Some of the 2024 Photo's that I took of My Black MC
 
Work in progress year for the MC, I put some different wheel and tires on it this year from a Dale Jr MC.
Carshows were spotty do to all the Rain days during the weekends. I just hate crawling around under the Car to try and clean it up. Plus it seems like the Judges will give me bad marks and let the other guys go
!
They even jump categories to get a better placing
:thinking:. Corvettes even? Stay in you lane LOL https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/monteca...6a2d75d764.jpg

Nice pics. Don't let the car show shenanigans get to you. You know what you got, you are proud of what you got and that is all that counts.

Looking nice!

Hard to find any 5th gens this clean anymore.

This is so rare as of late, very few really ever even post staged pictures of their Montes. What the hell Sarge, you run about the whole state of Nebraska, there are a myriad of backgrounds. Probably took you a whole pack of cigarettes driving time, point a to b to c to d to e to f . The one with the raggedy ass barn goes well with your raggedy ass car... Oohh, burn in hell Greg, lol, have to bust your chops, keep you in line, making you work to get the Monte more tricked out before the next array of pics are due for 2025.

Are those 17" wheels or the 16's, I always like that 2 tone look, wasn't that the only car those were made for? They work well with your color scheme, nice pick slick, your eye sight and brain function get an A. Don't go get all big headed, the only way to make things better is to get a 6th gen, likely you won't be taking me up on that. That would mean you would win in most every car show, those 6th's just oohh and ah everyone, not! Guess we all have learned, you need extra thick skin to take a Monte to a car show. Hell even if Dale himself were next to you, they would not look at the Monte, you know it's true boo.

I thought you bottomed out and squished your muffler tips, ovals, really, where are you, Talladega? Lol, left turn muff tips, jheesh there go all your atta boys, 1 screw up and you are kicked in the nuts. Nah, just playing you, little NCO bantering, my friend thats not bad looking Monte for a leg. I'm envious on how well you have the undercarriage in order. Looking good Mr. Kotter, that is a lot of real estate to maintain on your back. But then its probably a good place to hide from Mrs.Bickleman, was it? Like the stainless exhaust, really shows well, I can see you really like to stroke them pipes and polish the tips, extra clean.

What is that interior console shot, you supposed to be showing us something? I would be really impressed if there was a cold beer koosie there and a niche just for that pack of Marlboro Reds you chain smoke. Anyway amigo, looking a sick as always, there is a whole lot to take in, you have been a busy beaver. Yor car show roadside setup is over the top. Thanks for sharing drivernumber3, and please, next time there better be one of them tires smoking...

Very few really ever even post staged pictures of their Montes. That is all your fault as you are to blame for the photo contest we used to have on here and a bunch of us really went all out for it.

. I have given up driving in the Rain that helps alot on the underside of the car.
But then its probably a good place to hide from Mrs.Bickleman, was it?Mrs. Bickerson! lol 51 years now.

Yeah I got that whole set up for $85.00 came from a guy that put them on the Z-sport Monte Carlo's back in 95 he had like 3 sets and wanted to move them out. The tips are polished stainless and reminded me of the ones I had on my Chevelle back in the 70's
I put some Mirrors down under it but no body stops to check it out any more so I don't put them out any more.

What is that interior console shot, you supposed to be showing us something?
Well the lids on these things always broke and I found a new one on a salvaged MC and then I recovered the top in the Carbon fiber fabric Then I had a 3 that I rescued from a pair of gloves its kind of a vinyl thing.
I am not certain I would want a 6th Gen usually when I inspect the wrecked one at the salvage yard I see that they really reduced the Quality on the later built ones because of this it's hard to find real good parts to rescue.
But with some of the 6th gen items I have got mine, it is probably a 5.5 Gen now :rotfl:
I see a few of the 6th pace car editions at the shows, But they don't do much better than I do.
The Bozo's who are so called Judges really don't know what they are doing! they have a check list and they make a mark on it for a 10 items and there done with a 1-10 rating. I have judged a few and I try to find the owner and look at the special things that he or she has done.
Maybe if I pay by Check and after I make it out I cut it in half and tell them I'll be back with the other half after the show?!?!:whistling:
Anyway thanks for the great comments,
but I don't smoke last time I did that the pacs were 75cents in a machine now I think a Carton is $75.00 I used to tell the team members that I worked with that were always puffing that I could get them to quit in no time........ the answer is figure how much it cost per year to have that habit and then give me that money and you won't be able to afford it and now you have quit. They were scared then!:eek:

Thank you! Gets a little bit stupid that they don't check some of that stuff. I need to find a different category.

THANK YOU!!! :thanks:
I see some on occasion, mostly on the road driving and I never get a chance to see them after that. I was in Omaha, NE a couple of weeks ago and seen one driving on the freeway right in front of me looked really clean too. then it was gone. lol

I have black no 3 as well. Not as nice as yours. When I got it, it had 3 other ones who didn't take care of it. Now I have to fix it. Some body damage that can be fixed by replacing the fender and the bumper back guard. The inside is so trashed from their abuse. I have got some parts from pick and pull but not all and no one to work on it for me. I have parts for breaks, water pump, power steering,that my cousin bought fore, when my son kicked me out of the house and on the street
For being a 2004 it only has 85000
