Today I MISSED THE HELL outta my Monte! Why? Because I'm in KY and he's in SC, hanging out and looking pretty...

Put on lower body moldings/rocker panels, wheel moldings, trunk lock/bezel, rear-bumper, hood-cowl seal, marker lights! Hitting it at 0900 in the AM, he is almost finished :-)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doug, I would try using a stronger solvent/cleaner to ensure the surface is oil free before applying the decal. Also, be sure to give the decal time to sit before inducing engine heat. Last recommendation is to call a good restoration shop and ask them what they are using homie Jamie

Was poking around the net and found this site: http://www.nospartsfromthepast.com/ seems like they have a ton of stuff for the first gen mc

No prob guys, glad you all enjoy the site as much as i do; the brochures are way cool!

If you've never viewed the it and you desire more info on original paint; cross-references, close up paint chips, alias names for b.o.p. and caddy (other auto makers too), photo examples etc. http://paintref.com/paintref/index.shtml jamie

Thanks for all the info guys. GM did some "various" things to vehicles that just show up every now and then; i met an older woman once that was driving a first gen MC with a half-vinyl top. she said the car was purchased by her father new, with that top! only one i've seen like that...

Thanks Canuck! Any leads on where I can get an after-market one?

I'm racking my brain and trying to figure out whats the deal with the chrome trim that runs along the quarter panel and doors (sometimes all the way to the front), horizontally above the wheel openings. I like it, and its the one deviation from my MC's original state I want to add; what is it called?! Was it a GM factory/ dealrship add-on? Thanks.
