Good morning guys. Just surpassed 24k miles on the Malibu yesterday.
It's a comfortable 56 degrees this morning, heading up to 86 today. We're still in this very dry spell. The last day we had ANY measurable rainfall was June 27 (15 days ago) - 0.33". Our last significant rainfall, higher than 0.2", was May 13 (60 days ago) - 0.45". And yet it has somehow managed to rain at every car show I've been to so far this year.
Michigan Monte Carlo Club's Spring Meet is in just two days > https://montecarloforum.com/forum/me...-2018-a-59234/
The owners just started a GoFundMe effort the other day with a goal of $500k to rebuild. Maybe their goal with that is just something to help with repair costs. I imagine the cost is going to be a lot higher than that.
Talk about the deal of the century
I didn't even catch that. It's gotta be bs with a borrowed picture and inaccurate info.

Good evening everyone, got distributor fixed and made it too a local car show. Got turned down at the gate because my Monte was to new , apparently the weekly show is 1980 and older. I walked around a little and even asked one of the judge's about it, his response was priceless " We don't want them rice burners in here" I politely commented . No you wouldn't want young kids in here showing there passion for cars. As I walked back to my car what do I see ? A crowd gathered around a rusty 2002 Monte Carlo telling me how they liked how it looked.

Wow that's an ugly thing to go thru. I think it's time to flip them guys off!

Here's the messed up part, it's a weekly car show every Friday night during summer. The two local city's by me have them and was told that the other city has a 1986 and older. Neither is a car club as there are plenty in the area and we just had the back to the fifty's which is 1964 and older and our biggest car show is next week Car craft nationals . I don't understand some peoples logic

Morning everyone, I took the Monte out and put some miles on it yesterday and managed to go thru a full tank of gas. I'm pretty sure the gas mileage isn't near as good as everyone else"s car Had a few issue's with the cooling fans thinking it's a bad circuit breaker. I was on the way to watch the World of Outlaw's last night when I noticed the guy driving behind me taking pictures of my car and getting the when he passed me. Also had a small crowd gather around when I parked , apparently people at the race track can spot a rear differential . Much better reception than at the car show , not one person mentioned the car was too new.

Good morning guys!
Another hot one today, going up into the low 90s, and then we'll have some relief into the low 80s for the rest of the week. We have a chance for severe weather later today as a cold front moves through. Hopefully some much needed rain!
I have Meet pics! Good time in Detroit at the Michigan Meet this past Saturday. Those Meet pics can be found here > https://montecarloforum.com/forum/me...et-pics-59939/
