cny first gen 71

I saw this and immediately thought of Dennis I couldn't help myself 😅🤣😅🤣

I have a 72 hood on my 71 but I don't have the hood spear on mine.

If your referring to a 4 post drive on style lift you are limited as to what you can do on that type of lift. I prefer a twin post side by side lift for most types of work. I have used both over the years, actually earlier I had to use a front to rear hydraulic lift those were fun too NOT 😅 just make sure you have the correct floor thickness under and the proper side space and ceiling clearance. And if corse always be safe when using a lift especially if there's no one else around to get you out of a jam if you ever get in one.

You guys crack me up, just another reason to love this club/family

Dogs are a part of the family for sure, I lost my last one a few years ago and was a very hard loss I don't think I'll be getting another one because it is a bit restricting and wouldn't want to leave it alone that much. I do get to see my 2 grand puppy's though and Lisa has a dog that goes camping with us so that's enough. And there's nothing wrong with them hot dogs that's the way they are supposed to be cooked!

Get well soon

2 or 3 winters driving in Syracuse they look like that 😅

Welcome aboard, looks like a pretty nice starter now you gotta make it yours. Lots of great minds here any questions you have please don't be afraid to ask. We love to help someone will know the answer.

My brother in law bought a beautiful 68 impala when he came home from service in late 72 or early 73 unfortunately he totaled that then bought a 70 monte that's when I got bite by the bug. I couldn't afford it when he sold it but quite a few years later I got one 😁

In 75 they were daily drivers and beaters unfortunately. Back then you could buy a 10 year old car for a few hundred bucks

Tom Carter took home a little hardware today, not sure exactly what he got it for but he did.

I have been too but just thought it was my new internet company I switched last month.

Bite your tongue, way to early to be talking about that crap!

Another local show today, beautiful weather great turnout. 5 first gens that I saw all 5 are club members 😀 Bob and I parked together with his father in law. I got a couple pictures probably between 500 and 600 cars.

Beautiful car, fantastic job you did on it. Welcome to the club.

I've got a front bumper filler panel for a 64 chevelle if anyone needs one.

Looks great, that's a lot of work. I did mine 25 or 30 years ago don't want to do it again.

RIP Charlie.

Welcome aboard

Went to local cruise in tonight I was only first gen there but I did meet a guy that knows a guy that bought an brand new 70 monte 454 4 speed 😅

Welcome to the site, it appears to to be a 72. Did you get any other parts with it? Looks like it'll need some more. Good luck with it, someone here will be able to answer any questions you have.

Yes there is a little village called wampsville and they have one of the areas larger car shows of the year, today was it and weather was beautiful. I'd estimate about 500 to 600 cars of that I saw 5 first gens, 3 members and one guy I talked to and gave him a card the other I've talked to before. I didn't walk around a lot but I did get around and saw and met some new people too. I was parked with 3 other montes mine a couple 76s and an 85. Here's a few pictures. And one for Rob 😀

Hopefully weather cooperates today looks like a bit of rain there been raining here all morning coming your way 😴

Very nice, have fun. I see Syracuse nationals has a booth there too.

They are definitely brighter. But just remember to take your sun glasses off . I was coming back from a show one time and was just dusk so turned headlights on as it got a bit darker i was having trouble seeing my buddy was with me he said I can see fine. Got all the way home and then realized I still had my sunglasses on, he didn't tell me either 😅 so now I always make sure. I've had them in there at least 12 years and haven't had to change them yet. Probably only used them a dozen times since I got the car 18 years ago.
