We REALLY appreciate the update on your JG project car. Looks like you are close. What's left other the the flames and decals?

 

all thats left is the SS High Sport rockers, flames, window tint, steering wheel controls, front plate cover & decal & that should finish it up

 

Wow, looks like that was a lot of work but it turned out great. What happened to the car to where it needed rebuilding?

A guy at work who has since retired bought one of those new. They are nice cars.

A local chevy dealer was selling one with about 21,000 miles on it and I think they were asking $12,995. It sold before I had a chance to go look at it.

That car was a rollover if I remember correctly. Wow what an amazing job. You made some great progress with that car. You turned what I can only imagine was a total or close to a total into a brand new looking car. Props.

 

my buddy have a JG i think he told me the flame cost like $300 or little bit more.

 

Great work! It was so worth restoring it!

 

That picture of the final product all waxed up with the perfect lighting is probably one of my favorite pictures of a Monte ever. Looks absolutely amazing man.

 

yeah it was a roll over, bought in dec 03 & rolled jan 05

the car was a total loss, but has a clean title thanks to the original owner

i could of bought one for less than what it took to rebuild this one but wouldn't of had the fun or the experience that i gained by doing it

& the flames are a considerable amount more the complete set is around 3 grand ima have them painted on for a cleaner look unless i can get them cheaper

 

$3k for the flame? that's crazy!!! i thought $300 was expensive, but $3k?
