Excellent, good for you mate.

It's going back together.

But look at that roof, and that cowl.

I'm glad I have POS cars for my parts cars.

It's going back together.

So a 25 year old kid with raw talent and minimal years of experience is going to resurrect the Monaco. The same Monaco that a 60 year old guy with 40 years of experience and presumed knowledge couldn't do .


There's something in the wood pile.

Good on you brother! The story of the P.O.’s ridiculous folly with this car infuriates me to this day and the fact that there was any debate on this forum still blows me away.

 

['69FuryIIIConvertible]

The fact people defended the previous owner of that car boggles my mind....

Yet people gave me **** for cutting up a slant 6 Fury I that had no interior, keys, ownership and a seized motor....

How many pieces of the panels and parts did you rescue with it? Or is it just the shell?

 

[Samplingman]

Did you get the dash vin tag or the fender tag?

Did you get the dash vin tag or the fender tag?

Yeah but that means nothing now. The original is gone. I'm gonna build the 70 Polara my dad had in the late 70s for him Blue. White top. White gut. 440. Buckets/console.

Yep! Bought it for 100 bucks as an engine donor for his 68 GTS 383 Dart. Ended up driving the Polara for more.

[71Polara383]

Hood and core support....I knew it was a wise move hanging on to a bunch of spare parts.

 

[polara71]

i never argue unless I m right .

 

[Samplingman]

Um, nice, but don’t you still need a roof for the gold car?
