OK so im going to try to sell my 87 monte carlo on here... never sold a car on here so I will list it to the fullest extent, and note I only deal with pay pal. I purchased this car in 09 and built a mild 355 for it and raced it, the car then ran a 13.10 at 106. then I traded it away, and purchased it back last year and re did everything. TOO much invested in the car.
the car is a 87 monte carlo LS sport. the mileage on title is exempt and when I bought it the first time the original owner told me it was about 70k. I can not verify that. the cluster says 60k title is clear not reconstructed. I converted it to the SS nose, and swapped the light harness. all lights work. only piece needed to complete the conversion is the filler plate between nose and the middle of rad support. I was planning to make a custom one but never got around to it.
The body is in good shape,it's currently primered wich some people love others hate, I personally only primered it for time being until I got it painted. the fenders are brand new, all LS moldings and rivets are gone, as well as vinyl top. only filler in the body is in the top of the corner glass at the roof, common prob for these cars. there is a small hole smaller then a dime in each quarter under the marker by the marker lights. I'm not good at body work so I didn't attempt to fix them. Car has the SS spoiler too. every light in and on the car works.
cooling system: stock lt1 rad from 94 Camaro, dual electric fan set up from same car, dual relays , wired to thermo switch to come on at 170 and off at 160.

Rear is a stock 373 posi monte rear, ss sway bar... NOTE THERE IS NO FRONT SWAY BAR
Exhaust is 2 3" flowmasters mounted right at the headers, just on the other sided of crossmember, no body exit, will need different exhaust set up to be legal. I made this just to get the car mobile until I got a new exh kit, but ended up liking the way it sounds, motor responds extremely well to this too. its loud
wheels are cragar street lites, not aluminum, steel wheels. one rear is slightly rusted but still looks good, 15x8 rear and 15x7 front, brand new 275/60/15s on the back.
jegs electric fuel pump, pre and post filters, new aluminum 3/8th fuel line from tank up. new jegs fuel pressure gauge on carb
Interior was dark red, I changed everything over to gray, car still needs a headliner and the carpet isn't that great. should have a new carpet and headliner
OVERALL the car is great if you like G body's like I do. looks tough and runs awesome and sounds even better, with little body work, paint, and a headliner the car can be show worthy. its not easy to find these any more due to people wrecking them on the tracks. car has not been raced since the new drive train installed, but is well capable of a low 12 to high 11. pulls very hard and is reliable, runs at 160 all day and about 50 lb oil pressure warm.
also battery is mounted in trunk, new box and cable kit, 2 gauge power wire, works fine and charges at 14.5 volts
any questions, just message me I can answer anything related to this car.
ONLY reason im selling this car is I'm having a kid and don't need a project right now and can use the money towards a new car.
SORRY forgot to list the gas gauge does not work, it did about a month ago, it just stopped. sorry

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes
Wed, 31 Oct 2012It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
