There was a whole host of things wrong and it seemed like every day the list got longer and longer. I let it go for next to nothing cause I was just that tired of dealing with it.

Btw, the Monte is now gone to a new home. Someone else's headache now. Guess I'll have to change my sig to reflect. I just hope I have enough gas in the Camaro to get me through the rest of the week till I can fill it completely up on Friday. I think I do though.
Drew I'm glad you found a buyer for your ailing Monte. I hope you got a good price for it.

Drew it just occurred to me that your Monte might have been rebelling to how you treated it. First you parked it on a set of railroad tracks for a few weeks with a church in the background, and then you put it in a field acroos from a tank shooting some arms. Your Monte was probably shaking in his boots. Lol.

Yeah Jerry that's the way I'm looking at it. I think I'm gonna try and see if I can scrape some cash together to go after that 84 Grand Prix. If that doesn't work out then as soon as I have the transmission in the truck I'll go ahead and put the Camaro in the paint shop. It did feel good driving it more than just to the store this evening (a friend needed a lift to the Verizon store). Can't wait till I go to KY next weekend and get to have her out on the open road. One of my coworkers will be happy to see the 73 in the parking lot at work. He has a 78. He had sold it to a friend and then as soon as I started working there he realized he shouldn't have sold it and bought it back from his friend LOL. Figure I'll wear my NastyZ28 shirt to work tonight as well. I hooked him up with a shirt and he wore it last night. Shoulda told him to hold off a night LOL.

I am glad my day is winding down. I've had three girls that are feeling under the weather so they have been a challenge today. On top of that when I got up I wasn't feeling that great. As the afternoon progressed I felt worse. I ended up calling out today. I am going to call it an early night so hopefully I feel better tomorrow.
