Im right down rt 51 from you in the Mon Valley! Ive always loved the look of the Gen 5 Montes, really love the rear with the quad exhaust tips. I wanted another one ever since i got rid of my Lumina...now i got it.

Maybe when the weather gets nice all us Pittsburgh crew can get together somewhere with our rides!

Looks good from what I can see. You got the factory spoiler on too, plus 1 there. Just a little tip, go get yourself some dielectric grease and pull the side markers out on the bumper covers and put some in each light socket.My socketsare all corroded because those markers love to hold water.

Thanks mrl, I already plan on doing this because i did that to my 98 LTZ. Infact I think i still have that tube of dielectric grease around here somewhere! They definately have some water in them and that will be one of my first projects to dry them out and all. I figure if they are really bad ill just put new sockets on them.

Thanks on the spoiler too! It was a must, along with the machine faced wheels and the leather and sunroof. Torch red isnt my first choice but its in really great shape so i dont mind. Once I get it home ill post up a ton of pics....its very clean inside!

I think you will like the torch red. With a fresh wash and wax and a little black magic on the tires, the color really pops and shines. It is really good for hiding water spots and scratches too.

And yes, pics are a must.

Yeah I cant wait to give it a good detail job.

Hey mrl, I was checkin out your cardomain page, nice Earnhardt plate frame! I will be putting my #3 sticker on the lower left corner of my rear window, just like on my LTZ and currently on my Sierra,as soon as I clean the car up.

Thanks man. Both were courtesy of the PO. He was a big earnhardt fan. He even had a 2004 dale jr monte in his garage with 4000 miles on it.
