Thanks Doug

Doug, Did you get your clamps from Pace Car Jeff as well? Happy with them? I'm about ready to order from him. Thanks, Dale

I would guess your advance is malfunctioning. Keep us posted on what you find though. Dale

I used D&A Old School Automotive for my SS. I did it I think 3 years ago. They were MUCH cheaper than Gardner. I can't say about concourse quality because I don't know concourse. But I can say my head pipes were original GM and the D&A head pipes were spot on. Every bend, bulge, and dent. The system was a breeze to install. I may have taken some picks of them laying side by side. I'll see if I can find them. Dale http://daoldschoolautomotive.com/montecarlo.html

Glad you got it figured out.

In the upper right corner click the menu button. That should open a dialogue box and you can select English at the top. Dale

Only Don knows if he did a Monte may he rest in peace and I rather doubt anyone had clones on their brain in 1991. It was pretty clearly an old car.

I actually saw a Yenko Monte Carlo back in the early 90's. It was trashed, no motor or front end but had the YS serial number on the door jam and Yenko headrest covers. Seems like it was a 70 model.

No thanks, I'll just put a new spout on. It is original to my SS so I want to keep it.

LOL Yep sure was lucky. If I had kept going it would have died on the interstate :-)

Headed out about noon to go to a show and a cruise-in later in the evening. Got about 10 miles from the house and realized I had forgotten a jacket. So I turn around and head back. I pull up in front of the garage and turn her off to run inside. As I walk around the front of the car a loud BANG and antifreeze gushing everwhere!! Bummer :-( The radiator cap had come loose and hit the bottom of the hood. The metal lip around the top of the radiator opening had cracked and come apart. Looking at it, it appears to have been cracked for a while and finally let go. I guess I'll be pulling the radiator tomorrow.

Yep

I had a small block chevy do this one time. For whatever reason it had flooded very badly and I had lots of gas in the oil. I had to drain the oil and replace it. I asked an old-timer about and he said to rap the side of the carb the float had stuck. I have no idea but I had the car for many years and it never did it again. Dale

DING DING DING Give that man a teddy bear!! It is Kansas, God's Country!! I am in eastern Kansas about 1/2 between Kansas City and Wichita. It is good whitetail and turkey country. I am fortunate to have my own little slice of hunting heaven, 130 acres. :-) The Monte is Classic Copper. I just am not a good photographer LOL. I am prejudiced of course but I think it is a fantastic car!! I had a 71 402 TH400 back in high school same color inside and out. When I saw this SS about 3 years ago I just had to buy it. Oh the memories!!

TEST TEST TEST

Finally got some good weather here. I had noticed the old girl was a little nervous driving down the road. Checked the front wheel bearings and sure enough needed repacked. Got them done this evening. Gonna take her for a cruise tomorrow!

WOW! NICE!! Looks like you have a good helper there too. Best of luck with it!

I am thinking of restoring the grille in my 71 SS. The chrome was restored by a previous owner so it is in good shape. I did a search and see that the uprights and the groove running around the periphery of the grille should be black. I'm guessing satin black similar to the other trim on the car? Does the black in the groove run just in the very bottom of the or up the sides too? What color silver should the slats be? Thanks and Merry Christmas!! Dale

Once you've had a chance to us it could you let me know how you like the plug and chug, been thinking about getting one. Thanks, Dale

Yeah, I have photobucket.

I have not had any luck trying to post pics on this site.

Took my 71 SS to my first car show yesterday, got a first place award, kinda nice . Small local show. The only Monte at the show.
