My 83 Monte Carlo SS carb LS build

[Injectedcutty]

Making headway man! Wish i had the finances to knock mine out that quick, I'd been done with my cutlass 3 years ago!

Wheels have got to be one of the toughest decisions to make! I would recommend finding a good online wheel visualizer and play around with different styles until you find what fits your taste. Having a monte, it will be easy to load a pic, change the color, and search.....the chrome irocs would look good with the blue body, but they are heavy and you could probably find something not over-used on our cars that still look great.
Just my .02

thanks ! yeah I got lucky because over the summer I picked up a 2nd camaro SS dirt cheap and made a nice flip on it so I am using that money to build this I just hope that the car comes together and what i spent on it was worth it uknow

Nothing wrong with that! As long as you enjoy driving it that's what matters. Get the swap done, and if you plan on selling it in the future you shouldn't have an issue making your money back.
In my case, I've had my cutlass since '01 and there is NO possible way i could ever sell it for what I've got into it!!!! However, i don't plan on selling it as it's my 1st car and somewhat attached to it!

ok so I got the gas tank in ! I went with the dorman oe replacement and dorman oe replacement sender. now it was a tight fit but it worked !

removed all the old fuel line going to run the new one whenever i get another chance.

my boy showed me a sick idea for the wheel setup. Im toying with the idea... need to see if i can find them
