Monte Carlo off topic thread.

Alright, this is a simple thread that you can post anything in here that you want as long as its within the forum guidelines.. hopefully this will bring some life to the forum as yes it is kind of dead. But get to posting people.

And here's just a gif I find hilarious..

Re: Monte Carlo off topic thread.

I'd join this forum, but I don't have a cool plush green couch in my front lawn, or a Monte for that reason

All though I would love to have an -87 SS one day.

Re: Monte Carlo off topic thread.

Another thing I think would be neat is the late '70's model with a TPI motor transplant, that would be neat.

Re: Monte Carlo off topic thread.

Re: Monte Carlo off topic thread.

Having owned 4 Montes in the last 20 years, a '76,'78, and two '81s I'd have to say my favorite body style is that of the second generation ('73 to '77). I just love the big GM cars from the late '60s through the '70s. I was so into Montes back then my friend and I knew all the little differences that changed each year such as the placement of the front emblem,(on the grill or on the header panel) and odd year Montes had the "bars" on the taillights whereas even years did not have any. My dream Monte was a 1973, similar to the one in the Original "Halloween" movie. I tried for the longest time to locate one in good condition in my area,which was hard because they all had rusted out. I ended up coming across a header panel with grill from a '73 and retrofitted it on my '76 which seemed hard at the time but wasn't. (It was a matter of moving a few items around and going from 4 square headlights to 2 round headlights.) The finished product looked great and confused some people when they saw the front assuming it was a '73, but when they saw the back and the smooth taillights from the '76. I even had taillights from a '75 that I wanted to mount on the car to further confuse people. Believe it or not I don't think I have seen a second generation Monte in my area in the past couple of years. I think they are all down south. Too bad they all rusted out in my area.

Re: Monte Carlo off topic thread.

Bryan, time to do some recruiting. Send out invite to all the members in your possy. It was shear luck the one day I found this site. I was looking up statistics on my camaro and came across this site and joined. Now I cant get enough.... Maybe you can ask ts to add a sub section or something. Kinda model it after the maro forum but with out all the sub sections. I am sure people would love to post vids of their cars, I do! PM the members and ask them what they would like to be done to the site to make them want to come more. There are ways to get people to come just need to find their G spot....

If you want help I will. But if you want people to come you have to make it fun. I am lucky. The Camaro forum was in full swing before I was ever thought of to be a mod. So my work is cut out for me. But if you want help to get people here just ask.
