cny first gen 71 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I went to cars and coffee this morning was nice, the only Montes there was mine and Bob's but a bunch of nice cars. This evening I went to a cruise in and a guy walked up to my car and told me about a guy he knows that bought a 70 monte brand new 350 with a 3 speed standard with the shifter on the floor. I said I think they were 3 on the tree he said nope came that way from factory. I'm thinking this is another myth. But I had a nice time. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Peters Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 WHAT, you didn't get any info on this possible very rare if at all Monte???? I can see we are going to have to host a "Stalker" Seminar in the club anopy in Carlisle. Yeah, I would be surprised it it is real but we all know there has to be a 4-Speed 72 SS convertible out there someplace because it says so on the internet. rob 6 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cny first gen 71 Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 I tried to get more info but the guy said he hasn't seen the car in 25 years but was sure the guy still owns it if he's still alive that is lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cny first gen 71 Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 So I had another new one today, I had to replace a caliper on my truck so I got it all apart and went to parts store to get new one. While there as I was coming out an employee was walking I. With lunch he said beautiful car you have there, that's my dream car of course I'm all smiles then he asks is that an impala? 😅 I politely said no monte carlo and walked away. So I got back home put truck back together as I was backing out of driveway the neighbors kid came walking over with something in his hand and says do you want this I can't use it any more, it's a snap on composit 3/8 impact wrench. He gave it to me of course I already have one but can't refuse free. Overall a pretty good day 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
