Joe Ruble's Monte Carlo

This was my grandpas 1976 Monte carlo he bought brand new. It has the original 400 small block Chevy with the turbo 350 trans. Has only 87,452 miles on it and he drove and drag raced as well. In 1998 he handed it over to my dad due to him getting early stages of Alzheimer’s so it was parked at my dads in his garage from 1998 til 2015 when I ended up with it. I put a new fuel pump and a battery as well some new tires on it and some new rear bumper fillers. It took me and my dad and brother in law 6 hours of wet sanding and buffing to get it to shine again. I’ve ran it in the good guys nationals in Columbus Ohio in 2018 at national trail raceway running 16.49 in the quarter mile. I take it to as many shows as possible in memory of both my grandparents who owned the car as well as my wife’s dad who passed away in 2014. Every show I go to I dedicate it to my grandpa and grandma ruble who loved this car dearly. I call it ol monte because that’s what my grand pa called it. Thanks for having me as a cruisin time subscriber
