Thanks everyone for the congratulations and a little fun fact the two exterior pictures of my car just happen to be in ASC headquarters parking lot.
 
Great win , I am really curious as i am sure so are alot of other people, WHATS IT DO AT THE TRACK, do you have any video's?
 
Congratulations 565 BBChevy; The" Jewel of the forum". But ya gotta take it to the strip at least once? Again I'm going to try & instigate you to attend the Car Craft Nat's, it's only 200 (give or take) miles for you. I would really like to lose a round to you at the mid night drags, after I try & post a better time on the auto-X. Your machine is "Out Standing", but it's still a machine, lets find out how well all parts you have put work together as a team. Hope to see ya at the Nat's, Bob Jr.

My Monte has never been to the track but eventually I will get it there just to see what it will do, my car is truly a street car that helps me keep my sanity after a long work week driving a slow F650 all day.

no excuse. what good is having a power plant like that 565 BB if you don't use it, a roll bar, nos, everything else you have done to it, alot of money to make it look like it's race ready and then just cruse around town,but hey its your car you can do what you please, not trying to start anything, just saying WHAT A WASTE, one BEAUTIFUL RIDE, It looks to me like it is saying TRY ME I DARE YA 🙂

You seem to be under the impression that I have the free time on my 6 day workweek to load up a truck and trailer that I don't own and then spend 2 hours driving to a strip (which would probably be closed) just so I can drive my car, to that I would say "WHAT A WASTE".
The Monte I have now is built from years of ownership and constant changes so it has evolved over time to what you see now.
I built my car to be enjoyed when I can find the time and to fulfill my need for power which it does quite well, I am sorry that you feel it should be some sort of dedicated strip car that would end up just sitting in my garage most likely all year but then again I did not work this hard building everything on this car myself to satisfy any need of yours, but Thanks anyways for the partial compliment.

I don't understand everyone's obsession with track times anyways. His car is certainly very quick as well as fast. If anyone doubts that, then they must certainly not know what they are talking about. Not everyone feels the need to go to the track to "measure their dick" whether they have the time to or not.

Im not trashing you, your car or the time and work and money you put in to it, and i am by no means suggesting it should be a dedicated strip car that would end up just sitting in your garage most likely all year. I totally understand its your ride and you did it for you and the hell what others think thats the way it should be, i meant no disrespect to you at all, all i was saying is with what you have MYSELF I WOULD WANT TO KNOW how well i did and see what it would do 4-5 times down the track,and knowing that would make me even prouder,AGAIN i ment no disrespect towards you and your ride, you do have one BEAUTIFUL ride, STAY BLESS NOT STRESS
 
Congrats.....That's a sweet ride. Someday I'd like a bbc in mine☺ what car did the console come from?
