Yes Ryan.... That ramp setup really scares me. The steering looks like a lot of work went into it. Good Work!! rob

Nicely documented upgrade Bruce.... as usual! Thanks for sharing. rob

For the valve cover decal please click the link below, scan down to my post with the date and time stamp of Posted 14 May 2015 - 02:26 PM and click on the third picture. For some reason the first two pictures would not open for me. rob http://www.firstgenmc.com/forums/index.php?/topic/11271-what-did-you-do-to-your-monte-carlo-today/page-20

On my SB350 the Towanda decal went was on the passenger side valve cover right on the top front of the cover. rob

Full Halo Was Not an indicator of early to late production. Mine is a very late production 70 and it has a full halo trim. Full Halo or partial Halo was more related to near production line change over and if the line ran out of the Full Halo trim. rob

I drove my Monte to work today. While working on our son's car Sunday, replacing the drivers side tie rods I cracked the Steering Knuckle. He is using Patsy's car and she is using mine so "unfortunately" I needed a vehicle to drive to work in..... BINGO!!!!! No rain or snow forecast today so I decided to drive the Monte. Hard to make the sacrifice but someone had to. rob

Wow, no snow on the ground and yet you can still start to see a snowball starting to roll. rob

Looks like a good start Tony. It is unfortunate that taking pictures of chrome or polished aluminum (shiny objects) never come out to show their true beauty. Can't wait to see the finished product and them mounted on that freshly painted Monte. Keep us posted on your progress and I am sure Tony D or someone else will come across with a good way of coating them again. rob

Very nice Kevin. Are you still trying to sell it? Rob

I agree.... our cars don't need synthetic oil. rob

Tony is on vacation in the Bahamas... Either that or the 80's he is talking is what he is reading on his speedometer. rob

Tony, Do what some others have done over the years.....We have seen trim installed at the Eastern Meet in Commerce Ga... sometimes with Duct Tape. We have seen the decals installed on Kevin's Coke Machine in the hotel parking lot at the Indy Eastern Meet. We have seen other trim work completed in the hotel parking lot in Greensburg, Pa during an Eastern Meet. We have seen Show Panels installed in the parking lot during a Carlisle, Pa Eastern Meet. At the Eastern Meet in Bristol Tennessee, on the same evening, we dropped a tranny pan to replace the tranny filter on one car while we replaced a water Pump on Andreas's Monte.... You see, the installation of of a vinyl roof at the hotel would not be a problem.... Several members coming have personally already done at least one. rob

Thanks Tony.... I am sure it isn't JUST for me because we won't be able to keep others from looking too. She is looking GREAT!!! Keep um coming. rob

Like Tony said.... she didn't go willingly. Also I noticed it was the only one of the cars in the crusher which had been stripped for parts. It is nice to know that maybe other first gen Monte's live because of that ones hardship. rob

Tony, Tony, Tony......you know what it says in the club bi-laws...'no pictures, it didn't happen' rob

Leave it to Larry to find ANYTHING for our Monte projects. rob

You really need a Coon's Tail on that Antenna. That would really set it off. rob

Sorry to hear about all of your issues Larry, it shouldn't happen that way... You didn't say if the noise is now gone. rob

Doesn't work on mine either...says the same thing. rob

Rodney, I am sure someone here knows but it may take a little more time for that Right person to see your post and respond but I am sure that will happen. rob

Bruce, thanks for sharing your restoration pictures. I always enjoy your restoration records. rob

I can't see much of her front end but what I can see looks to be smiling........ maybe not as big of a smile as is on your face I am sure!!! Rob

Tony, glad to hear the weather did not hinder her return home.... If it had been here I am sure you would have waited for the conditions to be better. Now we can look forward to seeing the progress of her coming back together. Ya can't beat the progress of the trim going back on. rob

Now get that old girl home and get her dressed up to go out on the town!! rob

I agree with others.... go with the rubber. Just a note when ordering, don't forget, some of the lower control arms used round bushings while others used oval. My 1970 350/350 had oval. ron
