[Weather]

Got about 6” earlier this week and expecting 2-4” more on Friday.  What blew my mind is that we will have around 60 degrees next Friday!

[Fuses]

What amps does that jack requires?  Sounds like it requires more amps?

[monte dash for sale]

It looks like a saddle to me in the photo.  Do you know what year it came from?

I got a mixed feeling about painting a dash as I’ve read mixed reviews so I’m trying to get dark saddle one without painting.

[monte dash for sale]

Is that saddle or dark saddle?

[Driver’s door will not open.]

Aaron, it won’t open unless I pry in the middle to unlatch one of internal rods then it will open.  Does that means I need a new door latch?

[New Forum Fields for your Profile.]

Joe, I’m not sure if that’s only item that is waiting for me to complete as it shows that I’m at 50%?  As it shows at top whenever I browse on the site.

[Driver’s door will not open.]

I think I may have same issue whenever I lock the drivers side, it won’t open.  If I have same problem, how do I resolve this?

[Windshield wiper refills]

Advance Auto no longer carries inserts at my local stores.

Joe, it asked me to complete my profile and asked me for my Veteran status as I am not a veteran, seems no option to say not a veteran?

[No rush but looking for floorpan braces]

I used truck and car shop for other parts:

[Flashing signal indicator and dash lights lights]

My first thought was to check grounding but you already checked.  Check this thread out that may help? Gauge problems:

 To the Monte Madness!  Look forward to see pictures of your Monte!

[1971 MC front grill emblem]

I’m curious how they do it as I d like to try on my spare one.

[Occasional starting issues]

I had same issue and per a suggestion from one FGMC member, I replaced the purple wire (from starter to close where wiper is) which resolved my issue.

i found that the original purple wire was brittle that couldn’t stand the heat.

[Wanted: crankcase vent tube]

If I recall correctly that I bought an used one from Cadillac that have same measurements at lesser cost!

I also found this after the frame come back from paint. i have to do something with it. the motor mount doesnt fit right. probbly explaines why it was loose when i tore it apart!😁

You may be right as I haven’t gone that far yet!  Others who went down this road may chime in with their experience.

[Assembly plants?]

If I remember correctly that it was actually in Doraville location (NE of Atlanta) where I grew up in that they didn’t build any Monte there?

[sway bar]

It helps to compare with old parts if you are replacing to see locations where they were.

[distributor woes]

It depends on how you want, I wanted to keep the stock look so I went with Pertronix.
