Until the early 70s we actually had an independent auto parts store (along with a Chevrolet and a Ford dealer) in our town of 3500 souls. The guy at the parts counter liked to give customers a hard time.
Customer, "I need an oil filter for a '65 Olds."
Joe, "Two door?"
"No four door."
"Color?"
"Blue."
"Whitewalls?"
"No - WTF? Just get me the oil filter!"
Joe is walking back through the shelves.
"I always wanted a '65 Olds 2 door, red, whitewalls."
"Will you just get the damned oil filter!!"
There was a poem posted on the counter. I can't remember the whole thing but the last lines are
I'd grin from ear to ear
If the customer would just give me
The model make and year!
