bump! time for an update!

Is there any company that makes REPOP Wheel opening trim for our Montes? One of mine are alittle bent up. Helped a buddy with a 70 GTO build and he had OPG trim and it was complete junk in fit and finish.

I think Sam wanted more "In Progress" pictures

Dang, was hoping they were I. They look the same

I know the center console is different, I was curious about the shifter assembly itself. Like I said I can get it for next to nothing.

I work there as well, however I highly doubt you'll find anything of use. The new style column is way different.

Were all these shifters the same? A local yard by me has what I believe is a 73-77 Buick horse shoe shifter a 73-77 cutlass. It still has the column shift in it as well so it's definitely not original. I can get it for next to nothing. Complete! I know the console is not correct but curious if the shifter is the same. Looks identical. Heres what it looks like. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-76-buick-grand-sport-regal-skylark-century-automatic-center-console-/252236021563?hash=item3aba703f3b:g:NogAAOSwAYtWKkQL&vxp=mtr

Thanks all! But the picture makes her look better than she is, still a 20 footer at best. My phone kinda flipped the color alittle, it's more of a teal. But seeing it this way makes me consider the viewed color as an option when I paint her

Right now I'm still rolling on 43 yr. Old factory springs so it sits lower than it should and is softer. The only spot that will rub will be the out side edge of the inner fender. Everything else clears. I'm going to buy chevelle inners and rework them with rolling the fenders. Probably overkill but I'm pretty positive I won't have issues even under hard cornering after that

That t56 won't like that.

I've seen their products, they are very nice. The website is a bit of a pain though.

Well a holley high rise (EFI) intake is about 12 inches from valley to top and that should clear. (Will be close though) unless you are running fiberglass everything it will be tough. These are big cars.

T-56 will require some work on the tunnel. unless you are running a stupid tall intake with spacers you'll be fine. People run factory truck LS intakes just fine and they are pretty tall. Put inner fenders in. Street Car?

Trolling around on summits web site and yet I don't see a suspension bushing kit for our Montes. Are they the same as the Chevelle? I know the Monte is a longer sexier Chevelle an all but I wasn't sure if the Monte had and variances if the bushing departments. I'm guess this would be the same answer for the body bushings as well? Thanks, Matt
