My wife was able to cancel ours online. She used the link from the confirmation email. Used the “to edit” link and it allowed her to cancel.

Thanks for the update. I appreciate all of you. I was already going to Carlisle so hopefully I’ll see some of you there. Ron, sorry all of your hard work was for naught brother. Hopefully we’ll meet at next year’s get together.

So I see that a tornado hit Somerset last night, is that going to affect the meet? My prayers go out to all affected 🙏🏻

Thanks, later last night I got the idea to dig out another column I have and plugged it in. I had both brake lights. Definitely the turn signal switch! I appreciate you taking the time to respond.

I'm in need of a bit of knowledge! My 72 doesn't have the brake light or hazard flashers on the rear passenger side. I'm not getting any power on the green wire and I've traced it back to the connection at the fuse box. The lights and turn signals work. I'm thinking it may be the turn signal switch in the column. Anyone have any advice before I tear into it? Am I missing anything? I'm typically pretty good with wiring but this has me scratching my head a little.

Yes sir! Thanks!

I’m traveling today, I’ll look tonight.

I guess im getting old. I can’t find it Ron, do you have a link or some other info to help my stupid butt get there? Sorry🫤

I got ya. I hadn’t seen the post where classic bought the arts place. Thanks

I don't see monte carlo or chevelle offered on their site. Am I missing it?

Thanks for the info

That’s a solid bonus! Shipping is crazy.

So what aftermarket place is your "go to" when looking for a body or interior part? I've been getting a few things and I've had the best luck with Dixie Restoration Depot. Their customer service has been great and they've given me a real timeline on the parts that have been backordered. The worst place has been OPGI. Their customer service is terrible and they didn't even have an ETA on the parts that backordered. I ended up cancelling them. What's been your experience? What's your "go to" place?

Happy Birthday! Thanks for doing all the heavy lifting. I’m really looking forward to it.

Love this! I'm getting excited to drive down!

Thanks guys, I appreciate it!

Guys, what’s the actual differences between 1970 and 1971-72 front fenders? I used to know but it’s been about 10-12 years since restoring my last Monte and I can’t quite remember. I’m thinking it has to do with the way the headlight bezel mounts, but it’s all a bit foggy. Getting old sucks! 😆

Yeah, I don't know why I typed Classic instead of Custom. Getting old I guess!

Guys, are the wide belt moldings two piece? My new Monte has them on the rear windows but not the doors. I'm trying to figure out what I need. I've own several 1st gen monte's but this is the first one I've had with the wide stuff. I don't know anything about them. My new car is a '72 Classic, Thanks

I'm not seeing how I can move it far enough. I'll have to look at it again tomorrow when I'm in a little better mood.

I put headers on my 454 and put the oil dip stick tube back on and noticed that there's not way to get the spark plug in. What have you guys done to get around this?

The fender wells fit really well. I found out the the support isn't there on the steel ones. That's why it wouldn't fit. So I'm all good to go.

I replaced my broken plastic inner fenders with steel ones and now I can't get my battery tray and support to line back up. I can line up the tray where it needs to be, but the support doesn't even come close to lining up. If I loosely bolt the support on I can get it in the right place, but the tray won't line up. What am I doing wrong?
