Default This is just awesome

I have spent most of the day today researching and reading and getting ideas for my Intimidator, mostly from this site. Couple things tho.... Alot of the aftermarket sites I see are no longer used, not like I wanna spend bookoo (is that a real word? lol) bucks on power adders but damn. Where can I go to find recently used sites? They all seem old and out-dated.

Next, I MUST FIND GP ROOF RAILS! With it being a NASCARish MC it makes total sense to find these. Coolest mod IMO by far.

The heated seat fix? Never would have thought of that... now just need time to explore. Neat.

This forum just makes me love my Monte more. Thanks everyone.

CARiD.com - Auto Parts & Accessories | Car, Truck, SUV, Jeep

ZZPerformance | 3800 Performance Parts | Largest Aftermarket Supplier!

3800 Performance - high performance aftermarket car parts for your Grand Prix, Monte Carlo, Impala, Regal, Bonneville, and V6 F-body!!

those sites are very good. I prefer zzp myself, good parts, good service and good prices.

GP roof rails are getting harder to find, they come up used now and then, you can check Club Grand Prix! Your online Grand Prix & G8 resource as they are up for sale periodically on their classifieds. There is a member selling a set here on the forum in our classifieds section but I believe it is pickup only in Florida.

Beau-coup is a real word, French in origin, often misspelled in english. I had a 56ton tank retriever in the army that we named Beau-coup. Here is the dictionary description.


beau·coup, French
(bō′ko͞o′, bo͞o′-, bō-ko͞o′) also boo·coo or boo·koo (bo͞o′-) Chiefly Southern US
adj.
Many; much: beaucoup money.

n. pl. beau·coups also beau·coos or boo·koos
An abundance; a lot.

beau•coup
(boʊˈku)
adj. Slang.
1. very much; very many: He had beaucoup money.

2. large; significant: a beaucoup building project.


Very happy to see your taking such a great interest in your Monte, make up a mod list and do them in an order where the latest will take advantage of the previous. You can definitely spend Boo-Koo money on these...

Posted below so our MCF Member's know what they may pull up 2 @ a light


Ford Escape

2015 Ford Escape shown



The Escape’s sportier, upmarket look improves its curb appeal, and the interior continues that stylish motif. To defend itself against a slew of competitors, the Escape offers premium features and a choice of three different four-cylinder engines, two of which are turbocharged. A six-speed automatic is standard on all models, while a stout chassis and a firm ride provide a surprisingly engaging driving experience.
