wallaby Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 I thought about going to Lincoln College and I liked the idea of traveling worldwide, so I looked into their Continental classes. Beyond the usual mechanic training, in order to get a degree in Lincoln repair they require you take a bunch of useless Roman numeral courses. Quote
daprincipal Posted October 16, 2010 Author Posted October 16, 2010 Boy you guys are a great and warm and a lil bit crazy bunch..thanks so much for making me feel welcome I have always been in love with the montes..just a little bit intimidated by them and a not worthy feeling due to my having grown up in the F/I era..... a little background on my car.. 350 2bbl..black on black vinyl top 12 bolt rearend..and the almighty column shift LOL..I picked it up for a song from a kid on the westside of chicago (The HOOD has some of the best deals ..the first thing he did was put some twenty inch rims on it. ..I ran into some money and just bought a fully forged 383 hydraulic roller motor..a built TH 350 trans..and some other odds and ends..now I just need some heads to match up with the engine and a slightly better carb..I believe the holley thats on there now is only at 600CFM..So I have been doing SOME homework LOL...I think I am really going to enjoy this...

CrazyDavey Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 yeah, but the couch is the only piece I actually HIT!!! let it go Tim...let it go..... Quote
CrazyDavey Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 just don't want you to beat yourself up for killing a sofa Tim.... Quote
MonteFox89 Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 it's ok, one day you'll step down from couches and hit pillows. I hear that helps lol Steve, Again, welcome to the First Gen Monte Carlo Club! Don't ever feel intimidated by these guys, girls, or the Monte it's self. These guys, girls and the monte are all a lot like cats on catnip. I mean this in the best of ways so if you don't like cats then you're like a walrus on.... sand? Either way. I'm sure you can find anything ya need here! it's like the Walmart of Monte Carlos! Quote
kc8oye Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 The owner of the couch is very lucky I didn't find him that afternoon. I would have shown him a whole new way to sit on a sofa. Quote

kc8oye Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 you have no idea how angry I was jake... that couch did some damage to my poor monte! front bumper, radiator grill and passenger side fender all took a beating because of it. Quote
7tonemonte Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Just think how he felt Tim, he got to his place with his new sofa, and it was gone And you ruined it!! It was on the road when you hit it right? Not his living room? Quote
Montecruiser Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 All this time we thought Tim hit some stray couch that fell from a truck when in reality it was a traffic accident. The couch failed to yeild the right of way. Tim could take the couch to court. Quote
kc8oye Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 That couch may have failed to yield... but my monte demanded, and TOOK right of way.. LOL Quote
