You've been working on stacking A bodies on top of eachother?

Wis I could get around to working on the only domestic I have, but this damn wagon keeps winning the cash flow fight...

Starting to come together though, it looks like.

Yeah I guess I should have put the last one first huh! This past weekend was the first time in 5 years the car has come out of the garage in one piece. Next I'll weld in the new trunk and floor pans and then refinish the inner fenders, then hang the new quarter panels, new front fenders, replace the dash, windsheild, order new interior pieces and then get it back on the road.... should be out this time next year.

Cool. You are going to need to prod me to get my Monte Carlo back on the road.

Oh, gawd, does it need work...

MuddyREX · 08-23-2005, 05:32 PM

Don't look now, but someone stole your front end.

The car looks like it coming a long good. Hows the TA coming too.

Almost looks like that real fast photography:

Here's Mr. X washing his car, there goes the punks that steal his front end, and just as he's about to turn and notice it gone, we pause here to look at the serene picture of man and car....

The Monte is an 85, so this year I can oficially get classic tags for it. Nothing special, but it was in Ash's family for a while so I figured I would keep it around when they were selling it.

The goal is a supercharged LS2/4L60 combo. But we'll see.

79Poncho · 08-24-2005, 08:21 AM

Thanks for the replies, I'll keep you all posted on the resurrection of the 442. As for the TA its running pretty well, I need to do a little tuning this weekend and change the plugs and I should be back in the 13s when I hit Cecil up next Wed.

poolmike · 08-24-2005, 09:34 PM

Nice 442! Thats always fun pulling the body off the frame. Did you upgrade suspension parts or use stock stuff?

79Poncho · 08-25-2005, 10:12 AM

Mostly stock, slight upgrades... all polyurethane bushings and bumpers, KYB shocks, HD 66' GTO springs front and rear, all new mounts... big sway bars...
