Default Updates on the Monte in the right section :D

Hey guys,

So it's been a long time since I have been on here. I have since moved to a new house, got married, and had a lot of updates to the Monte. A lot are still in progress. Finished: The body work was straightened out, and the car is now Satin black with translucent tribal flames on the hood, and Iwent from a botched up custom exhaust system to side pipes. To be continued on the car: Motor swap from a tired old 350 to a GM Crate 260/310 350, rebuilt th400 with racing shift kit, pro car buckets, and Holley 750 as well as tons of little things that we don't know we need until we really get into it . I spent most of this LOOOOOONG winter hoarding parts for the Monte. I am currently keeping the crate motor stock because I have some possible turbo plans in mind and the compression is at 8.5:1 so its the perfect starting point and the rest of this spring will be sent having the Monte emerge out of the garage a whole new vehicle. I included some pics of the new paint job and side pipes just to give you guys an idea because it sounds SUPER CHEESY but looks AWESOME imho of course!
