Very nice. I've always loved that generation of the Monte Carlo.

Re: 59 Chevy Build

Just went through the whole thing. Looks awesome. Can't believe the red one is gone. Well if I had to pick one; I like the black one better anyway. At least through a computer screen.

I'm waiting to work on my 57. Still trying to get my 70 together. As well as trying to get my old mans lo buck 55 on the road. ..... speaking of that, its out in the shop calling my name right now. Anyway. Love it. And, for gods sake don't have any momentary laps in judgment with this on and find yourself without this one as well.... KEEP YOU HEAD ON MAN!!

well.........for this build, a small block will be more than enough, and besides, I don't have to hang another bracket for power steering with a small block....

Re: 59 Chevy Build

A '32 Ford with a small block, a blower, AND a stick.......man, that's my dream car!

I WILL own one someday, and it'll be a '32 thru '34 Ford coupe, fenderless, nasty motor, stick, Halibrand spindle mounts in the front, 16X11 Halibrand Sprints in the rear.

Please post more shots of the progress!!! Although this is a Chevy truck site, I'm sure folks won't mind.........

Re: 59 Chevy Build

Yeah, I'm with chevyrestoguy. I've always had a weak spot for the '34 ford myself, with the styling advancement from the '32. Although i would not turn away a '32 either.

So now that the cat is outta the bag, your going to hafta produce more pictures and details.
