KJRich. Years ago here in Arizona. I was criusing on the Harley. I saw this Awesome LOW Rider. I turned around to look at it. And maybe take a few pictures. As I stopped to look. About 4 to5 guys come out of this house. Walking towards me. Saying something in Spanish. I said a few words back. Told them it was a very Kool car. I was there for about an hr talking to them. They were as Kool as Hell. Had a beer with them and got to take a few pictures. But I was never one to just take a picture of someones ride. Unless I was at a show or it was in a parking lot. Respect is a BIG thing!

I'm with you Rick. Got no problem taking pictures at shows or gatherings. But just sitting in front of someone's home -- not cool. If it was my car, I'd be wondering if the guy is making plans to steal it or something. Respect does go a long way.

Sounds like you made some new friends.

I agree. But............... I'm guilty of doing just that. Walmart, Target, Meijer, Kmart. I see a Monte I grab for the camera. I can't help it. I've got enough Monte photos to fill a couple albums.


My buddy Dave is the Hotwheel king
I think Debbie's collection may be close to Dave's?

Haha, public parking lot is more fair game I suppose. I've been guilty of doing that with Daytonas, since you see so few of them anymore.
Although I did snap a pic of the other '03 Pace Car that's in the area. When the weather gets nice I'm gonna track him down and take a pic of both our car together.

I'll admit that I have taken pictures in parking lots. But usually from inside the window tinted protection of my car.

And here I thoughtI was the only stalker around. I'm always taking pictures on parking lots of other Montes, or driving by houses where I know a Monte will be parked. A favorite target is other cool cars - I love to take pics of my white Monte parked next to Corvettes or Chargers. My car usually looks the fastest!

We should come up with a more P.C. term for "stalker."
