This is my 82 monte carlo that i bought for $500 as another project for my dad and I to work on. Im only 19 and this is goin to be my first car. It had been sitting in a barn for 7 years and according to the previous owner had been put on a monte ss frame with a 3.73 posi rear end. The car had some minor rust on the drivers side front floor pan and the typical floor rust around the rear wheels. Otherwise the car is mint and has no rust in the rear frame rails. for a motor im going to use a rebuilt 350 with 305 HO heads with bigger valves installed and i am swapping the trans to a 200 4r. I will keep posting more pics as i go on.
