DAVEG5150 Posted August 9, 2022 Posted August 9, 2022 (edited) Hello group, I recently purchased a 1970 Monte Carlo in July with a 350 4bbl, TH350 trans, 12 bolt rear with bucket seats and horse shoe shifter. I’ve been doing a little work on it valve covers and air cleaner and just had the carburetor reworked. So hopefully I’ll have it up and running soon I’m a little excited and impatient at the same time. Looking forward to the wealth of knowledge in the group and the enthusiasm for the 70-72 Monte Carlo!!!! Edited August 9, 2022 by DAVEG5150 Spelling 6 Quote

Glen Posted August 9, 2022 Posted August 9, 2022 Welcome, Dave!! Great looking ‘70… for the first couple seconds/pictures I thought there was another Shadow Gray in the ranks. Either way, beautiful car you have there. And am I to assume that’s a Van Halen reference in your screen name? 1 Quote

And am I to assume that’s a Van Halen reference in your screen name? Yes sir you are correct!!! Van Halen is my favorite band I like both DLR and Sammy parts of the group but I lean towards the Sammy side. As for the car thank you, I can’t wait to get her to where I want her. Strictly OE. 2 Quote

And generally mundane s%#t? Oh yeah, that’s where I’m a Viking 😂🤣 Quote
