			Also here:  https://www.carsforsale.com/used-car...9823/inventory For 50k you would think they could put the horn button on correctly. Pretty cool car. I like the functioning (appears that way) cowl induction hood. Nice touch. But I could do without some of the other bling type add ons, like the carbon fiber dash inserts.

 LOL, I can just hear the salesman saying, "oh that is just a minor adjustment to straighten out that horn button". Rich

			I can imagine how nice that car would look with a clean set of factory rallies and some period correct radials. It would look twice as good with normal size wheels.

			Kind of a shame to not put that one back 100% factory stock, considering how rare of a car it is.  There are plenty of early 70's Monte's out there that could be set up with LS power.  Oh well.  His car, his way.

			This one still seems to be looking for a home - it's been relisted in the link below. I can't help but think it would have been an easier sell if it had stayed stock. Link to 1970 Monte Carlo auction |

			That car would cost more than its worth to return it to stock, IF, it still had the original drivetrain with it.  A shame indeed.
