This was taken in about 2000 when the paint still looked good. I had the body redone and repainted in 1993. Its painted the factory Fathom Blue. Unfortunately the clearcoat is coming off and it doesn't look that good anymore. It has another paint job in its future.

Is that a Busch Car, becuase it looks like it has a bush growing through the fender!!! LOL!

That is a nice looking car right there, thank you for sharing it with us. There is not a better joy in my book than driving a car you've restored.

 

looks great, i like the look from the side alot!

 

dude, it is about time you posted a pic of it

 

looks good. really like that color blue

 

...Thanks `Wayne for posting/sharing your 1st Gen Monte Carlo.
Hope when you repaint that you keep the same color : )
Keep us updated, and post more pic's when you can...
Good Luck!

 

Thanks guys. It will get painted the same color. It currently has white racing stripes kind of like the Chevelles had and I don't know if I will keep them or not.

Ooooooo! That is one beautiful color! Sharp looking car!

 

Very nice! It makes me sad cause I think about the black 72 that my Fiance sold to get his 69 L78 Chevelle.

 

You definitely need to get your 70 Monte looking like that pic again. Too bad the paint job didn't hold up.

Any particular reason the paint job didn't hold up?
