You would probably have to purchase them and try and see how they fit. Most of the big block guys run the Hooker 2455 headers and have the least fitment issues with them. 
 

 

Thanks for the response, both are cracked. I talked to Leo he has everything I needed.

Anyone know where I can find replacement rear shock towers?

anyone running these? Looks like a good option if they truly fit.

You might want to try Jared Richey..... 

He's had lots of parts and pieces, and he's just over in South Carolina.

Thank you

I’m looking for some blue interior parts: ashtray, kick panels, and bottom rear window trim corners. Any suggestions seems like I’m only finding Black. 

Anyone 2 toned their interior with blue and black? I thought about leaving the dash pad, headliner and carpet dark blue and replacing the dash, kick panels, door panels and seats with black.

Tracy, that is a beautiful Monte.  It looks like you got the best year in the First Gen grouping and with Blue being the best color you have chosen wisely on color.  I could be wrong but that looks like Astro Blue.

It’s more of a thud like something bottoming out. I’m going to check everything

 Congratulations!!, sweet looking Monte!!

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this question. I have a 70, if I go over a hard bump I hear a thud. It’s almost like something is bottoming out in the rear. Increasing air in the shocks doesn’t change anything, any suggestions? 
 

could it be that it needs Body Bushings replaced? How hard are they to replace?

Thanks Rob

You are correct it’s (25) Astro Blue, it’s my favorite color!

I’ve been looking for a first gen for a while, finally pulled the trigger about a month ago on a 70 350/350. It needs a few little things, I’ve already drove it around 1500 miles and have enjoyed all of them. 

I also picked up a 1970 LS6 454 that I have at an engine builder going through one I get all of the brackets and figure out which Headers, carb etc.. that I’m going to use.
