Mike Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Whos going!?!? Always a good show. I bought my Monte there...in 2009. Best buy of the recession at twelve grand, big block, AC, buckets, power windows, tilt, Flowmaster exhaust kit, dumps, 12 bolt, 373 gears, great shape. Stole it. Since then I retired the 402 in the first pic and put in a 454 that i bought there from Gordons when he used to come with the trailer full. 555hp, runs awesome, flies like the wind. I couldnt believe the torque difference between the two BBCs. I usually park out by Turn 4 near the tunnel, or just south of those hit and miss engine guys. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbolt Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Im at the Turkey Rod Run every year, and sometimes Jared is there as well but without his car. We have club parking between the tunnel entrance and the garage area. Its always a great time and we normally have a few bbq grills going. I have considered hosting a club mini meet there but I have been told I have to have more than just me attend. I forgot, sometimes Antone comes as well but has yet to bring his car. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring up some Detroit steel! ITs a great show and monster swap meet. For all the knuckleheads that buy at Mecum...thats just flat stupid. There are a thousand cars here for sale and you can drive them. I had three buddies buy at Mecum, all got screwed with purposely hidden problems. ONe guy had to put a full frame under his 71 Monte, it would track down the road funny. But you cant tell that when its up on the auction block. When i bought mine we roared it around the airport. I was sold instantly. I even snuck it up on the turn on the far west side one year. We all know its steep, but man i had to stay in the throttle. It was a bit unnerving. Before they could get me i zoomed out the back gate LOL. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
