I would keep the original paint, nostalgic as hell. Looks good Dave, keep up the good work. Thank you for all you do for us fans.

Million dollar idea daddy dave…a legit no prep drag week, I’d watch the h ell out of that show, and I’ll bet I’m not the only one.

Thank Dave for showing us your cool build !.Can't wait to watch her on Dyno and going cruise on route 66 with 405 guys in near future !.

My favorite street outlaws og moment has to be Daddy Dave winning cash days in Jackies Sonoma that thing was fucking unstoppable I loved the old school episodes so much because of that GMC pickup

Absolutely knocked it out of the park on this car Dave. Leave the decals knock the chrome rocker skirts off and keep it white. Beautiful build.

Awesome car, can’t wait to see it run great job on the upgrades!!!

Seeing so much nice parts come together with a thought behind...🙏🙏🙏 I just love that car...👏👏👏

I'm so proud of you Dave, you've come a long way since the beginning. You went from not affording to race to having the best of the best, so cool 😎. A racing Cinderella story. It's awesome that you can make your automotive dreams a reality now. You always were racing royalty, just hidden. You have an amazing imagination with great ideas and now you can express it freely, so cool!!! Take care Daddy Dave!!!

Love the fact going small tire , but still have all the chassis work to plant whatever power you have to the ground . Classic car that still looks like a classic car . Kudos

Enjoyed the walk around thoroughly thanks a million !! Top notch build made it way better!!

Dave sounds like Bob Ross talking about this Monte Carlo. Sounds so calm and he walks through the whole car and takes you along a journey. Has a story for every component. Such a sick car. Original yet highly modified.

My wife has a 1986 monte ss hard top it's silver with gray interior all OG except the duel exhaust . And 68000 miles she has owned this car for 22 years looks great Dave

I think that is so cool! Funny thing is I was a mechanic back in the day and worked on many of these cars. They never blew my dress up back then but very few cars did. Now I appreciate the whole car and they bring back good memories. Thanks a bunch for the show even if you made me miss not being able to it.

Great looking Montie, brings me back to my youth, have fun with it and hopefully see ya on r.t 66✌️👍🇺🇲😎

Man, that year/body style Monte Carlo is such an awesome looking car! If you paint it stay white but maybe do gold accents & then gold wheels. But doesn't need to be painted, it look great as it is! Can't wait to see it cruising & also rippin' down the track! Super stoked for you, that's such a sweet car! Enjoy it man!

You did the SS right!!! Everything is state of the art top notch!!! I have an 87 SS too... Texas car... I call her Blackice... 383 stroker with a 700 behind it... This car is amazing!!! great job I can't wait to see it moving around...

Paint it Dave you can’t let Doc be the only one finished from head to toe but love the car period!

I've owned nine G body Elcaminos , and an 84 SS Monte Carlos, the under side of yours is the best I've ever seen!

Wow Dave that Monte SS is a work of art. I love the fact that everything works and functions correctly and fits so cleanly , totally impressed with your version of a true small tire street car . I've owned 6 Montes in the past none of which come close to your well engineered beast , gotta love them G Bodies

Awesome ride Dave can't wait to see you on TV with it.

Excited to see this one run ! It will definitely haul ass. Plus I think leave it just like it is paint wise .

Daddy Dave you rock! Love the ol Monte! It's beautiful the way it is! Peace

A real beauty there Dave! With all that adjustability underneath, you should lay some rubber straight down the middle of that track! Daddy Dave gonna get his fo sure!! 405!!!

That's a Baaaaad Bish!!! Luv it. HUGE G Body Fan. IMHO, keeping the OG paint, chrome, etc, just "feels" right Sir. Congratulations on building such a dream ride.

1:00 I was Very Disappointed when I found out You and Chuck were not going to Australia!! You Will Always Be The Baddest OG 405 Legend!! The Old Sonoma With Flames From 60ft through 660ft But It Wasn't Just the Truck. It's The Man Behind The Wheel! You Sir Are ONE BAD A DOUBLE SCRIBBLE DRIVER!

Like how they tried to keep the street car complete as they can on this build. Glad you didn't put some rolled sheet panels for doors an it's got some Original interior. Awesome car thank's for sharing. ProCharger look's like a very quick easy solution to some more power for sure. Really surprised you didn't heat wrap the headers.

