Here is another one of my G-body finds. This is a 1982 Monte Carlo that my mechanically challenged friend Kurt used to own. The previous owner had installed a set of MCSS doors with power windows and power door locks, and a MCSS trunk lid with a stand-up spoiler. It has a 350 engine and a TH350 tranny. Within the past two years, Kurt paid a lot of money to several  different mechanics to get this Monte the way he liked it. He had one mechanic put in a 2 1/2 inch aluminized dual exhaust with a set of Flowmaster mufflers, new exhaust manifolds, and a notched transmission crossmember for the dual exhaust to clear. He paid another one to install a new set of Richmond Gear 3.73 gears to replace the 2.41 gears in the stock  posi rear end. He paid another to install a new MSD HEI distributor, Holley 650, and Edelbrock intake. And a different one to install a brand new gas tank with sending unit and straps.

One day it wouldn't start. Kurt couldn't figure it out so he parked it under a tree in his fathers yard and it sat there for almost a year. I offered to take it off his hands but he wouldn't sell it to me. Finally his father told him to get rid of it, or he'd call the junkyard and have it towed away. Kurt took off the intake, carb, and distributor and called me up. He said I could have it for $100. I towed it to my house the next day.
