RE: New from n.y.
thats gonna be sweeeet. nice that you found one thats been stored, every 80s montes ( or 442/ cutlasses for that matter) around these parts is beat, and i have looked at a LOT.
i had an 84 olds custom cruser wagon that i was working on, but sold caus i had too many projects according to my dad, and bought my 97 monte as something to drive. sad, caus the olds was nice, 62,000 on the odometer, parked in a shed since 94, i got it free in exchange for some yardwork, black with a red interior, same saggy headliner as yours, but otherwise mint.
i am very into the 80s domestic cars (except k- cars) and trucks, they were the last of the cool rear wheel drive vehicles, and they are cheep and plentifull. oh, as i was looking for parts for the olds, i found a site you might want to check out if you are interested in sticks-

- this guy converted his 88 to a stick, very good breckdown of costs and parts sources.
good luck with your project!

hey sorry for bad quality bud the photos are huge so i copy and paste it will be very hard tosee the photo, but what you can do to expand the photos of my car is look at the bottom right corner of the page and it should say "100%"...you can change that to zoom in the page. it will slightly ditort the pics, but maybe you can see what the pic is of...thanks and i will continue posting pics.
