About

This is my 1972 Chevy Monte Carlo I have owned for the past 12 years. I built the 454 and the 400 trans. for it in 2005.Did all the body work on it in 2006 and finally built the rear end in 2007. Now after snapping off the left rear wheel studs during a burnout plans to redo the body again. Probably making some changes during the process. It runs a 8.6 at 80 mph in the 1/8th mile. I am guessing its around 400 HP never had it dyno. Overall its a fun car to drive and play with.
