My name is Rob I try to forget my age I have a 2007 ls Monte I am new to automotive challenges just started working on broken cars personally not professionally

 

Hello and welcome..

 

thanks... I like how your rims show off the brakes, car looks very clean, love dark windows but I got tired of getting pulled over for it so with my most recent Monte I did not put any tint on (although I would like to) Always nice to have a garage! Is that a custom paint job?

 

Welcome to the forums Rob

 

thanks Jeff how did you ever make your monte RWD??? That must have taken some time. I always wanted to make mine standard trans

 

Welcome to the Monte Carlo Forum!

 

Here's a link about the build https://montecarloforum.com/forum/ge...l-drive-59109/ it's taken a lot of time, money and paicence plus some help from the members on this site . I've seen it posted on how people want a manual transmission which would be a awesome upgrade but unless your using a Pontiac engine I don't recall Buick ever putting a manual behind a 3800 which means you would need a custom flywheel. Maybe your the guy to get it done.

 

@ Jeff thanks for the info very unique stuff I don't have the $$$ for mods right now just trying to keep it running But always interested in custom work my monte is 2007 ls with custom painted grey stripe 3500 motor very efficient and still gets down the road my ideal setup would be 2007 SS RWD w/manual trans

 

@drivernumber3 thanks for the welcome what is your daily driver?

 

Your expecting me to say a 3 car. The 3 cars you see in these photo's belonged to some serious fans. I could not do that! The impact of me getting out of those cars or driving them, & standing by them creates quite the freak show. On some occasions it has brought on tears. I don't like to see folks cry, so I try to cheer them up some, just as D.E. could have done. That appearance is all natural with or without the mustache, or the shades too. I didn't look like D.E. he looked like me as I was 150 days older than he. ha,ha!
Actually for the last 10 years I drove new rentals mostly from Avis. My favorite is the Chevy Cruze.
Then I retired last September. So now we have and Equinox, a Torrent, and my Monte Carlo that I have been keeping, it was my daily driver years ago, now I try to fix a few things and do some upgrades. Fun stuff.
