You can get college grades for a speech on monza's???

Holy cow!
I am missing out on my degree!!

what cool college is this?

Anywho I wrote a little something on my website's main page.

You can say it verbaitim if you want straight A's... :))

But then you'll owe me big.

Might have to take me to dinner or something :P

here's my page..

www.geocities.com/marcos_monza_world/main.html

In re-reading what I wrote back in 2004, I'd actually change some things around a bit, but you'll get a decent idea of what to say.

You can email me at v8monza@frontiernet.net as well.

I'd be glad to help.

You've tapped into the right resource for all the information you'll need......no library will give you this. Well I take that back, if you can find the 'Standard catalog of chevrolets' book, you will have much of the info you'll need to look well informed.

So good luck and if you have any specific questions just ask.

cathy,

Can you give us an excerpt of what you have so far on the 75-77 Monzas? Where did you find that information?
