Thanks Al! It is coming along! OK, I spun my rear wheel three full times and the axle made four full turns. They both almost ended up in the exact same place...
That means you have a 1.33:1 ratio. Well, not really. Something must have gone wrong there. BTW, I know I said you shouldn't have bought Shorty, but it's...
seems impossible to me. I want to sell my 73 Monte, but i can't find the right buyer. The only calls i have gotten are from people just looking for a car.. no...
It's OK, everyone I knew except one person said run away as fast as you can! I know I took a chance on it for sure, but I am a unique person and always drove...
It would be cool if you could make the whole nose flip forward to open the hood. I think to get the ratio you should try to turn the driveshaft exactly one...

Being the owner of a car that the mainstream automotive hobby holds in low regard I try to be a little sensitive toward other owner's of similar body styles...
Sorry mike. Those phrases like underdog and step child are true. The monte has almost pushed past all that but sadly not yet. Good luck it will happen but will...

Does anyone know what the different trim packages were on 2nd gen Montes? I've noticed several differences, and would really like to know what combinations...

No problem, you're not alone in that opinion, a lot of people don't care for the stacked headlight cars. The stacked headlights are an "acquired taste" I...
Wow! Your fingers sore LOL? Well depending on year their was the base Monte Carlo, a Monte Carlo S and the Landau with the "1/4" vinyl roof. I don't think...
--Well lets see all 73-77 montes were available in 3 models-basic,s coupe and landau.73 was the only year the power/roof was only available with the full...
I have to agree. When I owned a '74, I wanted a '73. They always looked more like a classic car to me, with the smaller rear bumper and the overall look of the...

I really love the look of 73 Chevelles, and I like 73 Montes a lot too, except for the placement of the front bumper guards, which make it look like the car is...

I like the '74 models best! I wouldn't mind owning a '76 or '77 model (stacked headlights) someday, but I prefer the round headlights anyway. But I have the...
The 74 definity speaks to me the most but the 73 is a close second! Those tail lights are killer on them both. I like the 73 front and bumper guards alot but...
Chris, Just wondering but are your rear sail panels (around opera windows) upholstered? Or are they the regular grained plastic. Mine have a vinyl covering...
Yeah, I always did like the "Knight" lights on the rear of the '74. And the bigger bumpers do soak up the impact. I was rear ended twice in my '74 and it...
