Default Montes for your viewing pleasure

We attended the Lane Automotive car show today, and took a few hundred pics' Here are some of Montes that were there. There was only one other late model Monte there, but the GP club was there in force. If you check out my other post, you'll see that the top dyno pull was by a '71 Monte pulling 1,128 on a portable! Here a few for starters:






I'll post more below.

all looks good but that first one. IMO the suicide doors and huge spinners ruined that monte

I didn't like the paint at all! It is a smeared look, and just didn't make it for me.

Thanks `Wayne for sharing your pic's/experience/time with the MCF.
I love car shows, but also appreciate when member's take pictures and post
them for other member's to enjoy.
What car did you take to the show ? To us, you have three winner's : )
and we would be happy driving all of them : )
Look forward to your future posts, and hopefully more pic's.
Wish you and the reader of this a Happy `Day.

I knew I missed something. Here's what we took. There were LOTS of nice F__ds there. And EVERYTHING else! Several hemis around. I was disappointed there were no 5th gen's there. The MIGPC had about 12 blown GP's there, and the WMCC had about 10 Camaros tthere. Seen a V8 motorcycle cruising around the circle drive in front of the building, which was the showcase for '68 muscle cars. Didn't get enough pics. Only took 248!

I love the color of that first monte, but the spinners gotta go. It also would have been nice if the bodycolor actually matched or accentuated the color of the interior trim color.

Great pics with lots of nice cars.

Wayne, have you thought about getting a trunk lid liner like the one in my photo gallery?
I think it would be a really nice final touch for your car at shows.

Got mine from PFYC.
