I'm joining CAA not because of the quantity of vehicles, but because of their priority in my life. It's too d*mn high! :shock:
I messed around with my car all week and ended up leaving myself only the next 3 hours to do 5 college assignments.
And now here I am posting about it on a car forum.

My parents still occasionally give me sh*t about the amount of money and time I put into the Monte but I always tell them would they rather have me spend my money on drugs like many of my old friends have or waste it on my car? Theres nothing wrong with it as long as the bills get paid and you can feed yourself or family if you have one first. Plus you are always learning new things and there's nothing like driving a car that you brought back to life.

We had a little thing at Osceola last month called the Midwest Buick Challenge. Needed more Buicks (including mine) but it was a good show.
(2 assignments down, 3 to go. lol)

Although even I sometimes wonder (between getting a winter car to save this one, re-building the rear, painting it, swapping the engine, upgrading the suspension, and all of the other costly ventures) what else I could've spent the money on. And do you know what the first thing that comes to mind is?
Nothin'. :lol: (Well nothin' fun anyway.)

Definately the truth!

here is my continuation from last night

If your basement looks like this.... you need to be in the CAA


ok, continuing from last night

then I started frame off restoring the 85


Then I bought a 78 olds cutlass that I sold I am toofast4u86 so no pics on that one

Bought an 84 regal, RIP...it helped save a few others...actually it came back from the dead and I believe it is back on the road...just the tag

We cannot forget the 83 Cutlass that was named Pinky from Brian at Gbodyparts. Pinky was cut up, and the frame runs under my 85 442, so rest in peace pinky



3 weeks ago I bought an 81 shell, rust free, not sure what the hell to do with it.




When you hang a frame from your ceiling and your wife consistently b*tches about the smell of paint and dirt from the garage, you need CAA
