Its more like 70/30 for me!

Between my Rhuematoid Arthritis and being an above knee amputee...Takeing care of my self is a full time job every day....

I do what I am physically able to do when it comes to the Monte...
But, Most times I have to pay someone to do up keep maintenance etc...
It would be most enjoyable if I could wash and wax the Monte by hand...But its a near impossible task...Before the Monte Nats...It took me almost a week just to wax it before I left...

Where as it use to take me a cpl hrs to wash, wax and detail it...
That's just an impossibility now for me to do...

Thanks everyone for your Votes in the Poll + your post(s)...It's fun to read how each member votes & how they perceive how they take care of themselves or their Monte's...+ it has added some activity to the MCF.

Space ask me to stay active when I can on the MCF & keep him updated. He said to try & made posts that members can enjoy & get involved. His big foot steps are difficult to fill. I miss our space & life is empty for the BeachBumFamily without him around 4really>Sure..
Peace & Happiness to 'all

Keeping the Monte clean keeps me healthy.
A clean car gets you compliments and keeps your confidence up, it also is a great hobby to keep you busy and stress away.
Cruising in a nice car also is a great stress reliever.
Also keeping a car clean and healthy is good so the car doesn't break every other day and keeps $ in your pocket which is also good.

So i think putting 100% into your Monte, come back into helping 100% of yourself as well.
