sbarnette Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The radiator has been leaking around the filler neck so I took it to a radiator repair shop for a cleaning and repair. Finished putting it back in the car today. It was raining here all day, but it stopped and the sun came out just as I was finishing up. I could not resist taking her for a short drive. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve G Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Finished up most of the front suspension and cleaned up the transmission and installed the motor. Forgot mid installation I didnt get motor mounts and I installed the headers to see what will and won’t work. Very productive day. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve G Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Day after Christmas, started test fitting parts, mix matching parts to make it all work. Trying to keep the motor looking stock, or at least close to it. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searsman Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Wow! Found this great deal on a new clock for my Monte... at the suggestion of one of my well know club members.. so,, I looked it up and was this great price ! Wasn’t eBay , ordered it cause it really looked good .. ordered it on April 1st.. received it today.. strange , it didn’t look that big on line... can’t seem to get it to fit in the dash 😩.. guess I could just hang it on the wall in the garage till I figure it out where it goes .... thanks Rob 🤣... 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
