and ___ with us."
Remember that movie? It's the truth! When I read it the first time it seemed that he was being somewhat derogatory towards my people, which does set me off a touch.
Bah, no big deal though. I know there are more a$$h0l3$ in Texas, just by looking at population density figures, statistically speaking of course...

I'm impartial, I just live in Texas. I belong to the Mustang Nation. What's done to the '75 chevy?
400 small-block
Edelbrock Performer 750cfm carburetor
Weiand Stealth Intake
Accel HEI distributor
Flowtech longtube headers
TH350 tranny with a shift kit, 1800rpm converter (would've gone higher, but she still does a bit of towing for me) beefier guts, and an adjustable modulator
4.56:1 12-bolt posi rear end (out of an old 4WD truck)
Toyota Camry dual electric fans (fit perfectly, no joke, used factory fan shroud brackets and everything)
dual 2" glasspack exhaust (soon to be replaced with dual 2.5" pipes and Hooker Aerochamber mufflers)
Brute Force solid-core U-joints (because I kept cracking the rear one when I used factory-style joints after putting the 400 in there)
APC Eurotec taillights (they were free, and I needed a set... never got around to replacing them with reproduction stockers... damn those things are ugly!)
Edelbrock Pro-Flo foam air cleaner
Brackets and pulleys from an '84 Z/28 (except the power steering pump bracket, that one is a custom CNC-machined piece I ordered online)
full Mr. Gasket chrome dress-up kit (what redneck would own a Chevy without one??? lol)
unknown performance cam (was in the engine when I bought it, don't know what brand or anything, when a friend offers you a 400 for $600 that's running, you don't tend to be too picky! lol)
Coming Soon:
Forged pistons (she's just about due for a rebuild anyway)
Isky Camshaft
Vortec Heads
Edelbrock Air Gap intake for Vortec heads.
Different gears (tired of turning 3500rpm at 60mph on the highway).
