LOVE UR MONTE, SUPER CLEAN.

Oooweeee! Man your SS is flawless fam! Very clean. I remeber when my paint was this nice...

memories...I was 35 in this pic. Wow! Time flys (43 now)

Well Ive been gettin my save on for my next motor. GMP ZZ502 crate setup. Its what I originally wanted. I let a shop talk me out of it. So I gotta take it back. See that smile on my face? Thats cuz all I was thinkin about was that 502. Well I got that smile back and Im saving for it. Gonna take a lil bit to save up, but I have this new 350 to enjoy while I save. Once the cash is ready, the 350 comes out, front nose off, wells back out for respray, firewall gets molded and smoothed. The works. I did a "hood job" on my engine bay respray and it came out decent for what it is. Now Im confident and ready to step it up (well once the 502 comes along). Im back on the rides again and Im goin hard as f*ck on em till they are what I set out to do 8 years ago(DAMN! Time fly's!)

Ive been watching your progress from start to finish and you have done a outstanding job now if you don't mind i think you should put a list together with the links of where you got all the nice accessories for you car so most of us who would like to have what you have on your car can find it easier i know you have put links on some of the pages but i think putting them all on one page would be great.

 

[Bumpin1ohmSS]

I got you bro! It will take a lil time tho. I had all the links saved in my faves for peeps, and my hard drived crashed and I formatted and lost everything. I'll see what I can do. The way I will have it setup is I'll have a small "clickable linked" pic for each part. Just click the pic of the part you like and it takes you right to the page. BOY!! Thats gonna be alot of links! LOL! I may have a few links on my cardomain page. Hmmmm...I'll see wassup...Thanks for checking back on the old guy and all the cool comments bruh! That really keeps me fired up about the project.

No doubt bro I really like what you have done ill wait till you got it already to go.

Wow, can't believe how far the SS has come, Warren. Been following your progress on cardomain and youtube for quite a while. Looks great. Love what you did with the Cutlass door panels, I plan on doing something similar with my 79s door panels eventually. Amazing how long these things take - I pulled the motor and trans out of my 79 two years ago and I'm just now getting everything back together. Can't wait to get it running again. Thanks for the inspiration though - checking out your thread makes me wanna go out and do some more work on my Monte. Haha

What size are these rims? 22s? The stance is just perfect.

@ J3 Thanks for checkin it out bruh. Those are 22x9-tire is a 245-30-22. Not sure about the offset tho. They came off my Elco and have a new home on Mel's El now.

Wha???!! You guys dont see all that long flowing hair?? I'd NEVER rock the bald look! If I cut all my locs off I'll lose me strength!! 😛 Man Imma tell you. This working nights schedule has really slowed me down. Thankful for the employment tho... Starting this Saturday I'll be on vacation for 9 straight days. Gonna get to work on my dash swap and maybe start sandin and some bodywork on the SS. My dash swap will be easy as pie. All the factory guts are ripped out and since I had a rewire job, its all just unplug, plug and play. I'll have pics up ssoon! Thanks for checkin back...

Cool cool, appreciate the info. Yeah I bet that night shift does slow ya down. I've been tryin to get in some extra hours so I can buy more parts, but then that cuts into my time working on the Monte. Kind of a catch 22. As long as I get it back on the road this summer I'll be happy. Did you have somebody re-wire the SS for you, or did you get a kit? Cleaning up somebody else's bad wiring isn't something I'd wanna get into, heard too many horror stories. Hah. Are you gonna do all the bodywork yourself?

Later

I make CNC custom billet battery tray/hold down for optimas. Haven't made one with an actual bowtie tie down. But it can definitely be done. Ill have to try to get some pics of previous ones. Can do custom engraving and all that. We also custom engrave valve covers.
