  1. Cruising the Bay in Big Fork, Montana. Smaller show, around 400 cars. Friday night gathering and BBQ at local car museum with live bands etc. Saturday cruise is excellent, a complete loop around Flathead Lake, with stops at wineries etc. Sunday is the car show. Loved this show for all the reasons Matt mentioned. Its on the Sept long weekend. The hotel we stayed at was a lot like the Rosedale at the peach show. Great scenery, cruised through the Glacier National Park. Cruise to the top of the "going to the Sun" road is a must. This road is only open in the summer and not for the faint of heart. Liked it so much we are booked in again for this year. I am happy to go Penticton again, but also would like to try some different shows, my 2 cents, well its Canadian money so more like 1 cent worth. lol
  2. Very nice Montes, thanks for sharing
  3. Congrats Doug, I am not surprised, you have a beautiful Monte!!

    This is a very nice car and Darren has done a good job. I do have a question though. Darren how in the world do you get GM of Canada to tell you how many where made with different coloured tops or bench/bucket seats or written off. I have requested the same info but all I ever get are crickets, lolz
  12. Looks like a good turn out and congrats to all the winners
  13. As always, a great time and great people. Sad we couldn't make the winery cruise. A big thanks to April and Aaron.
  14. We have one of the cabins booked for the show at the Rosedale and unfortunately some of our gang will not be making the show.......so...if anyone is looking, it is a two bedroom full kitchen.
  15. Tim, Did your replace the brake lines going to the rear when you did the conversion. I have been thinking of doing a rear brake to disc but was told I need to upgrade to stainless steel lines. thanks
  16. Doug, I live in Canada, we have to label the crap out of everything because our Gov"t doesn't think that we are smart enough to look after ourselves. Ok got that off my chest, lol It is Metal cast code CMC200-Red Anodized Colour effect over chrome Heat resistant and durable. (durable it is!!!) Carl, if you look very closely at a NOS lens it is painted on three sides. I did a light wet sand with 400 then applied a few light coats to get the colour depth I thought was close. You don't want to loose to much of the chrome finish before you paint.
  17. I have found this to be very good for the Red on the lens. It is semi transparent , once painted, hard to tell between this and NOS

  19. I don't think those will work on the front. I am running 17 x 8 with 4.5" backspacing. No rubbing issues but wouldn't want to go with any wider of a rim. Backs I am running 17 x 9.5" and 5.5" backspacing
  20. Thanks for the help guys, really appreciate the ideas. I replaced the fuel filter and adjusted the float a little. Drove the car 150 miles over a two day period this weekend and no issues. In hind site I think it was from the car sitting and things got a little gummed up.
  21. I don't think it is because of the baby, might be the bench racing, just saying.
