Default Backround

It is suggested that new members post something about themselves.

My name is John and I am 68. I am reviving my late son's 2001 Monte Carlo SS. He died 3 1/2 years ago of a drug overdose and the car hasn't been touched since then till this past week. Amazingly after charging the battery it started right up and even drove on the old gas that was in the tank.

There are some things that need to be done to the car to get it in first class condition so I have joined the forum so I can ask questions of knowledgeable people.

I hope that your son's Monte can bring or keep the good memories of your son. It's amazing that it started right `up and ran on old gas.
I hope that our member's can assist in the problems that you encounter with your Monte.

I also hope that your post reminds or brings attention to this major problem in our country/world. Wish you good luck and acceptance of events that you have no control over.

Look forward to your future posts. Explore the MCF and enjoy your project of getting the Monte in top running condition.
