OMG only 29k. I didn't realize that Amy. You should have that car for years to come. Great job.

I would not have the willpower that you do...I've seen to many super rides that are just for show & never `go (I don't understand that ?)
Monte Carlo's are meant to `be driven (LOL 4-Sure)...
Yours isn't even broke in yet

Do you plan on keeping your Monte forever ? (That's a very long time 4-Sure) > EnJoy your very special Super Super Monte Carlo
Yes Space forever and handed down. Im buying replacement parts all the time and putting it on the shelf for when I cant get them anymore

Thanks Mel for your reply/words. I think that your plan is one of the greatest family heirloom's I've ever seen or read about...Now, that's a plan...(Would you like to adopt an alien ? (LOL)... I know that you love & enjoy your Monte & I hope that those that follow in your footsteps (or burnouts) will love your Monte as much as you...
Thank you for sharing...

My pleasure. I want to give the family the Monte because it was such a part of me.
And I hope that makes them feel better to have a part of me still here with them.
Here's the odometer.

Mel, First off, I love your color combo, it is RARE, Ive only ever seen one other one besides yours. Second, The fact that youre keeping it to be handed down is one of the best ideas I've ever heard, so congrats! Third, and last, what did those cragars run you and how did you find out fitment, I looked on cragar's website and those arent included??
