| My Impala, which is still awaiting a fuel pump since I have no job, is sitting in the spot my dad used to park his truck in. In a moment of mental hilarity my dad forgot my Impala was there and promptly backed into my engine stand and pushed it into the trunklid of my Impala......DOH! I would make an insurance claim and have it fixed but I can't drive her to a shop! I was thinking about replacing the deck lid and shaving the key hole....would look sweet. O ya, and the fuel pump in my daily driver '97 Blazer died....ugh.      | |

| I've got a good deck lid I could make you a deal on...it's BBB, so you would have to paint it, but it is solid...probubly be able to buy it and have it painted for less than a $250 deductible.

| You sure that's a Monte? Looks more like a Celebrity/Citation/Cavalier or something. | |

| Yes, it is a Silver 1987 Monte Carlo LS, 4.3 liter V-6. Needs lifters. Fairly solid car, needs some TLC.
And it is for sale, my dad wants it gone since I have no cash to do anything with it. He has a guy interested in it now but he's jerking my dad around, he is taking his sweet-ass time picking it up. So if someone wants it SURE! | |

| That was the original plan. I was gonna find a 9C1 parts car and swap the tranny and LT-1 in.
Just have no job or money. | |

| The Monte is quite solid. I haven't looked underneath in a while but last time I was under it was decent.
And, sorry, the Monte has been spoken for. Had I known there would have been this much interest I would have put it on here a while ago! But I can post more pics.
Married life....well I'm loving it. It's not THAT different but it's nice calling her my wife and not my g/f-fiance.
The crazy thing is the kid. Went for and ultrasound yesterday and watched it move, actually move. I know it may not seem like too big of a deal but it was pretty crazy.
Now I need to find a damn job and finish my schooling. It's tough job hunting when you aren't qualified or have the education for the jobs that are out there, which is right where I am. | |

| Guys who are looking for G-Bodies..
I've got a buddy with an 87 - I think it's a monte.
Its currently running a 305 with 200R4 and is solid. No major rot, runs good and has good Rallye wheels with Firehawk 500 tires.
He also wants to include one or both of the 454 engines he has that he was going to install.
I can make a phone call if you guys want - I think he was looking at $1-$2k for everything. | |

| Thanks Bill.
Still kinda scarred about it but getting cautiously excited. I have always loved kids so I think it'll be cool. | |

Start by paper training, and work on getting it to scratch at the door when it has to go. And feed it. You gotta feed it. Just Kidding. But no worries. All you have to do is love her or him, the rest will fall into place. It will be tough sometimes, but well worth it. You will see.  |
