Here is another car that McQueen was refused. This was inherited by a customer of mine who put the proceeds into a trust that supports various charities.

At the same time, most of the people that knew his name (and who didn't?)

Somehow people saying they wouldn't take cr@p off Steve McQueen is funny. I liked his response, haha.
