I would like to commend the "munis" for their effort in trying to help out during this MTA bus strike. Montebello us Lines has even added extra buses to and from downtown L.A. and the Santa Monica Bus Lines has also beefed up service. It is possible to get from Montebello and surrounding communities to Santa Monica using these two muni bus companies. Torrance and Gardena also run bus lines to downtown L.A. so it is possible to gain access to those areas of the county as well. Granted the ride may be slower or filled with passengers but get there you will.

Actually it is quite possible. Montebello Line 40 goes to downtown L.A. where you can catch the Santa Monica Blue Bus Line 10 to Santa Monica.
Go to NW corner of Beverly Blvd / Wilcox Ave
Take Montebello 40 West (DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES)
Pay $.90 plus .25 transfer (Monthly Pass: $(0))
Get off at 5th St. / Flower St.
Go to SW corner of Flower St. / 5th St.
Take Santa Monica 10 South (SANTA MONICA)
Use transfer plus 1.00
Get off at Broadway / 4th St.
Ending at Santa Monica Mall
Total Cost: $2.15
Estimated Travel Time: 1 Hour 28 Minutes
Pretty good and this runs strike or not.
