Some people at Car shows

For example, I was at a show and saw a really nice 64 Impala convertible with the hood closed, and no engine emblems on the side. I asked the guy if it had a 409 in it. He said, "Chevy never made a 409."

I would take that to mean that, no, it didn't have a 409, and two, he bought the car cause it looked cool.
