Hello Mia and hello GPD!!!!! How are things on the west coast? How is the Monte holding up?
Hard to believe it has been almost 4 years sine you were the Monte of the Month.... man oh man, I've been around this forum awhile now...

The Monte is doing fine. unfortunately, Mia's mom slammed my right rear quarter panel into a parking post.
I will take care of it one day. I have a good neighbor who has a body shop.
I just spend 400 bucks doing a major tune-up. The mechanic said my plugs had no electrodes left. It was kewl that the car still ran great with horrific plugs.
I have 160k miles on my brakes and the mechanic said they still look great and I have another 15k to go.
He told me that he could tell I was a good driver who was very easy on the brakes. He told me he has customers that waste their brakes consistently because they tailgate and brake all the time.
I just bought a bitchin' '92 Accord for $800 bucks. It runs perfectly well. I hope the Monte does the same when it is 20 years old.

Hi Grandpa `Dave,
It's great to see your post & update on Mia`Joy.
She is getting so big & beautiful...Time is fly'in 4-Sure.
At the end of this month it will be 6 years for me on the MCF.
I joined just after I turned 17 & I think I was the youngest
member @ that time.
(Now we have several member's under 21 that were
able to get a awesome Monte Carlo : )
I've sure met some great & interesting people during those
years on the MCF...I miss many of our former member's that
have moved on & got other super rides...A few still stop in & we still have a many of the old gang still here.
We miss your contributions & words.
Wish you & family the best in life & I hope we see you
more often on the MCF.
Peace/Out, the kid from `Space
