I haven't done one of these "dandies" threads in awhile. Plain truth is, I just haven't been looking. This one is for Jim S and the carb-turbo guys.

The VIN shows this car staring out as a 81 MC with the carb-turbo engine. The exact number of turbo Montes have never been known but the goober who built this one is either going to hell or quite possibly in line for sainthood replacing the Buick motor for a Chevy, depending on how you think about. What's really sad is these turbo MC's were the fastest Montes built until the 1983 MCSS came out,and there might be some debate on that. Buick carb turbo-175HP. Chevrolet L69 HO 305-180HP. Give the turbo MC the same 3.42 gear and there would be no comparison. :6:
