Evening O' Sparky one.
Speaking of repairing, I had it down to replacing the starter in that Monte in about 30 minutes. That was from pulling the ramps out of the garage, dropping the header, pulling the plugs on that side, changing starters, re installing the header and plugs and putting the ramps away. She would cook the selenoid every 4-6 months.
