  1. SEM makes real nice interior trim paint. You can get it anywhere that sells automotive paint

    A lot of places sell the console pockets separately from the chrome piece. All the factory had the chrome. My 72 does not have the console pockets factory.
  3. I only had one and it was the broken one I replaced on my 71. Sorry.

    Welcome Kevin. A couple days ago I was cruising around Facebook and seen your pictures. It didn’t take you long to tear in to it. Looks like a pretty nice car to rebuild or restore. You have started the process of getting involved with, in my opinion, the best Monte group. A great bunch of Monte heads here. You have questions, we are all here to help. Good luck on your project and hope to see you on the site often.
  5. Look at the vac line going to the transmission modulator. You may have pulled it off when redoing the lines.
  6. lol. I know. But I try to get a dig in every once in a while.
  7. Sure is a pretty car. To bad I’ll never see it in person. 😆😆😆
  8. I’ll look tomorrow after work. I do believe they can be welded.
  9. lol. I was kidding around but the original thought was banana abuse repayment.
  10. I do agree with the statement but in reality the speed limit back then was 55 mph( correct me if I’m wrong Rob, you were in your late thirties early forties 😆😆). A lot of people cruised the interstates at 55 even if they had an SS car because of the lower gear ratios, my 70 SS has 2:56 gears.
  11. They put them on a bunch of small block cars. They went 70 mph too. But I do believe, to some degree, that’s a legitimate concern.
  12. You …. I hope you understand. You’re NOT getting a thanks from me. That’s one reaction I’ll never use.
  13. All good Willie. I really don’t even feel them anymore.
  14. Option 4. Road trip in the Monte. Take a few weeks and tour the country.
  15. That’s funny Willie. I just took a gas tank to the head today. Pretty decent gouge. lol. So the before pic will have previous marks. I worked on it about 4 hours Saturday and got all the electrical pulled. I also marked everything so the rebuild goes smoothly. We will see what the next trip brings back here.
  16. It’s not what I did to the Monte today. It’s what I’m doing for the Monte’s. lol. In process of picking this up and relocating it to my property ( no 2x4’s involved). 16 x36. Not pretty now but we’ll see how it goes. Don’t know if I will put cars in it yet but it will be great for parts.
  17. Great pics John. But I agree, I don’t think it will be making the trip. lol.
  18. Got ours last night. I think we’re rain free until the middle of next week.
