No. That "all chevy show" was discontinued. This is a totally new event. Looks to me as if they are taking it seriously to be a good event. They are also having a Indianapolis Bowtie Nationals too!
This group has been with Tri-Five Nats (not affiliated anymore), F-Body Nats, C10 Nats

Also from the Bristol site......if you want to take your Monte down the track Friday night. NHRA rules below
The Bowtie Nationals Friday Night Fun Runs are free for all registered showparticipants to take their vehicle down the track.
Just thought I'd pass along the safety rules for anyone wanting to take a run Friday nite
Street Cars
The following items are required for a vehicle and driver to pass tech: Good tires, a solid battery hold down, radiator overflow reservoir, functioning neutral-safety switch, seat belts, and a valid state driver's license or NHRA competition license for all participants. The driver must wear long pants, closed toe shoes, and a shirt.
13.99 seconds (8.59 1/8th)
Drive Line Loop with slicks
Approved helmet (Full face in open cars), see below
SFI 3.2A/1 Jacket in vehicles equipped with non-OEM nitrous oxide, turbochargers or superchargers(edited) I think this post means I'm interested 🤣

Yea I wondered about the underside too, especially since its plated from Maine. The module looks like it has enough slack (service loop) it could be easily relocated. I'd have to ditch the cup holders tho 🤣

You guys can laugh all you want about “ hoarding “ but it sure comes in handy sometimes.
I don't think garage, basement, or spare bedroom stash's constitute hoarding, at least in my book 🤣
I once blew a radiator on the turnpike, on a Sunday, on a holiday weekend. Called my buddy who was a moustang freak and asked if he had one, he asked auto or manual. I said manual, I hear clank, rustle, and he says yea got one. I go glad I caught ya in the garage, he laughed and said I'm in the living room 🤣

Mark,
Judging by his email address I assume it is not his car. What it looks like is he either owns or is employed by a used/classic car sales company.

Now it makes sense, didn't put 2 n 2 together from the chat post 🙃

Just in case anybody is considering, get the document with the "stock" measurements. There have been a few threads with frames that were tweaked over the years.

X2 what everyone else has said.............check to see if HF has their trans jack on sale . If you can get a friend to help its not a bad thing. Check the trans mount condition, if original might not be a bad idea to replace. Also the rubber grommets for the crossmember may hang in the frame, I thought mine were missing so ordered new. Its not fun but can be done
