Default Didn't plan to but sold my Monte


I was over at the Dodge Dealer Friday looking at a 13 Charger Blacktop Edition and asked them what they would give my for my Vette. They gave my 15k and I told them I had the Monte Carlo and they gave me 12k. I made money on the Vette but lost some on the Monte.

I will still hang around because my other old Monte belongs to my Son. He is coming in January and I got him a spoiler for it. It is a 2001 LS with 37k on it. Plus the people are cool here...only one space...lol

I will also open another thread for some extra parts I have to sell. Like an updated Intake Manifold with felpro gasket set, may have a like new black front plate filler if I can find it. I also have a set of Factory Manuals (used).

Thanks all....

I woke up that morning and had no plans of selling either. I got off work early (Holiday Hours) and just went by the dealer and one thing led to another....
