welcome

I had a '78 Landau myself. I put over 130,000 on it, then sold it to a friend for $200. He put another 30,000 on it before the motor went up.

The brown landau had around 120,00 on it when I bought it off a Kid for $200. Put $1000 in to it to get it running. The cream one I paid $750 for it. Put $700 in to it to get it runing and that is with a major repair to the dog legs. The previous owner said it has a 350 combo. He also said the he put new cluches in the trans. But as all good things go the front pump is gone. So I tryed Lucas and it is holding the trans together for now. I hope it hold until feb or march so I can put a TCI street fighter trans w/a b&m Hole shot 2000 converter in her. Than back to the project car.

OK guy I am back after a 2 year hiadious. My family of Montes has grow and srunk in the time. But I still have The Hell beast and Grocery Grabber.
Since than I bought a 85 SS as a parts car now scrapped, a 83 SC which I gave to my Dad, and a 86 SC that never made it home with me. The previous owner got mad when I did not get it fast enuff and scrapped it. Oh well I guess I drug my feet to long. My Bad.

I now Run the PA Monte Carlo Club along with the Third Generation Monte Carlo Club. I went in with a few others and started MonteKnights.com.

Nice to see some familar names here.

Welcome back Monteman Sean!
I feel like I should be introducing myself to you.
Now that you're back, it shouldn't be long before SpaceRider asks you to vote for Monte of the Month.

Thanks guyz. As soon as I get my halo projector headlitres working correctly I am going after the interior. Buckets seats out of a 90 Dodge shadow, 85 SS center console and dash. That is just the beginning.
