Nice score Toby! I'm assuming that you're going to do a correct original restoration on this one, same as the 442. You said you got a 350 Olds with the Buick, is the original hot air turbo V6 totally gone, or is it retreivable? If so, do you know where to find replacement powertrain?
I have a set of the Lear Seigler seats here, that I'm going to get re-upholstered to go into my Monte SS. Do you know if its possible to install the factory seat belt guides on the headrests on the Lear seats? I'm figuring that there should be some kind of structure in the headrest that the seat belt guide would screw into, if its made for them.


Yea, plan on a full restoration as well. I need to put a replacement engine and trans in. I know it will not match, but....what do you do? As for teh LS seats...I am currently inquiring the same questions so as I learn I will let us know.

They came with seat belt guides ability to mount in all head rests.

Looks like your gonna need that structural t-top header in this one, or does it not look as rough as it seems?
