  1. That car's on my coffie mug and my new FGMCC hat!
  2. Hey Mark, I had the club cards in my pocket. I was trying to make Rob proud, I just never saw the guy.
  3. Try again now. You may have caught it while I was trying to edit the photos, I was trying to get them in order, but you know how that goes. They still didn’t come out the way I liked.
  4. I had a coworker from several years back reach out to me on Facebook. He had moved on to another job, and I had not heard from him in close to 10 years I guess. Anyway, he said he and a friend were putting together a New Years Day cruise in. With temperatures predicted to be close to 70 on New Years I decided to go. The turnout was great. I don’t know the exact numbers, but I would guess over 200 cars easily. I would have taken more pictures, but I banged up my hip pretty good on Christmas Day, so I couldn’t do much walking. His car is the yellow Yenko Chevelle that he just purchased in June of this year. There was a red First Gen there that I’ve never seen, but I could never find the owner.
  5. That’s incredible! What did you use to clean it?
  6. When I was 16 years old and bought my 71 Monte Carlo, the first thing I did was flip the air cleaner lid. That’s the way it stayed until I put a chrome open element filter on it. I learned this from my dad. The family car was a 72 Buick station wagon with a 455. The AC lid was always flipped on it as well. That one really sounded mean when you opened the secondaries.
  7. The 2x4, it’s the gift that keeps on giving!
  8. Nice looking group indeed! Thanks for posting.
  9. Congratulations! It’s a beautiful car with a great history! As others have said, looking forward to more pictures once you have her and start making her your own.
  10. Welcome! Beautiful Monte. 71 is one of my favorite years!
  11. Welcome Scott! Beautiful Monte and I’m loving the four speed. Hoping to see it at one of the meets!

    Cadillac XT4

    Glad everyone is okay. I don’t know any specifics on the XT4 either, but I’ll be following. We’re planning to replace my wife’s Audi Q3 with an XT4 next year. I’m looking forward to getting her back in a GM Product. I’m not impressed with the Audi.
  13. That does look good! I didn’t know about the cook book. Is it still available or on line somewhere?
  14. Nice! I think I’ve seen this car before. Does this belong to a member?
  15. I had the pleasure of meeting Bob this past summer when I was in Myrtle Beach. I bought a few small parts from him and we talked about cars for well over an hour. What a great guy!
  16. The radiator has been leaking around the filler neck so I took it to a radiator repair shop for a cleaning and repair. Finished putting it back in the car today. It was raining here all day, but it stopped and the sun came out just as I was finishing up. I could not resist taking her for a short drive.
  17. On the way to Carlisle this past year.
  18. Awesome! Love them all!
  19. Welcome! That's a beautiful 72!
  20. Welcome! That’s one good looking Monte!
  21. Very nice. Looking forward to seeing the next one!
  22. Same here! I would love to own that car, but I didn’t buy a Powerball ticket last night😜
