Default New to the forum

My name is Justin, i'm 24.
I own a 1981 Monte Carlo Landau.
The car was bought brand new by my great-grandfather back in '81 and i inherited the car about 8 years ago. Recently rebuilt the carb and installed a glass pack muffler. Hoping to begin driving it daily again in the next month or so.

I work at target, but will begin teaching once i get my degree and teacher certification this year.
In my spare time i like to play skyrim, work on the car, and build custom reclaimed wood furniture

Hello Justin and Welcome to the MCF!!

That is insane your Monte has remained in your family all this time. That is bad as hell! Appears you have not had to do so very much to your Monte. Guess ol'GrandPa loved the car and did his maintenance. Hope you have many more years of enjoyment with it.

A teacher? Maaannn, sounds like a hassle to me, hope it works out for you. We don't need no education, we don't need no thought control, no dark sarcasm in the classroom, hey teacher... leave those kids alone, all in all your just another brick in the wall.

The reclaimed wood furniture can be lucrative if you can find the right clientele. Need to find some high end designers to hook up with, the ones furnishing cabins and such for customers. Good luck, be creative with this.
