1971 Monte Carlo Rescued! Will it run and drive after 35yrs?

This Monte Carlo was a true 1 owner car! A true barn find if you will, rusty, crusty and dusty! I was given this amazing original classic to get it back on the road. So follow me along on this journey. Enjoy!

I love those classic Western turbine style wheels.

Nice video I've always liked the Monte Carlo they need love like the Chevelle ❤️

[@RustyRelicsRescueGarage]

Yep, the Monte has always been a little underrated. I do love the Chevelle too though.

[@adamcreech4578]

Agreed. The Monte is like a Chevelle in a dinner suit

Citrus green is the name of the original color. A VERY cool color

Nice find!! I love the short body Monte Carlo, my first car was a dark maroon 74 monte, 350 big body car, definitely more show then go🤣, that old 350 was tired lol, I sold it a few weeks later because my dad kept telling me to not buy it, he was right lol

Enjoyed the video man! I recently picked up my Dad's old '71 Monte that has sat under an old barn roof for the last 20 years. Its about the same shape as yours but I plan to restore it. Good luck on yours man! PS: Do you happen to remember the bit size you used to drill out the trunk lock?

[@RustyRelicsRescueGarage]

@@samuellevacy8638 I believe I used about a 7/16 or so. Good luck with your restoration, and thanks for watching!
