How about the missuse of the word "restoration" in general. Restoration would indicate that something (a car in our case) was rebuilt to the way it was when new. Therefore, a 70 GTO claiming to be "restored" yet sits on 20" ghetto rims would be incorrectly described as "restored".

The other thing that cracks me up is when you see someone looking for NOS/correct valve stem caps for their "restored" car, yet they have an MSD box screwed to the inner fender/firewall with drywall screws. Or, they will have a big ole red top battery under the hood and they are searching for the correct knobs for their radio.
