    yea the timing belt broke and messed up 3 grand worth of stuff so i just sold it. Never got out to the Northern IL meets with it everytime i planned to go something came up. if i remember correctly my brothers monte and my cutlass might be on one of the calendars or was posted when they were starting to gather pictures for the calendar.
