77 days

Double 7's in our countdown to our Carlisle, PA Eastern Meet, that's right, just 77 days till some members start arriving at the club Host Hotel. rob

Heck of a list. If we only knew then what we know now. lol.

Pretty much the same disgusting thing. 🤮

Back when I was a kid and living in Florida, Flip-Flops were called Thongs.... That is before people were wearing Thongs of another kind on the beach. rob

Don't own sandals or those croc things , I do own a pair of flip flops for the beach tho.

Just a tip ya'll probably know but..... I ruined a set of rocker panel moldings using these spider looking clips on the right. Contacted Leo @Koniks Klassics to get a new set and he sent me these white plastic ones. Installed in minutes and they work great! Thanks Leo!!!

Yup auevco 8400 is the number. I did same thing aftermarket moldings are thinner.

Well this was a horrible task. I guess I have some work to do before I start installing this new panel. Ugh!

I have some of the crocs, I said I'd never wear them but my girl got me a pair as a joke but I tried them on and they really are comfortable No sandles but 3 pair of flip flops, one for home one for camper one for showers at campground. No thongs!

Speedos, not thongs....

And you would know a thing or two about thongs, wouldn’t you. 😝( please visit previous eastern meet post)

Only one pair Mark???

Most definitely. Babies, too. The parents of a long ago girlfriend of mine had an “oopsie” baby in their late 40’s. Girlfriend would have to watch the little guy quite often as her parents both worked. I can’t tell ya how many times she’d check to see if a diaper change was in order after “someone” crop dusted the room. It was like a Stooges skit… after the third time or so, it was “OK… now I’m SURE he needs a change”. Aahhhhh, good times…

Looks to be Flint built, so no build sheet.

78 days and a wake-up before our members start arriving at the host hotel for the Eastern Meet. We only have 2 rooms left in our block of rooms. Everyone have a Happy and Blessed Easter rob

My solution- for now! I finally found the right size leather cover- $15 on Amazon. It is Belinous size L1 and the most important thing- it has the stitching. This makes the install so much easier because you don't have to jam the needle through the holes in the leather a few hundred times. (I'd add a link but I can't even find it again - they must be out of L1). It looks great, doesn't seem cheap and feels nice!

"Tribute" SS car!

This one has moved around and had a few new owners lately. Up for sale again at Mecum in Indy. https://www.mecum.com/lots/1112911/1971-chevrolet-monte-carlo-coupe/?aa_id=559922-0&utm_campaign=SC24&utm_medium=email&_hsmi=299475989&_hsenc=p2ANqtz--v7bcWeiAHHD9hPkAnzVLTvSKGYDLT2X_PygW4ZKXjkONeyUAu7ToxWEXNOPvDbqDm9cYn9Rt3WFiqCo-UfsbcydiyOw&utm_content=299475989&utm_source=hs_email

Great lists and pictures, thanks for sharing

Well I found all the eggs, turns out I didn't hide them very well. They were in the refrigerator in the bowl I put them in 🤣 I'll call that a success! They are now deviled eggs as a snack before dinner. This is kind of a divided day it's Easter but also the anniversary of the day my wife passed away 18 years ago. Talked to my daughter she's doing alright, busy with her kids. Happy Easter to everyone.

I can relate. I’m not losing my hair, I’m FINDING it. On my pillow, in the sink…

I'll Try but I am old and surely won't remember them all: 1929 Model A Ford Tudor Sedan Purchased 1966 at age 15. I fully restored this car and I still own this Model A Ford 1929 Model A Ford Tudor Sedan Purchased 1966 as a parts car 1929 Model A Ford Tudor Sedan Purchased for parts. Took parts I wanted and replaced with parts from my first purchased one and then sold it to buy more parts. 1954 Studebaker Commander In 1966 (Wasn't really mine but a car given to my parents for my brother and I to drive. It got t-boned by a guy in a brand new Buick, while my brother was driving it to work. The Buick was totaled but my brother was able to continue on to work after the police left. 1959 VW Beetle This car was passed down to me and my younger sister to drive after our older sister eloped and moved out. I drove it up until the time I left for the US Air Force in November of 1968 1970 (First Year Of Monte) Desert Sand Chevrolet Monte Carlo. My first NEW Car. I sold it when the transmission started to slip around (the buyer knew about the tranny issues. I sold it to buy my next car. I needed a dependable vehicle to tow my Model A Ford from Jacksonville, FL to Pittsburgh. 1976 Olds Cutlass Supreme. I bought it used with a full warranty. We used it to tow the Model A Ford from Jacksonville to Pittsburgh... The transmission it the Cutlass went bad 10 miles from Pittsburgh but the warranty covered the repairs. 1980 Chevrolet (First Year ) Citation 6 Cyl High Output hatch back with rally wheels. (the most versatile car we ever owned. Way too much power and we loved that car. 1983 Cutlas Ciera Diesel. Bought it new when we traded in our Chevy Citation 1985 Chevrolet S-10 Trail Blazer Bought it new 1995 Chevrolet S-10 Trail Blazer 2005 Chevy Impala 2009 VW Jetta (In my name but it was Patsy's car) 2013 Chevrolet Captiva Crossover SUV 2017 GMC Terrain Denali Current Vehicle 2023 VW Jetta (in both of our names but it is Patsy's Car) From 1973 to when I retired I had many company cars in my name but they belonged to the company. There is no way I could remember all of them. Some of them are more memorable than others either for good reasons or bad reasons. 1974 AMC Ambassador was my first one and boy was it a POS. The day I picked it up I turned right out of the dealer parking lot, went about 1/4 mile and turned right again. My next turn was supposed to be a left turn but the car would not turn left, only straight or right turns. It did not last long because within 2 years it started to rust away to the point it would not pass state inspection. It was too late in the year to order another company car (They usually only ordered 4 door model cars but they had to see what was available on dealer lots and they came up with a Cutla1976 Cutlass S with a 350 4 brl and posi-rear end, it was a beast. My next one was a Pontiac 6000 followed by a 1982 Buick Skylark followed by a Ford Taurus (That car got hit in the middle of the night parked in front of our house. It was hit so hard it pushed it across the sidewalk and into our hedges. (when I got it back from being fixed we found I had an extra 4 inches in the trunk, front to back because the metal behind the back seat was pushed forward that much.. That was all of the cars I had and after that they switched to vans and I had too many of them to remember each of them. rob

I was looking at a sweet restored Montego GT big block when I found my Monte, Glad I got the Monte and found this place 🤘This guy used to run the local track back in the day...

I'm familiar with those security systems 😁

I got another message from a happy customer. These detent plates are doing very well. Dan

My ‘70 was also Van Nuys built and I have that option. It was an obscure RPO…

Here's an unrestored 72 with 11,000 miles. I pulled off the original hood insulation. The fenders were repainted at some point so there's a slight bot of gold overspray on the driver's side.

First one like that I have ever seen also. The only thing I could think is it was a late 71 dash and maybe they had started making them like that for the 72 or it came from an early 72 before they started installing the seat belt light and it was easily punched out. Either that or it was a replacement panel that was set up like so it could be used as a replacement for any year. rob

Cleaned the interior. Still a little too cold to wash the outside

It was an option. My 71 402 4 speed has factory installed air conditioning.

We will have to name it “Lil Red” since we already have a “Big Red”. Nice package in an SS car !!

Here's my all original '72 402 that I found by luck one day searching the web. It came with some trophies in the trunk from late 80s and early 90s. Think whoever had it must of parked soon after because it could use some TLC.

I count on the rain to wash mine. Hope it rains on the way up, so my wash is fresh for the show!
