Wow. Like my new good friend Tom Clary told me at Vette Fest. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] "This board is a great tool where there is NOTHING that can get past board members. If a car is mentioned someone somewhere knows about it."

Yes I know where your car is and it is a very funny story. Just this weekend at Vette Fest a guy came up to me while I was sitting talking with Mr70 and my father and asked about LS5 Chevelle info. He said that he was looking at one to buy and I suggested that he take a look at mine which I am going to sell since I am hopefully going to be a supercar owner by next summer. As we were talking about my car he pulled out that book that you mentioned and showed us the Cranberry Red 70 Monte Carlo SS 454 that he owns that was the very car from that book. He went on to tell me how nice the car is but how crappy it runs and drives. Figures because trailer queens sometimes do. Here is the kicker. I forgot his name!

That is a great story Frank and you are right, seems like if there is a car to find somebody on this board knows about it. What's amazing is that the car I traded the Monte Carlo for was at Vette Fest in 1996 while the Monte was in Southern California (where I lived) and how over time the 2 cars switched homes. I heard that the new owner blew the motor. No wonder it doesn't drive so good!
