i need to get more pic's of it.i'am trying to get a 71'monte from a friend. it has all new sheet metal on it.but it is just a shell.the frame is sandblasted and painted.my plan is to put all my parts on it.i want the interior to look stock,besides it well be stick shift.i want autometer style gauge's in the dash.not sure on paint color.i have a 400 sbc block.that i plan to stroke to 427 with all forged parts.i might get a pair of procomp 15 degree heads.it well have a solid roller cam.i have a tko 5 speed trans for it.i already put new axles in the 12 bolt rear end with a heavy duty cover.i like to work on cars for a living.i'am just a car crazy person.been around muscle cars all my life.
