espo Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I enjoyed your build on this. What did you use for your heater hoses ? The paint treatment really makes this car standout. I always liked the "rake stance" back then and it offered enough room for thew oversized tires to stick out of the wheel wells just what HiJackers were invented for.

Can-Con Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Now there's something you don't see everyday. ? Nice work, I was following along , cool to see you replicate your old ride. BTW, I did see a '79 painted just like that at a gas station a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Very, very nice! I love the Monte Carlo, such a good looking car. Nicely detailed, even the brake calipers can be seen. love little touches like that. Nice one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plowboy Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 That's a nice looking Monte Carlo Joel! Brings back memories of the old days when I owned an '81 Malibu. Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSheep214 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I owned the '78 Monte Carlo. Blew up the 305 engine, had a 350 put in, slapped on some Cragar rims on Dunlop GT Qualifiers My sister had that kit back in our younger years. Yours came out simply awesome!!
