haha, yeah, are you talking about the guy from canado who reproduces them? I've checked him out and that's definately what I'll end up doing, I hope the frames good though, the cars like two different vehicles, doors up and clean as hell, but from the rear end back is pretty rough. haha. We'll see what happens, I'm in no rush it runs and drives great, and I can got a lick and stick so I'm content. 8)

yup that canadian guy, ive seen some of other monte with those horns, also let me know if you need some parts i have some spares and know of a 79 Monte in a junkyard near me.

i've got a spare center console with bread box, lower door panels w/spots for speakers from the grand nationals, tail lights, park lights. I dont know if your aware or not but the 78 and 79 have different tail lights and park lights.

Yeah I'm just gonna do some kind of aluminum door panel delete plate if it gets to that point, I like the look, and it goes with the drag car look I've kinda got going. I'll definately keep in touch though, thanks for the info.
