The AMK kits are very complete. I used the interior kit and it covered everything I needed, highly recommended.

I went to this company for my speakers. I hope it helps Classic Car Speakers (turnswitch.com)

Jim, you beat me to it. I was looking for a picture too. That should help

Dennis this is a link to the website I told him I would post it on the forum. Marketplace - locally Made Koozie Holders | Facebook

I had this Coozie holder made for my garage/ workshop. I found the guy on facebook here in Illinois. I asked him if he could stamp out the Monte crest. He said it was to complicated but he said he could do the Monte script. It was going to have it powerboat black to match my car but I thought the red stood better. If anyone is interested I can get his info. He also has other designs.

Do you have the compressor? I may have one to sell that might need a rebuild. I haven't had the time to check it out

Are the factory wire harnesses still in the car? The yellow black and grey are a factory radio connector

I don't know that there are parts available for a rebuild. What do you have and what do you need?

Great looking Montes

Then shrink wrap or bubble wrap the motor until its back in

It's looking good, just in time for spring

I don't need any, but I might pick up a set or two just to have in stock. We have a locator from a high school buddy that works at a dealer if your looking for something

Good for you Dennis. I did run the number and there are dealers that still have inventory.

Thanks Joe, I will have to run the number on the gm locator and see if I can buy a few sets.

In Chicago a guy waited for over 20 hours at a Tesla charging station and then realized it wasn't charging. The EV's are a nice idea but not for me. The ford dealer nearby has a bunch on the lot and nobody wants them. Cadillac is going to be all EV soon, that will be the end of Cadillac.

Nice work, you learn new things here all the time. PS I believe these springs are still available from Chevrolet

John, I remember years ago I had a 71 Corvette with a 350 4 speed that had a high idle. I worked at a Chevrolet dealership in the parts room when I was just starting out. One of our mechanics told me that there was a carbon build up under the intake manifold. I first thought he was pulling my leg because I was young and I won't say stupid, but he insisted. So, I took the intake off the car one weekend, drilled out the plate under the intake and sure enough there was a big chuck of carbon. I pulled the carbon out, screwed the plate back on and put it back together and the car ran perfect. I'm not sure that's what you have going on but maybe someone else can confirm. I hope you figure it out.

Did you pull the distributor? Did you check the timing?

Congratulations, there are only so many of these cars left in the world. It took me along time to find mine and at the time I thought I over paid but in reality I don't ever plan to sell it so I don't care either. Enjoy the ride and post some pictures.

Great idea, I'm going to give it a try.

Welcome to the club and Happy New Year! Where does a guy find a 4 speed. I would like to find one myself. Enjoy the new Monte and post some pictures.

I wonder how that loosened up. I'm glad you figured it out. Happy New Year

Merry Christmas everyone. Have a happy and safe holiday

I don't know why they can't just leave things alone. You finally learn how to use windows and then they change it on you. Thanks for the info

Thanks Dennis, now I found what you ordered. The link is what they show if you search console burlwood. I searched the description on you invoice and the dark trim comes up. I'll order some. Thanks https://collectorsautosupply.com/search-results/?query=Console-burlwood
