Congrats bro! :bump:

While, the MC is back in the shop :( The place that ornigally "REPLACED" my motor was brought out and is now refusing to do work on the engine i brought from them. So Ive taken it to a more creditable shop here in Arkansas and they gave me the options of fixing what's wrong or replacing it...

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) I did 20s on the rims figured that would be nice but not to big

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) So i pretty much got all my emblems (minus my hood ornament) I'm gonna add a black and chrome chevy bowtie and a chorme Razorback to the trunk and once that's done i'll have my stripping redone down the sides (still debating on the stripping)...

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) So after wheels and paint i wanted to get my emblems back in order. Wasn't really feeling paying $150-$200 for a new hood ornament so i just stock with the sail emblems and "Monte Carlo" emblems

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) So my next big thing i needed to do was get my wheels in order, I love the stock wheels that came with my monte but they were rusted and missing center caps so i needed to replace em until i can get em sandblasted and painted. I wasnt really...

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) So when i went back to check out the finished project i was very happy!

Re: My 1985 Monte Carlo SC (Continuous Project) So after filing a report with the BBB and sending my car back to the shop a few times, it was finally at a point were it was drivable again, not driving as i feel a new engine should be but drivable. So after getting my baby back first thing i...

Brought new by my granddad for my moms and pops back in 1985, they were the only owners until it was passed down to me prbly around 1999. Wasn't really feeling the car but as time went on and the offers to buy it became more and more, i decided to go ahead and get and see what i was working...

Thats real sweet yo, I always think about "modernizing" my Monte but i get discouraged because of the lack of knowledge. Thanks for sharing this info :bump:

Once again in my 1985 Monte Carlo SC has gone down on me :cry: This time I've exhausted most of my cheap and easy to do options and before i spend any more moolah i wanna get a full diagnostic done. The problem is she is not drivable at the moment and I'll have to do a quick diagnostic at the...

I knw for a fact that that control arm in the glove box is broke, Im gonna have my mechanic look at it tmrw cuz the humidity level here in Arkansas is starting to raise and I'll be damned if i spend another summer riding with that heat adding to the 100 degree weather. Im wanting to get the A/C...

No part of the key is in the lock cylinder, i figured i could glue it and have them make a copy but the wal-mart guy says it throws the cpu off. I think i'll try my luck with the dealer tmrw morning, sad part is no sooner then i get a key im just dropping the car of to get a fuel line fixed...

Im in Arkansas so we got plenty of wal-marts, but the guy said he couldn't make a copy off the broke one and im guessing that can't use the VIN system like the Dealer or Locksmith. Yeah im gonna make plenty of spares, hell the one i thought was my spare most of come off our old Cutless or...

My freaking ignition key to my MC just broke and we don't have anyone open this time of night to make me a copy. Since im gonna have to wait till the morning anyways, I was wondering if it would be best (meaning cheaper) to goto a GM dealership or to a locksmith?

Well after finding a good ole shade tree mechanic and giving him a 6 pack, he found out that i had a pinched fuel line or fuel pressure return line and he thinks might have happen when the motor shop sat my new engine in. So tmrw im calling the motor shop and letting them knw what a "licensed...

Tried this in the Monte Carlo forum with no luck, but im wondering if anyone else may have came across the same problem or can offer any info on this one. I believe my TBI on 1985 Monte Carlo SC is going out, gas is burning rich and can be smelled outside the car once I've come to a stop. I...

Update: New Monte Carlo Knight Emblems, Need Placement Ideal I decided to go with the emblems factory placement, might be a inch or two higher but I think they look good