Love how easy the doors close and the sound of the close.

Hell yes!! I love it.

I hate to see a nice car like this turned into a “race car” but honestly, I really like this car. It’s a thing of beauty Dave

BadAss. Can’t wait to see it run.

It was a good ride to start with and you turned it into a great car with everything you did.

I graduated in 1984 I remember when these cars came out I always wanted one big fan of these cars.

Awesome!!

RADICAL BUILD DAVE !! ALL THE RIGHT BELLS AND WHISTLES!!!! YOU GOTTA LOVE THE MONTE BODY STYLE. EXCELLENT JOB DAVE!!! PRIMO STREET MACHINE!!!!!!

Killer build nice ride man 👌🏼💯

That beauty looking luxurious over there nice whip Daddy David

Leave it alone! It’s a classic 👌

Beautifully built--as usual !!!!

leave it old school. had an 82 and a 84 when i was younger. wish i still had at least one of them still. awesome work. !!

Thank both of you.

Hell Yeah! I love Monte's, can't wait to hear this thing man! Hope you kick some ass in it bro!!

Love the Crowmod license plate on the wall. Shout out Big Chief!

SUPER BADASS BUILD DAVE!!!!!😎👍

Dave, it’s nice as hell. One of my favorite cars and body styles. I always have loved the 80-88 Cutlass with the 350 Rocket in them, these body style Montes were #2 them the Regals. The Black SS Montes were slick as hell. The white ones were my favorite though. Love the white with red and really like the chrome. It makes it. Just repaint it! You’ll be glad you did and just paint it back original. It will be immaculate and very very good looking car with those hammers! Fuckin love it man but you gotta paint it and do it white red and put all the chrome back in it. You’ll not regret it and never get rid of it…hell you may make you kids bury you in it! I would!!

Awesome car!!!!I'd leave the paint alone,its just that cool!

Clean n very nice Monte Dave

Love the content! "New" and "OG" are an oximoron.... Keep pushing the dream!

Just like the movies!!! Driving around in park!!!

Awesome ride Dave. I love Monte Carlos’s

Good shit Dave!

I remember seeing these and Grand Nationals when I was a kid. I always said I would get one when I was older. Maybe one day. Congrats on the car and all the awesome mods you've done.

I’m a MC guy. My very first car was an 83. Absolutely loved the car. Now I’m lookin for one to street myself but they r getting rather pricey. Love the car Dave great job on this build homie

The Monte is sweet! I'm a little jealous. I have an 80. If time and $ allow give it a fresh paint job. Bring it up to Empire Dragway next time you're in NY.

Hello Dave the Monte Carlo looks amazing

Very nice car you all have built

Hey Dave, very nice build. I know it's going to be a fun HOTROD.

I remember back in the summer of '85 when I was a paint & body guy at the local Chevrolet dealership and the transport truck rolled in during lunch time and it had nothing on it but SS Monte Carlo's and I was not only in love with the car but I also said that day that these things would make incredible street cars and as time started passing, we started to get the SSs in the shop about as quick as the salesmen we're selling them. Unfortunately, majority of them are like the Hell Cats are today and they were always running balls to the wall and when they lost control, the cars were totaled. We had one that needed every body panel replaced, frame straightened, roof replaced, transmission replaced cause it broke the case, busted the front seats , etc and the insurance company refused to total it because the guy bought it then wrecked it that night with less than 100 miles and the owner didn't want it fixed cause it would be never be right so we spent 3 months rebuilding the car and our bill to insurance was $500 more than a new one but insurance called the shots and said fix it so when it was done, the guy drove it around the block and refused it and next day the repo agent was there to pick it up cause the owner refused to make payments on it. It was a maroon model and was absolutely gorgeous both before the wreck and after it. I will find a nice one some day to fulfill my dream of having one. They e always been at top of my favorites list. I did have an 83 but it's not an SS. Anyways, beautiful car Dave!!

Really like they way it is!

Yep. You got all the kool stuff alright!!! Looks goid. Wish i had your money id have all the kool stuff too ! 😊

Very cool build DD
