Thread: 70 Monty kids didn't want

Tweet

I've had this Monty for awhile now,tried giving it to my daughter when she Graduated,(to big and ugly she said,was lime green at the time)then my son turned it down also when he graduated,(he wanted a 63 impala)was sitting in the back of my shop for about 6 years ,mostly all unasembled,so for the last mo or so my son and I are trying to get it ready for a family get together this week end,al we have left is to upholster the pass seat and instal the rocker mouldings, we buffed out every piece of chrome moulding the car, that was a job in it self, NOW my son wants it, let me know what you guys think of the car,is it a keeper now!!

Looks good to me! if you want to give it away, ill come get it! I sure wish my pops was trying to give me stuff like that.

I am on dial up.It was worth the wait.Nice car.

I would definitely say it's a keeper that was one of the nicest looking Monte Carlo's built. I'll trade you my original bought new 88 Monte Carlo SS for it that is if my wife would let me, you have a nice car.

Hey I'm like you, wives are nice but that's a nice car. Just kidding can’t do without good women. Sorry to hear you don't have insurance a lot of people are with you there, let’s hope some of that will change to where everyone can get medical care.

nobody wanted that, they must be braindead. That is one of the most wanted Monty's around.....joe

That is a Real nice car ! I had Two 1970s one 1971 one 1972 . Man they very Like Big Chevelle's . One of the 1970 Monte's had a 400 SB stock . And the 1971 I built up a 350 and had that car running in the 13teens with a 342 gear . I Still want to build one more early Monte .

thats a good looking ride , if the brats didnt want the car before i wouldnt give it to them now!! tough love haha! screw the medical bills drive the snot out of it..

finished mine last night about 10:00. just have to polish the engine and i am good to go. would be glad to help if i lived closer. will post pics when i get home.

Remember to just have a good time, if there is a trophy to go along with the enjoyment that's fine. I don't know what you use to clean the engine but when I took my 40 Chevy coupe with a lot of chrome, and a stainless firewall I used armor. I would spray everything wipe it off then with a clean cotton rag buff the chrome, no wax to have to get out of crevices. Just what I did anyway have a good time.

this is how we clean the inside of our cars, after cleaning the door panel with a soft Grissel brush & vinyl cleaner,I used a can I found of old of vinyl top cleaner/polish, leaves vinyl looking new just like amoral and drys clear so it does not collect dust, and on the plastic stuff again we scub it clean then we apply furniture wax to give it that deep shine,then we sprayed with clear poly. used on furniture,( just don't do this to leather for might stain it )

i use goop hand cleaner on my leather and vinyl. mcquiers engine brite on the engine and brasso polish for the chrome. the goop does not attract dust linke the armor and gives it a deep clean without streaks. i am taking you guys advice and just going to have a good time. .
