hey everyone im from canada, i own 2 1979 monte carlos, one for parts and one for fun!!!! just figured i would check some things out cuz ive been having some difficulty finding certain parts for this car

 

Welcoem to the forum. Any particular parts you are looking for?

 

Welcome to the forum. The 79 Montes are a classic. Hold on to the one if you can.

Where are you in Canada? I'm in Windsor, Ontario

 

I own a '78. Welcome to the forum.

 

well the parts i am looking for are new or semi new interior bits and panelling, mine are faded and rotted on both cars, looking for light blue just so i can match the originality of the car. im also interested in the 4 speed manual conversion, i know the 78 and 79 came with them even though the 79 brochure says otherwise, just want to find all the pieces i need for that conversion.


also the rear end, now here i am lost because i get mixed advice, i plan on running a 350 with approx. 325 hp. i dont know if i should dump the money in the factory rear end or go with a complete ford 9 inch conversion for approx. 1600 bucks from quickperformance.com


and TAZ i definately would not part with this car i have original mint condition brochures manuals sales reciepts and an unforgiving passion for this car ill die b4 i get rid of it

 

and i live in kingston

 

Off the top of my head, you can try Year One.

www.yearone.com

On the left side of the homepage, under "Shop Online", click on "53-10 Chevrolet". Then select "78-88 Monte Carlo/El Camino". Once on the 78-88 Monte Carlo page, check out the "Browse Catalogue Links" on the left side of the page.

 

heyy! welcome to the forum!

 

ya ill check out year one but i suspect more parts for an elcamino which is usual

 

Welcome to the site! hope you can find some parts your looking for!
