looks alot closer and see all the possible spots for rust. on a G body there are plenty of spots where rust hides.

Speaking “only” from experinence

door glass, hood and trunk lid front fenders\<— WTF don’t rust 🤣 other than that, have fun :blue:  
full framed cars ( only thing i heart ) :boink

cutty is the gbody guru :kekegay: be oh be 💏

$800 or so bucks isnt nearly an investment to cry about, have some fun with it and possibly sell it. Great comfortable cars no doubt.  
You could have six women with you and the car wouldnt even flinch while braking. The power is ok, but who needs to speed with 6 hottys 🤣  
😇

very true, unlike the GP regal and cutlass , the monte doesn’t have metal front or rear bumpers in either the CL, LS, SC or the SS. Obviously thou the bumper support is metal.
