of all the obnoxious things I have done to my car that some of you might find distatseful, I think it is interesting that the ONE thing the Mad Max club guys...
That's crazy to me, I have always liked the bumpers, I never understood why the bulk of the people found them ugly. People don't don't find the huge bumpers on...
I, too, have always liked the huge chrome bumpers on the 2nd gen MCs. I actually do NOT like the bumpers my '76 has ... they're the ones that have the rubber ...
Agreed Tommy. I really like the big bumpers on my Lemans. (no rubber) Even get a kick out of it when people mention all that shine! Tim ... understood why the...
I think the main reason I prefer the all-chrome bumpers (somewhat of a misnomer, I guess, since all of the '76 bumpers are all-chrome...some of them just have...
I think my thing in the beginning was two fold. One because they were an option, and love having an optioned car. Second for the usability factor. I have...
The Mad Max guys don't seem to care at all about functionality. The more plastic ground effects, and the lower the car is to the ground, the better. But I am...
Yeah I am real big on functionality myself. I love how out of touch hot rodders are saying the Monte is a boat with no power, and it was the mainstay bodystyle...
Those El Camino toppers are so smooth they way they match the body lines. Wow, that looks nice! Now you need an El Camino! ... was ... which ... of ... El ... ...

Nah those guys don't like the "bulbous" 73-77 models... It's anything but as far as they are concerned! Tommy ________________________________ From:...
I checked out the site about the GNX, but they don't have any information on quarter mile times. I've driven my brother's '86 GN and I have to wonder if the...
He's a member of the Turbo Buick forums. I think he said his is a mid-12 second car. Its actually a Cutlass diesel that he grafted Regal body panels onto. He...
If I had the money, in addition to restoring my 76, I would swap in the new 4.5-liter Duramax (coming in 2010) with 6 speed automatic transmission. The engine...

Hey has anyone gotten their Monte Carlo appraised? I was just wondering if they had what the value was. I'm getting different classic car insurance and with...
I wish mine was worth getting appraised, Nick. Sadly, she's far from that stage. A couple in my local car club had their 85 Monte Carlo SS appraised at...

Anybody ever repair this? I dont have a problem, but on another board I am on a guy restoring a 4 speed 73 Chevelle has this problem. Can it be repaired from...
My 73 Monte has some cowl rust on it, It was a pretty clear seam that connected the cowl to the upper firewall. I just closed my eyes, and decided to think...
