Good day all! Love the forum so far, lots of handy info. I recently purchased my thrid G-body (hence the user name) a 78 Monte. My first G was also a 78 Monte and when I ran across this one, I couldn't pass it up. It's burgundy (like my first) with a white bucket seat interior. Not a big fan of the white, but I'll deal with it for now.
The car came with no engine which means I'll have to finish the 350 I started building 6 years ago. Nothing major, maybe (very big maybe) 300 horse. Might go with 3.23's in the rear and a mild stall in a beefed up th350.
Im also planning to make the car handle like a roller skate. I'll post pics as soon as I can find the time. Nice to be in a Monte again!
Oh, my second G-bosy was a 78 Cutlass. Burgundy to. I must have something for that color, my wife and I just bought a new Kia and it's the same color as the new Monte. Weird.
Cheers!
