Default Chevrolet-Fan from Germany

Hello,
I am Marc-Johan, just call me Sean. I was born in Germany and I still live here. I explored the world of cars when i was four, and when I was 15 my father had a Chevy Camaro ('69), what a beautiful car! Well, when I was 18 I started studying in Hamburg and I knew that I don't need a car because there were bus and train. On one day I saw this Monte Carlo '71. I fell in love, so bad, dude. I don't need a car for drving in the city, so I bought that neat Chevy for the country road. Now I live at the lake Constance, the streets there are beautiful, and that countryside! Wow! We even have our own quarter-mile (an old airport). Well, once in a while I take it out of the garage and drive small and big tours, not everyday but often enough (don't forget that fuel costs 7.5$ a gallon). I hope this Monte is staying in the family 'coz I had to work much to afford this Chevy, which was always my dream.

Okay... Here are some pics of my baby:

Everything is original, I had to paint it once...

...but it's the original colour.

PS: Please don't be to harsh, I know my English sucks, I didn't speak English for a damn long time. And please tell me where I wrote something wrong, please.

Thank you! It's really a neat car. Do you have a picture of your fiance's Monte? What's triple black? Black rims, black interior and black paintjob? That surely looks awesome. There was a oldtimer-rallye last weekend. The only american cars were: Shelbys, Fords and (of course) Chevrolet. This one was nice:

Dude, nothing personal but those internet translators suck big time!

'Sean, your english is big and also is your car. We are looking to the front to your future pillar. Wish him fun and luck'

What receiption from you guys! I feel like home already. MCF rocks! The German people don't have such nice forums about american... about chevrolet? NO WAY! About the Chevy Monte? If you ask: “Do you know the Chevrolet Monte Carlo?“ “Yes, I've been in Monaco/Monte Carlo it is really nice there.“ D'oh! Oh well, finally I found a nice place with other Monte-Fans.

A big compliment to all of you!! You're awesome!
