and the second pic with the grill between the headlights looks more like an SS front from a monte carlo, which is different than the iroc frontend on the first pic.

nope, they were always frame cars, even up to the end in the mid-80's, which is why i wouldn't think twice to tow with a monte carlo, el-camino, or mailbu

Okay first of all: isn't that an El Camino? And second: Is that not a Monte Carlo front end?

Contrary to popular belief, the el camino SS was designed and produced (By Choo Choo customs) before the monte carlo SS. The monte carlo ss nose was patterend after the el camino setup.

No, it's not. It's an el camino SS front end, which does NOT interchange with the monte carlo front end.
