Hi `Joe, from `Vegas, NV

Welcome to the MCF

I think it`s better to be a `newbie, then a `oldbie : )

Sorry 2 read that your 86 SS was stolen : (

(Post pictures of `it, it you have them) `ok

Wish you Good Luck with your new Monte.

The 3800 has proven to be a bullet proof, `if it is

maintained & not abused.

Look forward to your future posts & more pictures,

and before you know `it you will be a

Super/Super MCF Member : )

Wish you a `Happy, from `Space

Welcome to the forum Joe!

Sorry to hear about your 86 SS. I remember in the late 80''s and early to mid 90''s, the 80''s Monte Carlo''s were among the most stolen vehicles. Around here the insurance companies were charging a lot more to insure a 4th generation Monte Carlo because of how frequently they were stolen. Then the chop shops got into the smaller imports, and the professional thieves didn''t seem to care as much about the 1995 and up Monte''s. (knock on wood)

It''s too bad that we can''t keep nice things. Some one always seems to decide that your stuff would look better in their possesion.
