this is my 06 monte carlo ltz that I have swapped to be 6 speed manual with a trans from an 07 g6 gt amont a ton of other little mods like grand prix gxp brakes and seats, malibu steering wheel, monte ss ground fx, 06 impala front bumper, 08 impala ltz wheels, full zzperformance suspension coilovers, sway bars, control arms, and zzp 3 inch stainless exhaust

Nice color/wheel combo!

If you don't mind me asking - what drove the desire to swap? How much did it cost?

thank you I wanted to make something unique and I haven't seen it done before as well as i had a lot of it laying around from the g6 I parted im not 100% sure on price I bought the g6 for $1k and had to buy 2 axles and then just do a lot of teardown fab and reassembly id say somewhere in the $2-3k range

Awesome! Looks nice! I love the Impala 10 spokes! And the manual trans is definitely not common! Did you have a lot of computer/PCM tuning issues to over come?

There wasnt a lot i had to jump a couple wires to get my key back and everything else was tuning from the g6 file- the only thing I have to figure out yet is tricking it into thinking it's in park to be able to change settings in it to turn off autostart change when doors to unlock to when I shut the car off and program a new keyfob

Very cool! Well also take any other pictures you might have. We love those around here. Well maybe thats just me.

Anyway, are those projector headlights? Which ones are they?

That's not bad at all!

nope they are not projector headlights just oem black headlights clear lens

yeah most of that money was saved doing it myself and reusing any parts I can i also replaced a bunch of parts on the engine and suspension while it was all out like the steering rack and new idler pulleys and tensioner pulleys oil pan seal front and rear main seal as well as putting an lsd in the trans too

This is the interior after putting the clutch pedal in and starting to mount up the shifter

This is how the clutch pedal got welded in to the brake pedal assembly

Oh, I enjoy pics of custom work too! :)
