New Guy from Airdrie AB
Permalink  

Hey Guys, just stopping in to say hello and to do a show n tell. I am from Airdrie ab but work for the City of Calgary. I am 48 years old and have a couple of cars and a truck. love working on these old cars and attending the High River Show n Shine every September which draws on average about 1200 auto each year and is a blast..

car # 1 is a Baltimore built car but was imported into Canada for sale in 1970 and has GM Oshawa Documentation to go with it and is a 1970 Monte Carlo 402 4spd car numbers matching everything but needs a full resto now...

Car # 2 is another 1970 Monte carlo 402 4spd as well but is a bench seat 4spd and was built in Flint MI also numbers matching as well.

Car # 3 is a 1971 chevrolet CST Shortbox complete resto from front to back.

Last but not least and you guys have talked about this car lots on here I have noticed over the years and I have worked out a deal on it and waiting till spring to bring it home from Nova Scotia is another Baltimore built car but also imported into Canada back in 1970 is a numbers matching 1970 Monte Carlo SS and its Green as you guys joked about before hahaha..

Darren.

Welcome from Calgary. Your CST is on my "bucket list" of classic vehicles, I love the green - it's unique and looks great.

Nice cars and especially nice truck.  I have a bone stock 69 CST long box fleetside with every stock option I could find on it. (Including cruise and 8 track)  No AC though as it runs a 250 six with 350 turbo.  Great little round town utility truck although I have used it to go to all corners of the province as well. Mines kind of mint green but yours looks good in dark for sure!

Keep hanging in.  Good bunch of (mostly) guys here, except for me! heh heh

Welcome. Nothing wrong with a green Monte. Had a '71 back in late 1970's. One of my all time favourites.
