1964 monza sedan, 110HP w/pg. I have owned this car since December 2015. I have had the carbs rebuilt and added a set of vintage Mitchell trombones, added my Thule roofrack with bike racks for carrying mountain bikes(it also works for carrying lumber, plywood and drywall) and a front S-10 spoiler. I drive the car on a regular basis and have even made a few trips with it, the longest being a 400 mile round trip to a weekend long mountain bike festival loaded with bikes and camping gear.

Below is my 1966 Monza convertible. It has been repainted once in its original color of Madeira Maroon and still sports its original interior. Options on this car include a power convertible top, Powerglide, and the 140 HP engine. I purchased this car in July of 2014 out of Fort Gratiot, Michigan and it currently has 83,000 miles. Since acquiring it I have converted it to a dual-reservoir master cylinder, replaced the blower bearing, rebuilt the carburetors, and resealed the engine.

good afternoon all
something I don't understand

there has been over 700 views for this month and only 21 votes

not sure how that works?
personally I vote for someone most the time
why would you not take the minute it takes to vote?

it appears this happens most months

Just wondering

I think it goes up each time someone looks at it, whether they have before or not. I'm not sure but I believe that's how it works.
