Puc of underhood isnt the best. I was replacing ac compressor

8.5 1/8 mile with 273 gear

1972 midnight bronze. 402 engine ralley steering wheel. Tach dash tilt. Of course th400 12bolt posi. Engine might b modifyed. New everything

Ive had this drivable for 3 years now. They are never done right. I havnt been on here much. Ive been having a blast. This was my highschool car 1987. Everytime i get in it i got a smile on my face.

This fella that doesnt want to join the club was rude to me on facebook for not registering in his timing so I declined. Hope he has fun at his event.

just wondered where yours is as far as location. I was thinking my 72 had one and it was lower on the door jamb.

Murphy. Are u still refurbishing those pcs and any luck on having a extra emblem?

I would still like to do mine. In process of painting my car now. I need emblem for sumone else.

Im looking for a monte carlo emblem for a 72 rear panel. Does anyone remember guy who was polishing and refurbishing rear panel trim pc?

Im getting ready to buy this corvette oil pan for my new bbc im building. My question to anyone using this oil pan is did you use the 4 oil pan rails that can buy bought for this oil pan. I just wondered if I needed these so it wouldnt be as apt to oil leak failure.

cool

That is really good info. I could go either way as i have buckets and a console but was a bench seat car. I dont have a correct steering column yet. i have automatic and isd like a set that would work with floor shift auto or column auto. I guess it would be a good time to decide which way im going

Hey guys. I havnt been on here in forever but ive been working on my car quite a bit. Im building a 454 to replace my 402. I dont want to use any of my 402 parts to keep it complete. Im wondering what oil pan you guys have gone with. Dont want anything fancy but want it to fit and look fairly stock. I like windage tray but $$$$$$$ and i have one from a 454ho im gonna bolt to main bolts. Also im going to finally do headers and dont want trouble. Whats the best decent priced. Engine builder recomended shortys but I was thinking long tube would be better. He said shortys easier to keep from leaking with thick flanges but im sure long tube has good flanges also.

I need a body man at my house now. Im doin ok but there is so much to do and not knowing what to do slows me down. Overdrive helps me but we are some distance apart and he is busy too.

That is a nice color. Same as mine

I removed my gas tank and found my second build sheet.

That would be cool but youll prolly be hunting then. I picked up a 71 ralley nova this weekend. My wifes gonna kill me.

Dan why dont you come up and spray a little clear on mine and we will see what it looks like then u can help me cut off quarters and put on new. Then you can take home your new grill. ha ha

mix it up a little. It would look ok

mines going to body shop in may. My wife graduates nursing school. Im going to barrow money for her graduation present which will be my paint job

was yours a 402/400/12 bolt? I like the midnight bronze with the dark saddle really well. I do like blues also but dont care as much for blue or black interior. My wife loves black cars and weve had black leather. Oh my it gets hot.

I know this isnt the best picture but all I got on computer. It was painted in 87 with cintari. I am currently workin on getting it repainted. I think it will really pop with base clear. It was sharp back in the day when I was in high school. Everybody would call it a black monte but you get closer and in sunlight the dark brown with gold small flakes would come out. I think it is a very unique factory color? I would go with it but I am a factory freak. I put everything back the way it was. Next time ill do no pin stripes.

Great info. I am actually doing mine now. Im rebuilding master cylinder but un decided on new booster. As far as I know mine works fine but when I get done that will prolly change.

My car is a 72 midnight bronze. In high school everybody would say that black monte carlo so I guess it looks black but in sunlight it darkblackish brown with gold metallic. I like it and its origional.
