I'm working in the garage on a friend's car, a 67 Beaumont. Completely stock, 283, no power brakes, just power steering. I was working under the hood a couple of hours ago. My wife came into the garage to talk to me for a minute.
Keep in mind she's used to see me working on one of my cars and she knows nothing about cars. Both of my cars are big blocks and one car has air conditioning, so she's used to seeing that under hood view.
She watched me working briefly and then says "Why does it look there's so much room? I thought it usually looks a lot fuller under the hood!"
I didn't bother explaining about big blocks, small blocks etc. I'm still chuckling about it a few hours later.
