Newbie member - Monte Carlo Man 72


Monte Carlo Man 72

Recommended Posts

Greetings! I'm a new member to the club. I've been a first generation Monte Carlo fan since I was 18 years old. I've had a few of these beautiful cars in my life and as the saying goes, " hind sight is 20/20".

Many years I wanted another one, they were always out of my price range.  3 years ago I finally saved up enough to buy a 72 402 big block, bucket console, triple black car which needed a lot of work. Finally finished restoring her this year. Looking forward to meeting and talking with other members with their beautiful "girls".  More pics coming soon, finally got on the website, had some difficulties logging in.

Welcome aboard! Great to see another Floridian join up. If you have been a fan on these cars since 18 then you have definitely found the right place for advice, tech data, how-to knowledge, vehicle history and others with the same passion as you for the Monte Carlo.

Welcome, beautiful car. Great to hear from a new member. Becoming a member is a wise choice. This is THE place to be for help and info on these cars. I’m sure that your restoration has left you with plenty of knowledge to share also. More pics please.

Welcome Mark !!! Your in the right place for the First Generation Monte Carlo. Lots of good things going on here. We run multiple Meets yearly, Eastern, Western and Mini Meets. They may not be near you but if you make the effort and attend one of them, you’ll be back. A great way to meet other members, see lots of First Gen Monte’s all in one place and participate in various Club activities. Other members can tell you about about their experiences. Enjoy !!!

Welcome to the club and forums, Mark!  Your triple black '72 is definitely a looker - nice job on the restoration! 

I see you are in Ft Myers so I am just up I-75 (or US 41) from you in Punta Gorda. I just got back yesterday for the winter season so I'll be out and about with my '70 starting today.  Maybe we can hook up at one of the many car shows held in the area throughout the winter.  It would be great to meet you and see your beautiful '72 in person.  PM me if you are interested.  Thanks.
