Default Hello from Ontario Canada

Hi all. Mike here in Collingwood on southern Georgian Bay. I recently purchased my third Monte Carlo, a 1976. I previously owned a 1974 454 , and a 1975 350. The 76 is a 350 4 barrell with floor console and swivels. This car was in storage in a dry garage since the mid 80's after the owner was tragically killed . It has just over 60,000 miles. We got it running with some gas in the carb and had no ticks or even smoke. It's in storage now until spring then will under go a complete mechanical restoration . I also have a 1969 Ford Torino GT convertable and a 1983 Ford F250 superduty with only 17000 original miles. I am hoping for good advice in the future and making new friends from this forum.

Welcome and enjoy the forum!

It looks to be in good shape from what I can see. Any rust? My first Monte was a 74.

Hi Mike,

I'm in Niagara Falls ON, pretty far from Collingwood, but practically neighbours compared to where some other members are.
The 76 looks real nice too, good find.
