Our 79 Monte Carlo- Pro Touring Project

Which change? On the flat arm? On the green machine we have the bump stop support removed to save some unsprung weight. The rebound stop doesn't do much except for when the car is on a lift.

Is that what you meant?

Ah, no particular reason other than natural design progress. Mainly just appearance. Geometry is the same.

Kind of like iPhone 6 and then the iPhone 7 comes out...

Oooh, I love it. Used to be you couldn’t buy anything for our cars period and now we are reaching an area of “proprietary design” secrets! And believe it or not, I actually mean that. Now, I’m a retired engineer, so it will drive me nuts wondering why the geometry change from tube to flat but I will get over it . . .

Eventually . . . 😵

But you can tell us if you want?

Splitter is up high since we still have to load it in the trailer.

Can't wait to see if the nose stays down during road course duty. 🙂

This is easily the meanest '78-'80 Monte Carlo that has ever been. 4 thumbs up for the aero. Yes, I'm forcing someone else to put their thumbs up with me.
This car has no business being this nasty. lol

That thing looks comical (in a good way). I was watching a guy on youtube who made his own aero from CF. His learning progression was very fun to watch. Took him about 8 laps to learn how to drive with aero. ie: Grip on the fast corners, and no grip in the hairpins. He would slowly become overconfident and go off track. Something that seems obvious but i never considered. Take lots of video when you take it out.
