I just joined the club last week. I had a few minutes So I wanted to say hello and thank you for adding me to the group. Looking forward to talking with everyone about their Monte Carlo as well. I had my 1971 Monte for 26 years. Picked him up in indiana in October at a swap meet. Had no desire to buy a car that day. I already had a green 70' Monte at the time I was fixing up. But the green 70' needed a lot of work. My dad and I were there to pick up fender skirts for his 64' Oldsmobile dynamic 88. I seen a 71' in the for sale area. I told dad let's go look at it. Well I had to buy him. The car was a rust free car. The paint was dull, interior was shot. But it had a nasty small block with nitrous. Still needed a lot of work but lot better shape than the green 70'. Now my 71' has a Big Block in it. That is nasty for what it is.  My 71' nickname since I bought him as been The Beast.IMG_20190506_200420.thumb.jpg.3c059bfad51ac307045754628eec5c01.jpg

Welcome aboard Bob.  I  hope to see you at one of our Eastern Meets or Mini-Meets.  The Mini-Meet in Carlisle, Pa in June would be a great event to attend to meet a large group of our members.

Keep the pictures, you can never look at too many BLUE Monte's on this site.

Welcome to the madness Bob! Nice 71! What happened to the 70? Lol

I was thinking about going to the Eastern meet. Don't think I can get off work for that one. Hoping for a closer one soon...

I see ( I think) you’re from Monroe Ohio ( you spelled it different or misspelled or different city altogether). I’m in Amelia (east of Cincinnati)

Welcome Bob! I’ll never forget my first drive in my blue 71 after putting a big block in it and that in the late 80’s!

It's a rush. My small block was a great strong motor. But man there is nothing than pushing the gas pedal down on a big block
