I have had things stolen and now well, I am 38 yrsold and understand to some degree why people steal a)theyre lazy dirtbags b)maybe in a real bad spot and need to feed the family c)are just thieves d)do it for the thrill e)cant make an honest living f)werent raised right, the list goes on and on. But while I agree with none of them I understand it.

To a younger person they cant and it wil jade their perception of people to some degree, try not to let that happen Floyd, let them see you handle it well and their emotions will follow, dont get too negative about the dirtbags that stole it in front of them even though I too would be seething. Shrug it off as a "well they obviously need it more to steal it" and let them know youll built the next one better, the next one is always better because you learn on the first, try somehow to turn it into a positive for them.

You understand I think what Im trying to say.

I do know where theres a complete and rust free Monte (81) for about $800 no title, its in a shop that has been owed money on it for 10 years...lol...they never re-applied for a title. Its just sat inside...its my cousins shop, if he wasnt so broke and needing the money I would ask him to donate it.....but its an "option" I guess, Ill root around if there is anything I can think or find SBC and GM Ill ask you if you can use it.

Ill also keep an eye out, but I dont see it ending up here, Ebay and CL though.
