Well, other then running the battery charger on the '86 and '06 I haven't done a lot to the Montes recently.

Too buzy on my "Project."

In my never-ending efforts to remove swirl marks, I tried Meguiar's Cleaner Wax on the back below the spoiler. I spotted marks there while installing new vinyl on the rear window ("Monte Carlo" in script). It eliminated some of the worst swirling but not all. What have other people here tried on swirl marks and scratches?

Mocking up the engine and making sure all clearances are good. I'll degree the cam tomorrow after I put the heads on.

Replaced my front pads and Changed the oil and filter. I was hoping the pads would have lasted till spring so I could paint the calipers and change the hubs but no. They decided to grind today. At least it dont take too long and was above 30 outside.

Got mine out of semi-storage, aired up the rear tires which are not in the greatest shape. I'm hoping to take her out for a drive this week, the weather's been nice this week (for PA in January).

dumped a 40 oz big gulp all over the front driver/passneger side and all through my gear shift and console..... sych, only kidding.......

I am experiencing some front end issues, (hard thumping while braking) I think I need new calipers all the way around! I also have a slight noise while making small turns in the road side to side while driving, not clunking, I just hear a slight, da da da da noise....
