So long 87
Today my 87 got towed to its final resting place Kinda sad seeing it go , this was my moms last monte and my first monte, this is the car that got me started on my passion for montes, It makes me feel good knowing that my 86 ls and many other montes around will benefit, from the parts we stripped off this past weekend so the legacy will live on!!

Doug, It's sad to see it go, but Like you said, Mom would agree, it's better to see the parts go to other cars than to let them rot in the boneyard. I had too mch fun stripping that car, We need to find another one to tear apart, LOL! Oh wait, I have Matt's 84 to tear apart and rebuild!

Sad to see a car with such sentimental value go, but at least you have plenty of parts to carry on the connection!

Always devistating to see a car go, no matter what condition it is in...But as stated it will be nice to see all the "donor" parts on other rides...

Doug it is sad to see your Monte get hauled away. It's memory will be carried on through many other Monte's in WNY and beyond.

So sad, I hope my car never looks like that. I plan on keeping it for many more years, like forever.
