More pics of my barn yard … Man cave is the barn to the left. Note the original hubcap for my 63 Bonny.. Even the tow chains have a place in the theme … entrance to my shop is under the deck .. The old orange water pump flows water.. Old goat cart was actually used by my kids back in the late 70's .

Aaron... I'm a big fan of automotive wall art. My wife won't let me bring it in the house, so I'm restricted to my shop, garage, barn yard and mancave. My garage is rather eclectic and covers many years of collecting and hoarding things I've used during our 62 years of marriage.. In my collection are some of the original license plates for my Monte from Louisiana, Guam,Japan, Arizona and California. I also have some beer collectables, bicycle, ,motorcycle, route 66, hunting and other themes. Everything in my collection has a real life story…. A grill would look good on top of your bumper. I have a couple of them Ed

This is the type of battery I used it test my new tail lights…. Ed C.

For a start, You might consider disconnecting the tail lights and use a small 9 volt battery to test the LED lights. If you have the lights most of us purchased it will test the lights and do no harm… My instructions warned "Don't use 12 volts to do this test " .. I tested my lights with the 9 volt battery before installation. I was able to determine if both brake/flasher and running lights worked…. Like Mark said, "They are polar sensitive". In fact, this may be the problem… Ed C. IMG_2278.MOV Ed

Ron…. Very nice pics… Would love to have been there.. Ed

I understand that the location changes. Thank you Aaron . I was hoping to hear about the event, the wine cruise, and awards. Many of us vicariously enjoy the events thru those who are lucky enough to attend… Thank you again for organizing such a wonderful event at the Medford Show.. BTW… I drove my Bonneville to a Logan Utah show about 15/20 years ago… Good call on Logan Utah. Ed

What happened to the meet in Medford? Hank and I enjoyed it….. Did I miss something ? Asking for a friend… Ed c.

I'll be changing mine out too…. I found some double springs on Amazon last night , but will go to a local store to make sure of the size… Dorman has a nice collection. Ed

Thanks for the update Tom... Ed

Thanks for your mentoring.

PEOPLE …. ? Thanks for the insight Tom …

David From the photo , the geometry may be wrong for the arm on the carb… Edlebrock may have a throttle arm kit that you can order. The Edlebrock arm, like I have on mine is the proper geometry for my 700r4… I think it's ordered transmission specific… Ed..

David On second look at that kick down cable (green).. It looks broken to me. This is a big part of the problem or part of it now and may account for the reason it wouldn't shift back ... Ed

David.. here is my set up with Edlebrock and a 700r4 tranny.. Looks like that spring is your problem.. Your kick down cable looks broken too. Ed.

That mystery cable is your tranny throttle position cable. (Kick down cable) Your spring looks like it's definitely hanging up .. I placed my spring on the front. I'll send another pic to show how it's hooked up …. I'm hoping someone else can help you on the TPS cable,,, but it looks out of adjustment or broken from your photo. Ed

I agree with Dennis… This spring on mine was reversed during some routine maintenance and was periodically hanging up on the idle adjustment screw to the left. Naturally it wasn't his fault,,, so I took it back and showed him. I simply flipped the spring over and problem solved …. Hope your problem is as simple as that. Ed c.

Yes, It was chilly,,, but there were a lot of warm hearts and happy people. Hope you enjoy the pics Rob. Ed.

Hank was so busy charming the women that I didn't want to make the show about him… I thought about setting up a "Hank" booth for him alone… LOL. Last night he sprawled out in our chair and left no room for me… Hank is a great traveller, He's always good for at least three to four hundred miles before asking for a potty break. Normally a front seat dog,,, but willing gives up his seat for mom… He likes KFC lunch when we're on the road and usually shares his Egg McMuffin with me breakfast… Ed

More of our magnificent Monte Carlos … If I missed your car in the photos it was purely by accident… I didn't see a car there that I wouldn't be proud to own,, and the members were extremely down to earth people and I enjoyed chatting with all of you…. Thank you … Ed C.

Random shots of the beautiful Montes at the Medford show… 18 Jun 22 ED c

Oh,,,,, I forgot to mention ,,, Hank was there and had a good time too…

I just arrived back home from the Medford show.. It was a fast trip to Oregon to visit my Daughter who just gotten out of surgery in Medford …. The show was very well done .. I was extremely happy to have met Aaron, April and members of the club. I'm really sorry that I couldn't stay long… I did managed to get a few pics, but had to leave and get back to my family… Hats off to Aaron and April for hosting a wonderful event…Kudos also to the many members for showing there beautiful cars. As far as I'm concerned your Montes made the show….. more to follow … Ed C…
