Dad bought a new project.

Yea so my dad sent me an email that he picked up a 85 monte carlo off one of his friends. Its been sitting since last fall but He said it started right up and there isnt any visible rust on it. He plans on changing the front end to the SS type. Looks like a pretty fun project.
He sent me some pics but they are off a cell phone so they are sorta ******, but you get the point.

Yes you cant tell from the pictures really but the body is imaculate no rust or bubbles and the whole care is origional for the most part from what I seen last time I personaly seen it around 2 years ago, Keep in mind it has been sitting since last fall without being hosed off or anything in them pics. My dad only paid 800 for it since his friend just wanted to get rid of it since he bought a brand new truck thats why it sat since then.

But yes it definatly has a lot of potential to me a nice car with some time and money.

My friend's got an 88 Monte Carlo SS, pretty nice car, but it's just a 305. I never liked the body style all that much, but it could grow on me I guess.

okay sorry not the 80's it was a late seventies car, but honestly i don't think they changed a whole ton through those years
