WoW `Rick, you've been busy & productive 2day 4-Sure
You have a super set-up with a 3 car garage...I don't want another nice ride unless I have atleast one garage, but I dream of a 2 + more with room to work on my ride(s)...I also want a full range of good tools...Everytime my g/f & I talk about homes she claims that I am more concerned about the garage part of the home then the home itself (she is correct)
I work'in on my dreams, but it sure is taking a long time.

I also like to have a big lot of land for dogs/pets & dirt bikes + go-karts so my friends can race on the dirt instead of the streets (LOL).
I could go on 4-ever because I dream all the time
===================================
Where did `Angie `go ? Maybe out in a sport car with the girls
====================================
Hi Devin, what are you doing this eve ? Do you work 2night ?
I start again shortly, but I had some fun with my friends after work 2day doing some crazy skateboarding in the warehouse parking lots...It was fun, but I got tired & had to recharge

Slow day on the MCF, but I hope that means that member's are out having fun & driving their Monte's...

Wish everyone a Super Fun Safe `Eve & don't 4-get to Enjoy.

Catch everyone 2morrow `if I am given another day to live, love & pursue happiness..

Peace/Love/Happiness to all from `Space

Yup! We did it. It went down to 38 last night and it was windy as hell out there. So about 8 pm we turned on the furance for about an hr. Just to get the chill out of the house and then turned it back off. It hasn't been back on since. Not bad in here right now. Plus a lot of the wind died down also. makes a difference.

Evening all - I was shocked at the fact that my fiance turned on the heat early this morning - he said his threshold was 58 degrees. And that it was. We had the electric blanket and space heater on upstairs but when he went down to make breakfast it was too cold.

evening all, just got up from a nap I see everything is still red here. The michigan meet looked like it was a good time. Storms rolled through here and brought wind and cooler temperatures. 50 right now and breezy. Off to work soon

Heres the only 2 pictures i have from today, first was on my way to where i was headed and the second is in Roa Hook, NY. The bridge in the foreground is metro north railroad and in the distance you can see Indian Point nuclear power plant(the 2 bumps).

The monte is nothing but a headache...
Did my pads all-round & front rotors...gave her a oil change.

Two bottom caliper guides are siezed in the caliper..took me 3 hours of fighting to realize I can just take the bracket off & pull the caliper from it to grease.
Found out the location of the creaking/crunching; top of the right shock mount (identical to my 93 buick..)
Can't remove fuel filter. Looks original with all the rust thats caked on.

Took a total of 9 & 1/2 hours....
Just glad the monte stops nice...
