    Vintage Car Radio...... I think they might have what you're looking for.

    Who doesn't like to hear Phil belting out some "Thunder and Lightning" ??? Yeah, you'll need to add some leads to power multiple speakers. But seeing as you have the carpet out, that'll be easy enough to do. There was a place that builds updated "retro " stereos..... I'll look into it and get back to you.

    WOW !! You guys are serious resto buffs.

    Check out "Mega Parts Post"..... Jared's got tons of stuff, and he's probably not that far from you.

    Fat fingers can be an issue too.... Those greasy sausages don't always grip the bottom edge.

    They cleaned out my planters last spring as well. Put the bird feeder up in a tree where they, and the magpies, can't get at it as easily. Just wanted to give the little birds a chance.

    Squirrels took it......

    A good tune up never hurts. And you could check the jetting on your carb..... It may be too high, depending on where it used to live.

    Just on the rear. i believe that using them on the front, depending on which offset you use, might rub against the steering linkage in sharp turning. As for tire contact, the age of your front suspension will determine how restricted your turning will be. But odds are pretty good that there will be some contact with that profile of tire.

    Out here in the open wilds of western Canada, it can be a few miles between gas stations..... The days of having one every 50 miles are gone, even though some of the buildings are still standing. The things you took for granted as a kid.... lol.

    The glass doesn't look cracked, bet it's original.

    I had a similar issue with the 3.8 L in my '86 Buick..... Wound up using a hose that was originally designed for a dodge mini van. It worked, but was still a pain to install.

    As long as you have the good ones.... Those cheap knock offs don't hold very long and strip the threads way too easily.

    Parts Place or most of the restoration places usually have them.

    I saw something in a Micheal's store a while back. It's more like a "mactac" (if anybody remembers that stuff) that you buy in sheets. You'd have to trim it to fit, but it might work ??

    That generation looks like the Lumina series..... Hopefully that's as close to a four door as they ever get.

    But I bet she's still fun to drive.

    Found a couple more Montestars...... French Connection and Used Cars.

    Who's racing in the rain anyways ??? lol

    Funny part about the "shampoo bottle" is that it actually has a mounting basket fastened to the radiator support. Kind of like a water bottle holder for a bike. The previous owner thought that one out. lol

    Hi Aaron and Dennis, No, I don't have much for documentation.... And both the engine and trans aren't original. Once the weather co operates, I'll take a look for the V.I.N. on the firewall. With all the mismatched bits, I believe that Montelishi has been pieced together by her previous owner.
  22. Scott S.
    So the "shampoo bottle" tank isn't factory ??? lol

    Hey Aaron, here's a photo of my '70 Monte's body tag. We had a discussion some time ago re guarding the "Baltimore" body tag and "Flint" V.I.N. on the dash panel. I've looked at both, and they both appear to be original. The fasteners don't look like they've been changed. Any ideas on how this could have happened ?
  24. Scott S.
    Yeah, a "type 4" is for those who love the smell of burning rubber.... Pretty much everything 3.9 and higher.

    When I swapped in the 200r4, my mileage went from about 14 mpg to 19 mpg. (imp. gal)
