Default Fairly new to MCF, got pics...

I'm not brand new to MCF but pretty new. I've been talkin to some people and asked a few questions already. Just thought I'd give everyone the courtesy of seein my car. Don't laugh, I know it's kind of a piece but I love it and got big plans for her. I figured it would be easier to just give you guys the link for my CarDomain page instead of postin pictures on here.... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3379967 Please leave some comments or ideas, thanks.

Hi `Nick, thanks for sharing & I'm not laugh'in @ `All.

I know many that wished they had a Monte Carlo like
yours.

I'm sure with time/money & TLC it will
become what you want it 2 `be.
I like all generation Monte Carlo's.
Good Luck on getting your Monte
the way you want it.

Thanks for viewing, I got a lot of time and money to save up and invest in my Monte. Hopefully it doesn't take too many years to get her done.

Nothing wrong with a $500 Monte. It runs, that's all that matters.

Welcome to the forum man.

Like Ted said. Nothing wrong with a $500 Monte. At least you have your car. Now comes the fun part. learning about it.

Enjoy.

I got a lot more in mind than just replacing the door, full rebuild. L67 + 4t65eHD swap (then eventually rebuild em), rims, tires, paint, body kit, brakes, exhaust, interior, the whole 9 yards as they say. I'm takin little steps though, baby steps. No current job makes it hard to do anything with it

Best of luck.

Don't forget for a lot cheaper you can get the L36 engine and then you can go turbo or even top-swap later on down the line. High compression builds can be fun too.

Just make a list and start checking things off, that's what I've been doing.

I keep forgetting about that, the L36 has different compression. I came across a top-swap kit the other day for $700, not sure if that's a good price or not. I haven't looked into it at all, I don't know if it was for the M90 or not either
