Default Good Buy To The White Monte

Well long story short, My little brother was looking for a new vehicle. Having a hard time getting financing since it is his first loan. Me being the big brother co-signed for him to buy my 2000 SS. I am at the moment driving his 97 Cougar for a work car. I am not out of the monte game just yet though. I just bought my new toy last Tue night. I have only 7600 in it and have to get her back alive again. I am getting all the labor for free so it is just parts I have to add. So....adding it all up, I will be in my new 06 SS for under 10,000. Here are some pics of it. Will have more as progress goes.

Hi Chris,
WoW, that's sounds like a Super/Super Deal, especially getting the labor for free : )
Will you be my BIG Brother & let me drive it ?
Are you going to rebuild it stock, or are you going to do some
mod's to it. The hit doesn't look that bad.
How difficult is it, getting replacement parts.
Can you start it as it is now ?
Thanks for sharing your pic's, your dreams. I just bet
you can wait to get it on the road....WoW.
TrickRac'in 4-$ure.
I'm really happy for you.
Keep the member's updated on your progress.
Good Luck on the Rebuild.

I guess that some people can't just handle the Power
of a Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
V-8

we got the parts for it already. Also got a 06 that was creamed really bad in the back end. Now it is just a case of switchin it all. I think I am just gonna go stock for now unless I find some really cool stuff to put in it. I know an intake for sure but other than that I will see what I find.

Hi Chris,

of your AwesomeWhite SS : ). Will you let him drive the 06 SS ?

that damage isn't too bad either, i've seen worse, i've fixed worse, most of the stuff is just bolt on and easy to fix, but there's going to be frame straighening needed on that, i would say about 20hrs worth probably

yeah, she goes on the frame machine tomorrow afternoon. Then we will measure it up and see. It isn't much though. Mostly looks like sheet and some pulling on the core support. I am on the hunt for new bags and control modual as we speak......
