80's factory lightweights?

[beater68427]

In 1985-6ish I built a 78 Monte Carlo with a 396 I liked the small Monte's at the time and one day I was driving by the Chevrolet dealer and noticed a new SS I went in and test drove it I thought that was just cool I liked it a lot more than the new Camaros. Over the next few weeks I thought how cool it would be to have a new SS with a big block in it and came up with the idea of ordering a plane jane Monte SS and installing a new crate LS6 I went to the dealer and asked if I could order a AC delete car and other items deleted I cant remember all that was deleted, so we sat and filled out a order for a car with a 305 and 373 posi and basically no other options having manual windows manual locks etc I told him lets order it and he said I needed to pay up front for a car like that, because he would never be able to sell it otherwise.... there went that idea... But it could be done.
