Default Loving this car

Hey everyone
Bill here. I'm 59 and live in Pennsylvania. I've been a welder/fitter/metal monger all my working years and have owned a small fab shop. Like to get my hands dirty.
The only hobby that has stuck with me all my years is shooting, hand loading, and guns in general. Now I've this new passion that was came to me unexpectedly. This car found me and I knew, the moment that I saw it, that I would be taking it home.
This is my first Monte Carlo, and is in rarely good condition, having not been driven (obviously) in the salt swamps that are Pennsylvania's winter roads. The garage that I've been intending to build all these years, WILL be built before winter as I intend to PARK this car to carry on the wise decision of the previous owner.
I've lots of questions to ask of the forum members regarding this car and will be posting subsequently.
Seeya,
Bill

My MC is an SS 2007 pure stock with the 5.3 cid engine. 90k fair weather miles.
I've posted some pics in the gallery. I'm not sure what to tell regarding the "trim level?"
