The Prodigal Son returns

The "son" being my newest acquisition, a 1978 MC Landau.

I'm Matt, once and future owner of a classic Monte Carlo. My first baby was an '81, rebuilt after a horrible head-on collision, and given to me as a gift. I lovingly referred to her as "The Phoenix", but alas, it was not meant to be, for 3 years after I got her, a tree crushed her frame during a freak October windstorm. This was 1994.

Finally, after all these years, I just purchased a '78 MC, painted hot electric blue. I've been on a mission since '94 to get another MC.

Mission finally accomplished.

So...what's up, y'all?
