  1. That's true but it is much harder for a blind squirrel to find one.. 😕 rob
  2. Good Morning, Well, after today we have 82 days and a wake-up until our members start arriving for the Eastern Meet. I know that sounds like a long time but on Saturday we will hit 79 days and a wake-up and that doesn't sound as bad. rob
  3. Mine came in the mail last week. Exciting, isn't it. rob
  4. With the number of members we have registered already someone asked me if I had any idea what the attendance for the Saturday evening Award Dinner would be. I counted up all of our members and guests and if we were to hold that Awards Dinner today and every member and their guest attended there would be 135 people at that dinner. We will easily fit our group Award Dinner in the vendor food court area. rob
  5. I suspect Bob is doing that so from start to current his restoration is pretty much all in one long post over the years. From knowing Bob all these years getting this done has been a challenge but I am glad to see there is a light at the end of the tunnel for him. Having followed Bob's restoration over all of these years, if I am not mistaken I think Bob has done almost all of the work himself. When I was young, single and living at home I did the restoration on my Model A.... back then I didn't have any home, family or any other responsibilities, I know I would not have been able to do what Bob or many others here have done in the restoration of their cars. I have seen way too many people take on a project like this and give up on it, I know I could not have accomplished what Bob has done on this car. rob
  6. Not sure about 71 and 72 but the 70 ca.e from the factory with a wire that was part of the negative battery cable clamp that attached to a hole in the passenger fender. One time I had an issue of flickering and dimming lights. I found that wire to be broken and after I repaired that wire my flicker and dimming disappeared. rob
  7. Good Morning. Well, another day has ticked off the calendar and today marks 84 days and a wake-up before some of our members start arriving in Carlisle for our 2024 Eastern Meet. We will soon be in the 70's in our count-down. rob
  8. Just a few stats to share with you: Numbers by years: 70's =27 71's = 16 72's=18 Arrival Days = Tuesday = 5 Members Wednesday = 19 Members Thursday = 55 Members Friday= 7 & Saturday 1 Classes: Stock=15 Street=17 Modified=19 Super Modified=9 States represented 19 Province's=2 rob
  9. I know you have been trying to get it to a meet for a good while. Glad you are trying to get it there this year. It is going to be huge this year. rob
  10. Even though they were not a 71 item but I have heard of some people who bought their early 71 new and they were on their car from the factory. I can't verify it but I guess it is possible. rob
  11. I didn't even know Brad Pitt made motor oil............. Oh, never mind, you said Brad Penn rob
  12. It makes no difference if you are a dues paying member or not, your comments are taken the same. As far as deleting the entire thread, I am not sure why. Nobody is saying to do anything that is not legal. As a matter of fact the post about the guy will make you a VIN tag indicated that person will not even touch it without seeing a clear title for the car. Unless I am missing something I did not see anything that was of concern. rob
  13. The VIN tag does not indicate Color, Vinyl Top, Interior or drive train so it can't be compared to determine matching body and vin tags.. The real key is the VIN indicating Flint and the body tag showing Baltimore. rob
  14. The only fabric type stuff they used was the carpet strip on the bottom rob
  15. I have a NOS AC Delco filter that I bought and will use that. 10W-30 With a fresh oil change you should drive it up to our Eastern Meet in Carlisle PA this June, 76 members already registered with me to attend rob
  16. Joe had pointed out a couple members who were not on the list. Those two have been added but when I counted it only added up to 75 so I found the one that was missing and added that member too. So it now adds up to 76 members. rob
  17. Well, we now know who is Member Number 75 but not just number 75..... We now have 76 members registered with me to attend. I have just added Tom Carter #75 and his sister Eileen Powers as #76, each bringing their own Monte.

  19. Good Morning. Well, another day has ticked off the calendar and today marks 88 days and a wake-up before some of our members start arriving in Carlisle for our 2024 Eastern Meet. rob
  20. If you find you would like to celebrate your 3 year anniversary at the Eastern Meet coming up in June please let me know. It isn't too late to get you signed up to be with the best group of Monte Carlo owners. We still have a few rooms left at the club host hotel. rob
  21. Good , Afternoon today marks 89 days and a wake-up before some of our members start arriving for our Eastern Meet. Wow, it seems like just yesterday were in the 90's. No need to get nervous yet. In the background we are starting to address the things that need to be addressed to make this a more successful Eastern Meet. We need to get some more people and cars registered. While we currently have more members registered than ever before we don't have more first gen Monte's registered yet. Some members either aren't bringing a car or the car they are bringing is not a first gen Monte... All are welcome but let's get some more first gen Monte's registered. Carlisle Events is supposed to be sending me a listing of how many registrations in the club name they have and how many of those are first gen Monte's. As of right now we only have I think rooms available in the club host hotel but I have contracted with another hotel for some more rooms but that hotel is the nearest one I could find with enough rooms to give me 10 or more rooms, none of the hotels near the host hotel had enough to write a contract. If we do run out of rooms at the club host hotel I will start a waiting list for people who want to be on a waiting list for a room at the host hotel. With car show and cruise season upon us start stalking people to join the club and at the meet. rob
  22. No gray hair on any of them so safe to say I'm not pictured rob
  23. Congratulations on your 3 year Anniversary. In a couple short years you will earn a grill badge. rob
