About me and my passion for cars
My passion for cars delveloped at the tender age of between 4 and 5. This was the era of Smokey and the Bandit and of course the Dukes of Hazzard. Finally in high school GTOs and other muscle cars were all I talked or cared about and that didn't piss me off.
My first car
Bought by me....1984 Monte Carlo SS. Yup I still have her.
Car I wish I still had
I still have it. Never will I part with her Hell, bury me in it.
My dream car
My 68 GTO undergoing a resto, but my true love is my Monte. Can't explain.
Car clubs I’m in
Electric City Gtos. Sort of..not very active anymore...

- Thanks for checkin the old SS out. Got a looong way to go to get her as clean as yours is, but that's the fun part. The wheels are 20x9's all around. I want to get the rear well mini tubbed, and run a 22x9. I want that "prowler" look, but still be able to stay low.
