My 79 Monte Paint Complete - PICS
Well the paint is finished and the outside is officially DONE! It is an 06 Mazda Copper Red color.
Next up, a complete air ride system with a full set of strong arms. Then a big brake upgrade and I'll be all set for some 'Pro Touring'

Someone please give this car a proper photoshop
**nevermind** I tried to post a pic of your car lowered a little but I hacked it out using Paint....And I didn't see your post in multimedia. You obviously know how to photoshop. Again, car looks awesome...

Sorry. I just had to. What size wheels are on it now? I'd say the chopped ones are closer to 17s and 19s. But i just stretched them till they looked right to me, just swapped some rim for some tire.

No need to be sorry, I think it looks great. They are 17's on there now. I thought about 40 series tires, but I don't want to sacrifice ride quality too much, but man, maybe I need a spare set of 19s/20s on 40's along with the air ride... Originally Posted by TonyL

I am impressed! You took a body style that I really don't like and made a very sweet looking car out of it! That looks damned good!!

Diggin the color. It definetly needs a drop but not sure about the rims. Not in to a lot of shine. Maybe if the spokes were painted. Seeing a nice Monte makes me miss my 86ss.

Sweet Monte-
My first car was a '79 in that color. Well parts of it were that color, anyway. 305, 2.29:1 rear, 14" rallys and white letters, and every power option imaginable, I believe. That car held up to an amazing amount rawhiding.

Thats exactly how this one started. 305, 2;29 rear and 14" hubcaps! Sat nice and low with the original sagging coils. Originally Posted by JWilson
