Well I checked it out and wow it was like the worst first date ever I mean this thing was a beater. The landau was all dryed out and rusting underneath, The paint was beyond buffing or even washing. The motor had a sticky lifter but very very responsive. I appreciate all the help but I'm a have to cancel my monte membership and stick with my Taurus and mopar for now but maybe I'll get the chance to be a monte owner.....

whats the name of that company in new your? and do they carry cowl hoods? im in jersey so it would be nice to find a company near by that wouldnt trash the hood in shipping like vfn did.

BrandXGarage.com bro.The website doesnt show monte hoods but when I called them and talked to them on the phone the guy said he would check his manufacturers out for me.After just a few minutes he called me back and said that he talked to one and yes they had monte hoods at the time,but they were the cowl hoods.They wouldnt have the flats till the beginning of summer.Since its what ur lookin for man give em a call.
