Welcome! Very nice selection of high performance cars you have there. I bet most of them have dark tinted windows for your AZ climate. LOL!

I DO push parts, but I also do try to be helpful and informative as well.
As for owning an actual "Monte", it's really only a matter of time before I stumble across one and grab it. (I'm pretty picky.)
Welcome to the forum!

Quite an impressive line up of cars you have (and had). Sorry your aerocoupe got stolen. The 1980's Monte Carlo/Grand Prix/Cutlass/Grand National were very popular with thieves. Unfortunately you weren't alone in your loss. Many others felt the same pain.

Any plans for your El Camino? Modern crate motor? Restoration? Resto-mod? Or just all out monster performance?

Thank you! I really have missed the aerocoupe over the years! I am planning a complete 2010 Cadillac CTS-V drivetrain and interior swap. I like the pro-touring look and will probably go in that direction with air-ride suspension and vette Z-06 wheels. I am most excited about the CTS-V interior swap right now. It wont be easy, but I'm putting the dash, center console, seats and parts of the door panels into the car. Basically, I am going to make this elky think it's a CTS-V by removing the original harness and transplanting the Caddy parts (As much as possible, anyways.) The CTS-V I am purchasing is a 2 door with the LSA motor (6.2 liter supercharged.) and the 6l80 six-speed auto with manual shift mode. It should be a real blast to drive and I may even make it my new daily driver if all goes well....
