Did you try looking a little farther west like NY and PA? You may be able to find one in a little better shape since it will be farther away from the sea climate and the heavier NE snow storms.

Hey you know what? Thats actually a good idea. My dad brought that up to me. He actually saw one on ebay that didnt sell but he took down the information on. I'm not sure if he didnt like it or not because I havent heard back from him yet. If he hasnt called me I'm guessing it wasnt worth it. If things keep looking like this I'm going to have to look a little further west. NY, PA, maryland, new jersey. Nothing wrong with a little road trip if it's really worth it. If I find something can I post it here for people to look at for some opinions?
I'm gonna die when I finally find my 4th gen. I can only imagine the feeling of driving that bad boy home. I'm getting too excited thinking about it haha. Hopefully all is well.

check out this Monte...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chevr...fCarsQ5fTrucks
It's a very nice Monte, although it's in Ohio, it's a great start! It's on my watch list and I would really like to have it......
EDIT: minus the door vent things..

Lol I am no fan of those door vents. I dont think that they look good on these cars. Any respectable cars at least. Thank you for the suggestion but Ohio is a bit of a trip since I live in Massachusetts. If it was a 86-88 ss then maybe haha But a 4th gen is deffinately my main priority right now. Thanks again for the suggestion though, not what I was looking for.

So I believe I may have experienced the biggest slap in the face today. I came out of the supermarket and saw a black 86-88 Monte ss on a flat bed and I thought it was a dream. I saw the man come out of the truck and I jokingly said Hey how much are you selling that for? He goes "Selling? I just picked this baby up for 3 grand over in westborough". >.< How come I have never seen this car for sale anywhere? I go to shop in that town, my gym is in that town yet I've never seen it. On top of craigslist, ebaymotors, I'm gonna start skipping the highway and taking back roads to see if I can get lucky and spot me one. I just wanted to share this with everyone because I couldnt handle that slap alone lol
