Mistie, Sorry for your loss. You should start a separate thread on the forum about this. Post pictures and let us know what options it has (power steering, power windows, bench seat or buckets...etc). If you don't know what to look for, just post pics of as much as you can (overall car, interior, engine bay and inside the trunk. From California we are all hoping it's a rust free car and I'm sure we can give you a good idea what to ask for it and where to post it for sale. We actually have a for sale section right here on the forums. Steve

My life has been a rollercoaster for the last few years and haven't had time or resources to do much with the Monte. But I'm happy to say that I'll be at Carlisle with the Monte and I can't wait!! See you all there!! Steve

Great minds think a like.

That's how I made mine.

Thanks guys. It does seem that they are the same hose for big and small blocks. I did get one from Auto Zone and it's not bad but it's just a bit shorter than the original so although it will work it won't route exactly the same as the original. Steve

So it's been forever since I've been on the boards and wouldn't you know it... I need help. Still have my Monte until they pry it from my cold dead hands and I'm sure I could have posted this in a better place but here it goes. I need the power steering pressure hose for my 71 big block. Ordered one from The Parts Place and they charged me 3x as much for the same exact part I got at my local Auto Zone (part number and made in Mexico).... seriously. Problem is that it's a bit short and the wrong protective sleeve on it. Anyone know where I can get a correct hose on the first try? Thanks for the help. Steve

Not for nothing but the best cooling radiator is a copper one and there are plenty of companies that you can get one from. Give it a google search. My understanding is the only benefit to an aluminum radiator is weight savings..... oh, and they look really cool!! My 2 Cents, Steve

Sorry to hear and see that....... these kids need something that disables their phone when behind the wheel!. Steve

Very nice!! Great find!!! Looks really clean. Steve

Do you have a shield on the starter? Protect it from the heat.... You could start with replacing the leads if that hasn't been mentioned yet but for me it's always been the heat off the headers that kills the starter solenoid. Steve

Oh...and your new rims look great! Steve

I got the longer ARP studs and cut them down...It's worth the time and effort and you can custom cut them to what you need. If a tire comes off it's going to create a lot of damage to everything...ugly. My 2 cents Steve

Great to see another rescue! Great starting point!! The paperwork shows sport mirrors right and left side..... so where is the right side mirror? Someone take it off along the way? Wonder if you can see inside the door if the holes have been filled? Steve

I don't use Facebook although I do have an account but I will be at the meet and I'll spread the word!!! Steve

Thanks for sharing...what great pics!!! Steve
