I don't know which was stiffer, the wires on the starter or my fingers. Not a good time. But I got it done. Did brakes on all 4 corners, exhaust, rebuilt the valve body in the transmission, rebuilt the carburetor multiple times.
I had a late 70's Monte Carlo, too. The first car that was all mine. Loaded beast.

Just like this one. Same color scheme.
