Cool 88 Monte Carlo SS GBody
Hello everyone, new member here. Recently purchased this vehicle this past August from New York. It will be a fun project starting from the ground up. Looking forward to hear from other forum members.

I bought the car from a shop owner for $1500 had it and had it shipped to Virginia.

Who doesn't love a G-Body?

Looks pretty decent, just needs some TLC. Are you planning full on restoration or tidy up a bit and get to driving it?

Thank you! Doing major research on everything. I'm OBSESSED with this car stuff.
Step 1: buy new tires and wheels
Step 2. Build a 454 or 383

Thanks its nothing compared to your Monte which I've seen on YouTube and other forums. Very motivating. It will be a full restoration project to original condition. But as of right now driving it sounds really fun. No show car over here.
