My God this is a dream build. I was just GIVEN a mint 1896 regal with a 307 v8 from a old couple I do landscaping for. They signed the title over and said thank you for helping us. It's been garage kept and has 36k original miles. Runs perfect and has cold ac. Car is amazing factory but it's sooooo slow! Hopefully one day I can afford to do a ls swap and some decent wheels and tires. Everything is so expensive now days just to live it's hard for me to justify spending the money when I have a child to take care of right now. Beautiful work yall doing. I'm enjoying the channel
Wow! You weren't kidding about going in a more serious direction with the channel. This is like 2 orders of magnitude better quality! Camera work, transitions, music, and audio levels are on point! If you keep up the work, it's gonna blow up!
Nice build, dream car for sure..
My 1986 Buick Regal Limited had a 307 V8 with 140 hp. Overall it was a great car for a long trip. It was comfortable, got decent mpg, had a huge trunk, and a decent sound system. It only cost $13,900.00 new. It really lacked power and had a lot of minor issues.
Amen to this build!! and the start of the video!!. I'm glad they didn't powder coat the frame, brush strokes in the paint for life!!!
Very nice. You should consider notching the rear frame rails to make clearance for wider rear wheels/tires.
You know your stuff bro!! I been binge watching ya videos 😂😂😂 I like how you be describing what you’re doing and the parts. New subscriber!!!🔥🔥🔥
The G Body Shuffle
Lot of man hours on the frame but the results are going to be worth it. Great job Keep up the great work
Definitely enjoyed the video, please keep it coming. I have an 84 SS that I want to eventually frame off.
They actually made G Bodies from 81 to 87, cars titled as 1988s were 1987s that sold in 88. Nary a G Body was manufactured in the year of nineteen hundred and eighty eight.
i used the hellwig frame kit on mine too its great
Keep them videos coming!!! We miss them! LOL
The g body chassis truly dates back to 78 although it was marketed as the A body it was basically the same chassis.
A body for the first year only
A body was 1978-80. Even Wikipedia mislabeled it as 78-81 but if you look at the 81 cutlass it's the same as all of the 80s cutlasses aside from 1980. I owned an 81. For sure g body. G Bodies are 3 inches longer than A bodies.
Nice work on the frame and the photograph.
I have two questions did you coat inside of the boxed portion and was there a cost savings my not buying a new rolling chassis.
Yup GM used the A and the G body with the same chassis and underpinnings they did that for cutting manufacturing cost noticed that the pontiac grand prix door shares the same doors with the Monte Carlo and the Oldsmobile cutlass supreme door is the same as the Buick regal love those cars
very nice work.. i am sure you are proud
What kind of headers are those and where did u buy them
Awesome video!!! 🔥🔥
Very nice great job
What happen to part two bone on guys uou did such a good job we wanna see the finished ✅ project
Fantastic job!! I know its a bit unorthodox but u maybe thouht abt puttin a watts linkage underneather her?i see room is limited underneath too..
Hey, great video love the intro. I happen to own a 85 monte CL and want to know, what the thing that are holding the front shock top part in place under the hood I want to change them out for new one... 0:46 I use KYB shocks front and back also only has a sweet old original 305.
Great video
Good stuff.
literally everything i want to do with my 84 cutlass supreme
First off, SICK build man. I *LOVE* G body montes! Second, id love to know what song that was in the background starting at 3:50. I would like to use it in one of my pressure washing time lapse videos for my site!
I luv it what Belt size did you go with
Can you elaborate on the frame stiffing? Did you weld over all that paint you put on the frame? Did you get any distortion that made the body mounts not line up? Any tips you can give about your welding process? Did that frame kit add sufficient stiffness? Are you using solid metal body mounts? What kind of paint was the silver you put on and then the black? Why brush it on (looks ugly brushed) and not spray? What UMI components did you use? Did you use an UMI rear frame brace? Did you use a brace for the front frame fork? You did not put any details in the description and your website does not elaborate on this build.
Cool video
Now it’s time for you to have a caprice on the channel !!!
Nice setup what size long tubeheader 👍
Did the 4L80 require any modifications to the floor or firewall?
What headers did y’all use
What products were used for the coating? How does it stand up to powdercoating?
How much tunnel massaging was necessary for the 4L80-E to fit? I would prefer to go with that transmission if it doesn't require too much butchering.
I am subscribed with notifications anxiously awaiting the next vid
We are putting it on the dyno next week so once tuned up I'll have the video up in no time.
What alternator power steering pump and bracket are you using?
Lower control bolts must face the same direction.
Did you guys cut the body fit the 4l80?
I HAVE A 78 MONTE CARLO WITH A NEW LS3. WHAT AM I LOOKING AT TO REBUILD LIKE THAT
I have a 81 monte how much would it cost to get mines rebuild
What stage cam? And how much did you bore the engine?
Ypu did you go with a 4l80e transmission..did you put straight cut gears in it...if your under 1500hp you could be faster with a 4l60e..that 4l80e takes a lot more power just to turn it..and its heavier
What paint did you use for frame
I have a 1985 how much does something like this cost
How much would a build run ?
I have a 85 regal that i would like to have built like that, wat would be the cost, please respond. 🙏
i didnt realise how weak the frame is i always figured it was solid af
So how long does a build like this take
Holly long tube headers?
Howd yall reinforce rhe frame?
What headers are those?
I have a 78 cutlass in horrible shape. How much would you charge me?
Where is this shop at???
How much something like cost
🔥🏆💪
Is the rear end just the basic 9" G-Body rear end from quick performance with the gears?
Yes with the 4 Link and Viking Coilover upgrade. I believe it has 4.30 gears also
@@337speed nice!
Part 2?
Can you build me one like that. With a supercharger.
what products were used to coat the frame?
Carbomastic 615 epoxy-mastic primer with a enamel topcoat.
Prefer the 81 front end pazz on the ss front .
Y'all build the motor and transmission as well?????
Engine came already assembled, Forged 6.0L and Built 80E
How much would a job like this cost someone?
What oil Pan did you use
Holley
How much would a build like this normally cost?
$20k plus before paint and body. It’s going to be badass when it’s done, big wheels or drag pack it’s going to move out 💨
What water pump and upper radiator hose was used on this car
It’s a holly system I don’t recall the upper hose
I have a LS2 in a 1984 monte carlo ss and the upper radiator hose is from a 2007 corvette and it fits better than the upper radiator hose that it came with on the original 305 smallblock
