I got a couple Suzuki Samurai’s but I want a Monte Carlo, my second car. I love them. Mine had a 283, built with a friend that died years later and that killed me as a person. But building out a Monte in New England in February is not a light task.
I miss you Joe, I am so glad I could say goodbye.
$11,000 in 1980. That’s crazy. That’s $44,000 in today’s dollars, for a 52-HP car with almost no amenities. That was more than a nice Impala with AC and an automatic cost.
