My 87 Monte SS
Permalink Closed

Hi Everyone. At the end of this year I will be taking the monte off the road meaning staying home but keeping it registered. I am taking the whole front end off and I will post pics as the project comes along. Its time she got a make over with the frame get some new headers and clean her up. I'm hoping get some new gauages in, por15 the whole frame and more. I will post it I take her part and doing some work to her. Porbably the end of OCT november sometime I will be starting.
