Definitely the wheels. And no lie, it used to be the paint. Before the bumpers peeled the overall paint condition is what impressed my dad and I enough to buy it.

I would have to say the overall look of the car. Most people around here see them mostly in stock form. I have had a lot of people this summer tell me mine really sticks out even at cruise ins.



probably a tie with the headers actually

I guess it depends on who is looking at the car. At a car show mine is just like Chibi's, almost everyone will walk right on by it, too funny, but they do. It's not like a 68 Camaro or 32 Ford that they have already seen a hundred zillion times, so they are not interested in our Monte's. Nothing to see here, move on...

If a Monte person is looking at it they typically comment on the cars overall great condition, for being 12 years old.

If I was to narrow it down, most comments are about the interior.

I have one more interior mod I'm doing right now, should be done by Wednesday. After that it's small things like aftermarket gas, brake pedals etc.

I think i live in the wrong area to get compliments about the car around town. The style here is pretty much rice and imports, and i'm never able to go to local cruise ins.

I think the best thing about my Monte is Look of the car and the Engine
