I was gassing up and this nice young woman says, "Nice Monte" to me!
Geez, I hope the current Mrs 'Ed' doesn't find out.

So, the question is ---- do you and how often do you get compliments on your G Body?
Up to this point it's mainly been old geezers and the occasional youngin'.. oh, an American fellow who told me about his 454 swap.

E only compliments I got on mine are in the build threads most people around here just think it's a junk car in fact last time it was on the trailer some guy said. Doing some scraping?

I got a thumbs up from some older, white dude with a beard on the way to work last week.
I had no interest in his lady parts if he had them, so you're at least one up on me!

My cars have always attracted more sausage than clam... if you know what I mean. ;)

Ya'know what you get when you have a bunch of New england stoner chicks? A Clam bake.

Anyway, I always got compliments on my regal, especially when it was clean. I DD'd it for the longest time and after i swapped in the 350 Buick I got more compliments from both sexes. These pics are the times it's been the cleanest since I got it. The pic with me in it, I was 15, and that was the day I got it, April 5th 2014. Car looked great at dusk cruising around with the parking lights on.

Even that raggedy old thing over there

gets compliments almost every week. Last Wednesday a guy probably about 30 chatted me up at a light, said he grew up with an Aspen wagon. Now there's something you almost never see these days.

I think people are really starting to love the older cars. The sound and body lines you really can't beat, and besides the fact you feel real safe in driving them.

Here in Niagara all you got to do is drive down Lundy's lane near Clifton Hill and you'll feel like a movie star with people yelling and snapping pictures of your classic !

Not bragging but every time l take the Elcamino out, even to the corner store l hear nice car , wow don't see them around much.

Now the Z-28 l hear people call it sexy which makes me cringe abit, Sweet l can deal with , lol !

The olds they always comment on the exhaust tone.

If there all parked in front(rarely) of shop l'll get people pulling in or walking by stop to and talk or just have conversations between themselves.

I got security camera's so that can be really entertaining just like watching TV listening to the conversation's.
