Thanks bro! 👌🏾

Thanks bro...

Appreciate ya man!!!

I appreciate it…it’s been a very long ride😂

Thanks for the input...1st black car...I hear they're a handful to keep clean

@@87SSBOI not really the you just can't be lazy. I got three black vehicles. Getting luxury sport mc painted black now.

Nice elco

Thanks and yea I’m on the same vibe over here 🫡

Thanks! I will try restoration before spending money to replace #BudgetBuild...preciate the input

🦾🦾🦾... definitely makes a big difference

Yes expensive but I had lots of body work/restoration work...it was around 6k when said n done

@@87SSBOI Actually 6k sounds pretty good to me ! My body is good and cancer free, a Rocky Mountain West car. I'm impressed with the paint for 6k . Thanks for you honest answer, your car is an inspiration ! I've had mine since 2010 and I need to get it redone. Thanks for the info !!!

Nope...but I do have stock 3.73 limited Slip posi...it's doing what's it needs to do...even on 24s and I can burnout and everything

Haven't been wet sand n buffed yet...waiting on Spring to do that cause I knew it would be in my garage getting other work done to it getting all dirty...I also plan to have it ceramic coated after the cut n buff 👌🏾

@@87SSBOI well he did a GREAT job .I really love that paint

Car was painted by Walkers Auto n Body in Suffolk, VA 757-264-3021...all interior was done by ME except wrapping the seats (JTs Interior Hertford, NC 252-455-2474)

@@87SSBOI say less!

6k

Yea unfortunately...it was supposed to be detailed before it went to the decal shop but there were some last minute shop issues so I just grabbed it and went...It was already late for the appt

I feel you bro looks good tho

I jus followed him to check him out

Yea it was but not anymore ✊🏾...replaced with all new metal and weatherstripping

💯💯💯

Thanks for watching!!

Thanks 👌🏾... Definitely gotta get the lights..I plan to attempt restoration first... we shall see 😬

@@87SSBOI yea that restoration video might go crazier.

Thanks!! I may end up doing that as well but I'm going to attempt a restoration first...I get most my parts from Dixie...here's a 10% off code that's good thru Dec 31 CGBG

Yes I believe it was hella work...I wish I could have gotten footage of it being done but it was hard to get to the shop due to it being an hour away

Thanks!!! Looking forward to seeing yours

Yea man I had hella work to be done but they took care of me!

no I didn’t…I had a decal shop do it

@@87SSBOI Came out nice! Can I ask how much your into your restoration? I'm in the process of rebuilding myself and it seems like it's going to be a long journey!

@@antj211 I'm at around $18k...that's including the price of the car itself

@@87SSBOI Good Lawd! I paid 8k for mines and I basically just need suspension work and address a few leaks other then that just small things like new seals and put my own vision on it. Thanks for the response you earned a new sub💯

@@antj211 Thanks bro! She needed a lot of love...I paid $1700 for mine

Thanks for the reply. I know a local place that makes them

Nice!!! Hey man these parts are becoming a lot more readily available!!! Check out my other vids for all I've done to it and replaced...I get most of my parts from www.dixierestorationdepot.com and www.gbodyparts.com

Good luck with the restoration🦾🦾🦾

Plenty of places to get the items you listed. Phoenix Graphics has made the decal kits for the 4th gen MCSS for well over a decade. Mikes Montes, Dixie Monte Carlo or OPGI has all the parts you need.

That thang sweet!!! I Just bought a clean ttop 86 Monte ss in Fredericksburg Va we need to put the montes together Im looking for a 2in cowl hood

@@87SSBOI How long did you wait to have your stripes put on? The previous owner of mine had the car painted and put the decals on immediately after the paint job, and they started letting go in a year. The stripe shop told me that the paint was still curing and bleeding off chemicals, was the reason they started turning loose prematurely.

@@mypointofview6056 they’re wrong..lol…go watch my boi @spraywaycustoms…..he puts stripes right on after paint and then clears over them, which is what I should have done but I listened to the paint shop n decal place…but to answer your question I waited 2 weeks…the problem with yours is it’s prob a cheap decal…that normally happens with the cheap ones…I have the Phoenix graphics kit which is like $275

@@87SSBOI the previous owner used Phoenix Graphix, the ones I am replacing them with are also Is also Phoenix Graphix. I don't think he even waited 2 weeks.

Entire t-top was replaced with brand new metal and weatherstripping!! Flawless now 🦾🦾

I love the stripes...had to put em back on!!!

The stripes are factory and what the difference of to the 83-84 logos from the 87 where they placed? And I see you're kind of a MCSS connoisseur like myself wonder do you know that the trunk on the early 80's body is shorter from front to back and top to bottom is fatter...... you have to look to tell but for sure it's that way I think it's the mc before they even made the ss model and then the front clip and spoilers are different on some cars the front clip on some have aggressive looking eyes then other some eyes are slanted downward in the middle and some is even straight across and the spoilers are different on the 87 since it really ain't a such thing of 88 but the 87-88 spoilers kinds lay down while the early years sit up with a slight slant but the 350 mcss don't have spoilers and can come in manual 4 speeds with a checker board style rim..... some clones the spoilers sits almost straight up and down because they gotta drill the holes and have them to close to the edge or to far from the edge me myself I like the I would say as a guess a 35 to 45 percent slant leaning back while the 87-88 have a 80 to 85 percent slant it laying back so far I've even seen those put on wrong where it's damn near flat with the trunk I don't like the spoilers tilted to much or sitting to far up & down I like the bump with the shelf type not the one that goes even with the trunk and I like the well shit the 84 mcss is my favorite you of all love the blue color but as far as the difference in the front clip you can tell mostly and the different size of trunk you can tell with the white ones the have a different look then the other colors keep in mind the white is like the first ones mcss I mean

@@erickroberts5172 the 81-88 main body is the same. there may be some fender marker slight differences but trunks are the same. what you may mean is all 87-88 rear bumper covers & tail light buckets are different than 81-86. no ss came with a 350 from factory maybe a few dealers made that switch? they all came with L69 305s with 2004R trans except 83 & 84 84 may have had a few 2004Rs. great trans btw. the ss nose were all the same and elamino ss had almost the exat same but they didn't have ss fender body line on the fenders. the "agressive" nose you may mean is the pontiac 2+2 i think started in 85? you dont see many of those there was even a areo coupe 2+2. as far as the stickers every 2 yrs they changed greatly, they were all in the same spot best thing i can say is look thru yahoo pics 83-84, 85-86 & 87-88. my personal fav is 85/86 but 83-84 i'm trying to go with that style just for being OG on my 86.the spoilers you are correct, 87/88 they were laydown to go along with the smoother rear bumper over, i personally like those better and got 1 on my 86' with its factory setup otherwise 83-86 had the standup spoilers only. those checker rims are ugly AF as are all other monte rims, looks like those were just for the 82 CL. white was only color for 83 with bench seat. i think silver came in 84 too? could be wrong on that.
