Well, sorta lol!
Chris, a mutual friend local to me who runs the Automobiles Anonymous Facebook group, has convinced @Jeffs02rwdSS that he needs to have his Monte part of the 2025 Indoor Autorama/Piston Powered show in Cleveland, Ohio. This event takes place every year around March/April time frame.
Thanks to this friend, I have had my blue Monte in this event two different years. Anyone who wants to know more about the event can go to this site: https://www.pistonpowershow.com/
Because of concerns with weather getting from Minnesota to Ohio in March, Jeff came out on 10/12 and I am temporarily holding the car in my new garage until the time to get it to the show.
Jeff came out last Saturday (as he was in Columbus for work) and we took his Monte joy riding. I am sure any of the people who successfully completed a 6th gen RWD Monte have all done it differently. What Jeff has done, it works great and it a lot of fun (both to drive AND be a passenger). Probably as close as you can get to a street legal race car.
Very cool! And it will be an awesome part of the Automobiles Anonymous display!
The pic of it in front of a barn with a big C is at our friend's place (not my garage) that is organizing to get Jeff's Monte and a few others into the Piston Power show this year.
It was definitely fun hanging out with all of you last weekend. I'm glad you also enjoyed riding around town. I wasn't sure how far you'd take my car , but obviously you were ready set go. I know you enjoyed getting up in the 120 mph range and the little burnout. It was the first time I remember riding passenger in the car 😂.

Thats bad *** guys, a lil Monte bro time. What a very special Monte Jeff took the time / effort to build, congrats bud! Hope you do well at the event, going to snap a few necks for sure, wait, what it's not fwd...
Jason, the standup mod, you have been such a Maniac with the Monte scene, always have an iron in the fire. New garage is to die for, big effort for a Manly man cave, go chill, get greasy, get your stable of GM vehicles inside to work on, store, jealous. Bumpin and you, head to head over the top purpose driven custom garage builds, way to go guys!
😂 We didn't quite make it to the track. Jason decided the local "Mexico" highway was safe enough to drop the hammer. I was just there for the ride.
I had mentioned that we should race , but he declined.

The garage I am still working on has been a 10 year dream (ever since I bought the land my home is now on). Good things take time (less time if I could have won the lottery).
I got a new RWD Monte!!!
