That's the next thing I have to learn how to do. Anyhow back on topic. Some shots of replacing the rockers, full quarters, rear wheel-wells, full floor and trunk floor.

Kent Board here and lookin forward to meeting Monte owners like myself. I bought my 1970 a year ago in North Carolina and love it! The story behind this adventure starts with 20 mile drive but had to turn around due to the power steering gone out on my Dodge 2500. A quick switch to my F250 ( time is now midnight ) and on the road again. 5 hrs later I arrive ; purchase car only to find out it is wider than my trailer. My wife has to drive truck and trailer and I drive the Monte back to Ky with no insurance and expired tags. 2 pm I finally arrive home with car.

Turns out it's an external regulator, which has burned up another internal 1 I had installed. The guy's at the parts store are real buttnuts and kept giving me internal !!! So here's the new plan. I've read on here about a conversion kit from M&H automotive elecrical #27555 $21.00 plug and play it will be here Tuesday

Thanks, but to be honest we didn't think at the beginning of the project it would be this much. But with a lot of research and internet information/videos we've learned a lot. Here's a shot of my grandson getting some hands on welding lessons and experience from his father.

Prep'ed the body for frame mounting.

If you have space, I’d keep it. Small blocks are cheap these days as everyone is yanking them for LS stuff and putting their old stuff up for sale. Unless the buyer is looking for your exact engine, I don’t think you’d get much for it. JMO

My spouse saw the cramped conditions we had to work in so she opened the purse strings and gave the go ahead for us to build a proper home for the Monte Carlo.
