colonel Posted September 12, 2023 Posted September 12, 2023 Received this last week. How many others do we have in this group? 10 Quote
DragCat Posted September 12, 2023 Posted September 12, 2023 Very cool Ive never gotten a magnet I liked from them 🤣 Never thought of sending them a pick, nicely done 🤘 1 Quote
colonel Posted September 13, 2023 Author Posted September 13, 2023 Thanks guys. Last October I decided to check how Rockauto got the cars they put on the magnets and it was as easy as sending in some appropriate pics so I did. Got an email from them mid August saying my Monte had been selected, which I was rather happy to hear, and a few weeks later they arrived. I would have thought there were some other members that had been selected by now. You do have to send in the pics as they don't send people out to car shows to find the cars and I'm pretty sure they want to see you have purchased at least some parts from them for your Monte. There are certainly many cars in this group that are worthy of being on one of their magnets. 2 Quote
Glen Posted September 13, 2023 Posted September 13, 2023 Very cool. It being #454 in their series is serendipitous confirmation that you now need to buy an SS. At least that’s how I would justify it 😂🤣 1 1 Quote

I'm going to have to go through my photo's now, and yes the blue oval too 🤣 1 Quote

Had an unmarked black Tahoe when I processed crime scenes. So much more roomy and comfortable. But I can’t argue with a take home company car. Ford Explorer is better than no car at all. 3 Quote
Blackhawk Posted March 23, 2024 Posted March 23, 2024 I had to rearrange my magnet collection after yesterday's RockAuto delivery. 4 Quote
colonel Posted April 23, 2024 Author Posted April 23, 2024 Hey, how about that. Good to see. Looks good on your fridge. Obviously mine was not the first Monte in the collector series. Anybody know if John is a club member? I like your online name. I used to be a member at a private golf club named Blackhawk. Very nice place to play if your reasonably good at it. What inspired you to use Blackhawk? Quote
Blackhawk Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 I think that I met him at a show in MN and that he isn't a member. On the username, that's a good question. I wanted an email address or username for something when I was ten and I think I chose it for the band, but it was 25 years ago so I don't quite remember. Once in a while I still get lucky enough to use the name without having to add numbers or letters when joining a site. 1 Quote
Montemedic Posted April 24, 2024 Posted April 24, 2024 At least it’s not a battery vehicle, not yet anyway. Quote
