Default Bi-Monthly Themed Monte Photo contest 04 Aug. / 16 Aug. 14

Here we are for the second round of the forums photo competition. We are still feeling our way around and trying to get this off the ground, something fun for us all. Not every member will find the current theme appealing to them and may not participate, but when one does come around you may find that tickles your fancy, please participate. This will only be as good as one cares to make it.

Please take a moment to read the other thread and familarize yourself with the rules if you are new to this.

Certain members here favored my photo submission this last go around and according to the rules I'm tasked with coming up with the new theme for this weeks photo contest. I'm like kind of grabbing at straws and I think thats the beauty of this, one can opt to take the contest in what ever direction their creative whim permits them to.

So for this round of competitions theme, I'm calling it... MONEY PIT

Show why your car eats up all your spare money. And this is not just a picture of your car. You need to have things like new parts, past invoices, broken parts etc. etc. Somehow displayed in some creative manner with your car in the picture. LOL, lets see where we can go with this people.

Submit your entries to this thread... ONLY 15 entries permitted, first come first serve.

Good luck to all!!

My money pits are in my signature....

Trans Am because it's my new 'modding' vehicle...

The Monte is still a money pit because of my 140 mile commute daily... Gas every 3 days or so and preventative maintenance add up pretty quick
