About every 3 to 5 yrs the Chevelle insurance man comes out to take pic's of the Chevelle. Just to update his folder So drove it out to the front of the garage and let it warm up. Natually with the headers wide open. He jumped back when it kicked over. He was standing next to the drivers door when it started. Me being cool as I'am. Just smiled. Then I let it idle while he took his pictures. I shut the cutouts off so it would a little noise:p. He asked to see the motor. So I opend the hood. Nothing special. Just a V 8 4 bbl. I then asked him want to go for a ride. He looks at his watch. I tell him stop that & get in. We'll be back in 5 mins. We gets in I ease down the street headers wide open again. He puts his seatbelt on and is looking around. I tell him theres nothing to hold on to. . Just sit back and enjoy the ride. I take it real easy all the way thru town and almost all the way back. Were talking and he's at ease now! So i might as well show him how it runs. RIGHT ?. I pull it down into 1st and jump on it then shift to 2nd and so forth. He got one hand on the dash. I then let it back down slowly. He's not even looking at me:p. As we get closer to the neighborhood. He gets better. I asked him what he thought. His words. Geez us christ I never been for that kind of ride in my life I about pissed my self laughing so hard. When we get back. He talking a mile a min. I offer him a soda. He takes it and it gone in 5 seconds. Then tells me next time you come by the office can we do this again! And he'd buy lunch...Oh Hell yeah we can. He stays and talks for a few more mins and shakes my hand. Then leaves LOL Hope my premiums don't go up

 

I was just about to make the joke, AND then your premiums raise...

 

Haha! Awesome story I think your premiums might go down if he's interested in cruising again

If you'll take me for a ride in yr Monte ! Then we can do a photo shoot of the Montes .

i do plan on hitting the anoka car show this summer

 

Haha, this is a great story. Reminds me of a story from when my family was looking at the chevy colorado's after they had came out.

My dad test drove it, and the sales manager came with us. My dad took it easy until we got into a residential area, at which point he got on it, and we hit a dip pretty hard, probably at 40-50. I'm not entirely sure but I think we got all four wheels off the ground at one point.
I later heard another sales guy mention to the manager who rode with us, "Heard you had a wild one earlier."
He was like, "Yeah, it was quite a ride."

 

haha thats awesome

 

Lol that's funny. I did that to the salesman when I bought the monte. I was just cruising around and then I came to this 3 way corner that can be hard to get onto the main road so I just stomped it. My teenage daughter was in the back laughing,my wife and the salesman looked terrified. But hey I had to test out the supercharger

 

Did you check the seat for a puddle or stain?
