118k update
Haven't been on here in quite a bit. Anyway, changed my oil today, thought I'd take a short video of how the Monte is looking/sounding. She's pretty much only driven in the snow right now.
This is probably the first image on this site with my color matched bowtie, I've had the same black one since 2007 until a tumbleweed took it out about a month ago. Found a used one laying around the shop that was all scratched up so I had the painter do it up body color for me.
And the quick video. I love the sound of this car at idle.

3.9l, FloPro mufflers and resonator delete is all that's done exhaust wise. I'm in Casper now. Used to be Laramie while I was in school.
It's doing good, I've replaced the crappy aftermarket stereo with a new Kenwood and I'm waiting on new speakers. I painted it this last Spring and put some Koni yellows in to replace the shot factory stuts/shocks. Here's my latest photo of it with new tires and sanded down wheels plus a photo of the trunk or treat we did for Halloween. I painted it the factory color (Diamond Blue Metallic) and tossed in a touch of purple pearl.
Oh, and it's at 234k miles now.

Here's the closest close-up I could find, it's one of the roof rails/drip rail.
Oh, and my favorite shot of the car since painting it. This was during a British car cruise that two of us joined with our German Porsches.
I made a project thread over on Rennlist while I was painting it. I think you should be able to see the whole thing without needing to join, if you're interested. My paint project (lots of photos) - Rennlist Discussion Forums
