My first Monte Carlo

I'm Tom, 54 years old, work at Newport News Shipbuilding as a Machinist.
This is my first Monte Carlo. It's a 1978 with 59,000 original miles. I wasn't looking for the car, a friend got into a financial tight spot and I bought it from him. Now that I have it,I love it. Looking forward to fixing it up.
