Re: "Project 72 Monte"

I went out to check on what I remember to be a really nice 72 grill. Hum, the grill headlight bezels and several other parts are MIA.

They had the nice front bumper halfway off, but it's hanging there.

I guess I need to step up security.

Re: "Project 72 Monte"

Hello Larry, I did not realize you were on here too! This is David from Charlotte. I posted to you on the Monte Carlo forum. I had a 70 Monte for 10 years then stupidly sold it. Would love to have another one; BUT I have Squarebodyism. I own 4 right now ..... 90 Suburban, 85 C20, 85 SWB and found a 74 C20 with a factory 454 a few weeks ago. The 74 might be more of a parts truck, because of rust... I will be watching this thread, I love what your doing. David

Re: "Project 72 Monte"

My bumpers would make cores. The front has had a chain hooked to the bottom, and the back has heavy surface rust.

I bought a rechrome truck bumper off RockAuto the other day, and it was a really nice piece, and the price wasn't bad.

Re: "Project 72 Monte"

Found a grill in Delaware on craigslist the other week and was able to make a deal with him on it. Wow !! I did not realize how heavy the grill was on these things

Re: "Project 72 Monte"

Unfortunately no, this project is on standby until the 68 is finished and we get the new shop built.
