Glad to see that you're thoughts are returning to matters of importance. I didn't see any Monzas on eBay recently but there is a V35 Imola. That might be an even better addition to your fleet since it augments rather than duplicates what you already have. Go for it, time's a-wastin'.

Was it the one in Millerstown PA? If so I am only about 1:15 south on I-81 (Scotland Exit 20). If your roadtripping your more than welcome to stop buy for refreshments and a BS session.

That's very kind of you, but I won't be able to travel. TheKid will pick it up. .I went about the same distance to pick up a Duck for his sweetie.  :smiley:

Your son is just as welcome to stop by should he want a break from driving. Heck I even have a bunch V50 MKII motor parts if you want you can have.

Block,
Pistons
Rods
Push rods
Sump pan
Parts transmission
I'm sure some other stuff as well

I'd like the stuff to go to a place where it will possible be used and I don't want to fool with shipping.

Bring a big trailer and a bit of cash and he can look over the the following to see if there is something he or you cannot live without.

T3
850T
Sport Convert
V7R
Maybe just maybe the Eldorado
Royal Enfield

Also have a few BB Cal-II engine parts

I'm certainly on board for the small block stuff..if he's willing. He's *maybe * thinking about having a friend fly him out and riding it back.  :shocked:
I'll pass the info along, he's building a cafe. He's already headed back to Wisconsin since he figures I'm out of the woods, now.

 I think the word you should have used in the thread title is snooze.
 Snoose is something north American Skandihoovians  stick up their nose or pack under a lip
 As they work in the woods.  The lip snoose enables them to spit further than the rest of us
in an objectionable manner.  I once saw one pick up a field mouse by the nape of the neck
 and when it opened its mouth to squeak, he spit in it.  The mouse immediately died.

Good find Chuckie!  I wouldn't mind one myself some day. Glad your obviously feeling better. Rode the Lario initial run of '16 today after fixing flat on rear. Fit that lario ditch pump in the Monza for kicks. Nice upgrade.

I like the little 500 in the small block.  Had one in a mark 3 when I gave up on finding a Monza  several years ago.  :smiley: My 4V days are probably over.  :cool:

The Kid says that same seller has been putting up something cool about once a month. Must be thinning out his collection.

Glad to hear your doing well.  If the kid decides to drive out to retrieve it, I might be available to assist.
