Thanks. Nice muscle car, those early Monte Carlos. Works with the macho-cadet-car thing. Mine was a 78 Silver Anniversary Corvette. Still have it, and that silver paint looks worse than primer grey after 30 years of sunlight. Fast, Neat, Average... GL -

I love speedy cars and when we get a new one broken in (Joe doesn't believe them when they say they are ready to burn rubber after 500 miles...he figures they just want to ruin the motor so you will have to buy another one) and I've taken a trip to Salina or Jct. City, he always asks me, "Well, how much will it do." I ALWAYS tell him the truth....just like any good wife of 60 years would do!

My portfolio is not in stuff nearly as saleable as those Can Ams. You should have seen the corvette which I brought with me to MN, talk about a bad winter car. It was made of plastic of course, which tended to creak and make weird noises. Dave—I wish. My portfolio is not in stuff nearly as saleable as those Can Ams.

It also makes me wonder why I was so far behind the times. I didn't get my first motorcycle until I was 40 (it figures!)and couldn't afford a Corvette so settled for a Toyota Supra. Cool car but a nightmare in the winter.

You are lean. Me, not so much. EmDotin--thanks for stopping by and no, I must have missed the free Vette line. I had a red 1970 Monte Carlo, with a white top. Being young and stupid, I did get it with a four on the floor however. What was yours? Conrad, thanks. You are lean. Me, not so much.
