i just bought this car a few days ago. its my first project car. ive always built trucks. This is an 86 Chevy Monte Carlo SS. has a 305 H.O that runs well. has a rebuilt 700r4 trans with a shift kit. Has t tops. needs alot of work but im happy. The guy was gonna bring it to the scrap yard if i didnt buy it. Im pretty happy. will post more pics as i fix it up.
