Hi, my name is Brett. I am 14 years old. I'm from Connecticut.
I just bought my first car a couple months ago. It is a 1983 Monte Carlo CL.
The guy that we bought it from is my uncle's friend. He told us about the car. From what the guy told us, he bought it from some one for $3000. He said he wanted at least half of that. My dad tried to lower the price, so he told him that I was paying for it. So he lowered it to $1000, and that is what we bought it for. It has been sitting for 12 years under a car cover on a concrete pad. Absolutely no rust. He only put 32 miles on it in that 12 years he has had it. But 12 years ago, the gas must have been good because when we tried to start it, it started right up after we put a new battery in it.
-about 71000 miles on it.
-V8 305
-T-Tops
-power seats, windows, door locks
-am/fm stereo radio
-cruise control
I am going to paint it White. I will probably get an LS1, ZZ4 350, or, (like in the recent Car Craft Magazine) an LQ4 that had 480 hp with new heads and a milder cam. We are going to make it look like an SS with a new front nose, 1988 rear bumper and taillights, and a lay-down spoiler.
Burnout on thew first day,
