This is my dads new toy going into his retirement! 1985 Chevy Monte Carlo. We’ve always been an Earnhardt House so when my dad sent me the picture of this car I knew it fit him perfect!

We need more info on this build! There is a whole group of us with these tribute cars as Jim Boyle commented. To see what you can do with these cars check out the video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hcWmgZyF1Juxm4U.html

This is a Street Legal Stock Car Tribute. That doesn’t make it a fake. And as for wether it’s a build or not… it’s not stock so it has been modified to suit the owner.

Well, you obviously don’t follow my Instagram to see all the motor work, trans work, rear end, interior we’ve done and for how long you’ve been commenting on these posts it sure looks like you’re jealous and obsessed so god bless.

Love Monte Carlo :) I had a 1978 Monte Carlo from Al Unser Jr. Chevrolet. Had the upgraded suspension package, wide rally rims, and a 305. But it looked like a stock Monte Carlo car, not a Monte Carlo stock car. :) Congrats to your dad! :)

A 350 might drop pretty easily. Maybe mounts but you will need heavier springs. At least. My cousin bought my cutless. Pulled the six and had to change them. Still roadwalked a little. Just sayn start there

Instead of the super t-10 4 speed or the 700R4pop a 5 speed T5 in it and if you can find one key word being if get a RPO G92 rear axle out of an 88-90 1LE IROCZ or if you cant find one,grab there rear axle from a 9C1 Highway Patrol edition Z28. that would give you a fun axle ratio and still be a good highway cruiser plus it would have rear disc brakes. great looking car btw but that is the way i would go if were mine...

I'm not sure what their called but on tge spoiler back in the day they also had small bars that was attacked also. The side mirrors are also on the inside of the car. I have a helmet w/ fake mic ( Replica) that Dale would've wore for raceing back then with the open face. You can also find the fire suits for a decent price online. Yes you can drop a bigger motor in it. Contact me on ig under Dawgg865.

Actually man if you just take the plastic pannels off and leave the inner doors bare that's how a stockcar looks even my legit 1980s montel Carlo body has the exact stampings from GM on the door pannels and floor board is a stock 80s metric car floor pan just gut the interior and that's it

I have the exact car and did same thing I race asphalt oval track and turned mine into a street legal looking 80s cups car and mine is fkenn up like dale srs as well. I used tons of circle track parts and stuff and mine looks identical to a cup car body and all cuse my body is a legit old cup car body I bought off of someone it's a 1980s Monte Carlo cup body I took off of a old banjo Mathews chassis the chassis was shot so I put the body on my old 1990s asphalt super latemodel chassis. If you lower this just go buy some surcel track racing springs they are cheep and you can get any size. And why stick on hold pins man that's not real
