Hello, again. It's been a while since I've posted here. Kind of an update type of post. Dad got diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer towards the end of February last year. He passed 2 weeks ago. He did put up a good fight against it, making it longer than what we were told. Though he did get to drive the Monte around before he got too weak. But he didn't get to take it down the strip like he wanted to.

The car is basically ready to go. We got it back a couple days after dad passed. It had a fuel leak from a cheapo 1c plug and the neighbor changed out the Jets for smaller ones since it was running a little rich. I have a couple or so things to do. One is swapping out the fuel tank for one dad got. It is bigger and has a sending unit! Another thing is getting a higher mph speedo, then getting it hooked up. Then replacing the weather stripping on the doors.aybe a thing or two I can't think of. Once this coronavirus jazz settles down, I'll clean the car up and make a proper thread for it again.
