Permalink Closed


On This episode, We find the team traveling to The Heart of PA, in search of some lost souls.

"Hey Tim, Jim Squizz says they have 2 yards that have some old Montes there, ready for another Road trip?"

"Hell Yeah!!! Its time to start investigating some places that we have never been too"

6:55 AM, On the road and out of control already!


wide open roads, running late and need to make some time

the team Joins up with Jim and his friend Chuck and enter the yard

redneck engineering at it's best, and this was out in the parking lot!

Once in the yard the team heads to the farthest point to start the investigation

this pile of scrap was huge!

The truck section proved to be a good source for parts and fun








NYMCC TAZ Logo on a firetruck!!

Of course Tim can't read!







This episode brought to you in Part by CarQuest

If your looking for Shoes,

Golf Equipment

Books,


Tapes and CDs


or just something to hold, EZ PULL & SAVE has it all!

Now Back to the search

It was starting to seem like the team was on a safari! Wildlife all around, Impalas..

 Jaguars..

Mustangs..

Pintos..

Cougers..          

Sunbirds..

Fire Birds..

Eagles..

Finally after about 5 miles of walking, the team finds the old car section!





















This Olds wagon was just about mint!! And we grabbed the vent windows for Scott!

Tim Jacking off!


Luv Truck! Chevy Luv Truck!!







A sweet Old Hearse! Could be the next Monte Hunters vehicle!



Matt checks it out for comforbilty

When was the last time anyone has seen a LeCar?? There werre 6 of them there!

Time for some Bowling??

The Pins!

The Bowler..

the result..


how about Junkyard BMX races?

Matt takes 1st!


Tim finishes second!

Jim Says "you guys are weird!" " Someone is going to get the Club!"

The reveal,  The Montes!!!

Some first Gens..






Second gens





Third gens

Forth gens


Fifth gens

One lonely sixth gen, or what was left of it anyways..

 

Next Time on Monte Hunters, the team heads to another yard near by

Um, ya know, ya'll could make a road trip to IL ... we have junk yards, too.....lol.


NICE report as usual, Dave! Odd to see so many LeCars ... are any still on the road? Though, I do have a matchbox version somewhere around here...lol.

Along with that Cutlass wagon, I spotted a few cars that seemed odd to be there ... that white Cutlass for one. Yeah, rough, but looks to have many good parts on it yet....

As for the MCs...
...too much gone on the first gen to tell what year (well, at least, for me).
...the brown and blue 2nd gens are both 1974 models, from what I can see.
...the maroon 3rd gen is a 1980.
...not sure about the 4th gen years either....

And ... finally ... wow ... the stuff you find is amazing. Kinda makes you wonder why some of that stuff was left behind.....

Cort, Someday! You know I want to make it out there to one of your monte cruises. We were just fortunate that the Squizz's allowed us to stay at their place.

2 of the 3 first gens were '70's and the 3rd was a '72
Both second gens were 74, my favorite 2nd gen!
the 3rd was an 80 and there was a 78 there as well, but the pictures came out too blurry to use
the 4th gen was an 82 acording to the door jamb, But the door didn't match the rst of the car too well, so it was hard to say.

as for the stuff, Hard to say, but we have more fun with that than anything! LOL!


Jim, the weather was perfect!! And hotel squizz will be featured in the Tim and Dave show in a few days biggrin

Of course we did get to see another 4th gen there as well

The team finds only 5th gen Montes










Some of the other sites

this Vette was a total loss!



After a hard day of investigating, Tim finds time to relax in the shade

It had to be fast! it had stickers!



this poor Caprice was put through the ringer!

Stay tuned! Action news report at 11!

Here we find Matt customizing a regal

All In all it was a great trip and we can't wait to go back!teamwork.gif

Hey Dave,

Yep ... I know you do!  It'd be great to have you out here for a visit!

 

The 1st gen that was a '72 ... did it still have the hood spear, by chance?

 

On the '82 4th gen ... was the grill still intact?  If so ... '82 MCs are EASY to spot by the grill, as are '81 MCs.  The '81 MCs do NOT have "Monte Carlo" in the grill:

http://www.chevyasylum.com/cort/mc1981/Cort_1981_07r8_jpg.html

 

The '82 grill is similar, except ... it HAS the "Monte Carlo" nameplate ... and the grill features the horizontal bars; the vertical ones that make the "Cross hatch" look in the '81 MC are gone for '82 (presumably to allow for the nameplate to be added)....

 

BTW ... that Caprice ... looks like it could be fixed up and run, unless it has underlying problems that weren't evident in that pic.....   The body of that one looks to be in a bit better shape than my Caprice....but not by much ;).

The spear was damaged Cort, otherwise I would have grabbed it, even if I put it in my collection, Right alongside my 1995 Monte Carlo owners cassette, LOL!

Don't remember the grilles, they might have been damaged and that caprice, Who knows? It might have been a cash for Clunkers car for all I know
