We have a regular routine whenever we meet:

Either Dad or I would say "hey Arnie..."

Arnie will acknowledge us, with that "I know I know you from somewhere" look, and stick out his hand...

Dad would say "I'm the guy that had that Nocturne blue '63 Catalina HO car, with the aluminum front end and the wide whitewalls, and blah blah..."

And then, now, I say "...and I'm the guy that brought your tarp back".

And Arnie, with a gleam of recognition in his eye, will say "oh, yeah! Yeah!" and then off we go to whatever we were going to visit about....
