Welcome, soon as I read big block power on your 74', that got my attention.

 

welcome aboard!!

 

A black 2000 SS? Why that's the best

 

Yes, that old car was a dream! After owning that, I'd much rather have a 1st or 2nd gen Monte Carlo over any Cadillacs of that time period. Car rode and handled better than any of them did I thought. Was so comfortable it was like having my living room couch behind the wheel. I miss that car terribly.

 

Now, can anyone direct me to a good writeup on changing the transmission oil and filter? I looked in the owners manual in the glovebox and it didn't give me any explanations about changing the oil. Just how to check the level and add more. I searched the forums but couldn't turn anything up.

welcome! greetings from PA! i once thought about moving to Montana....but land was too expensive. that 74 sure was a beaut. i hope the new one fills the same love you had for the older one :-) i love my03 and shes not even an ss.

 

Thank you!

 

Very cool! Yeah, Montana's a neat place and I don't complain much other than the high property taxes living in town, the quality of some of the roads, and the bitter nasty cold winters. But, if a guy can live through that, it's quite a pleasant state! Summers here are nice, not too hot, not too cold. I feel bad for people in places like Phoenix where it's a 125 degrees all summer, now THAT would be a good place to open a A/C business!

What is your car?
