You pics don't show up and just want me to log into my Gmail account. I don't know if the link is legit or a scam (so I'm erroring on the side of caution and not putting my credentials into it even though the URL and the site look legit).
Can you post them on a site like Photobucket that won't require a log in to see them?

honestly, if you are looking to buy this Monte, I would walk away. If you already own it, then drive it for what it's worth. If you want to restore it to it's glory days, be prepared to spend some quality time and money.
The reason I say this:
- The huge body rot taking the lower rear quarters and the rocker panels. This is some of the structural integrity of the car. I personally think it's a bigger issue then then roof panel. Plus, if it's that bad, how's the rot attacking the floor pans and uni-body frame. Get a good look under it.
- Doors need heavy repair or replace. Can tell where the doors meet the fenders some serious damage was done.
- Front clip is all replaced, but is the body straight? It obviously all suggests the car rear ended someone.
- Are the air bags still good and working?
- Looks like body rot where the roof and windshield meet, you will probably need to remove the windshield and replace the roof panel (just a guess).
I'm not saying she can't be fixed. But it's not cheap and it's not easy.
