Donk lowrider chevy 
Авто/Мото
Bought a brand new powder blue (pastel) Monte Carlo Sport Coupe early 1979, right after my college graduation. It was such a great car, very good looking and drove so nicely. I think we paid $5200 for it, off the lot in Lincoln NE.
sounds like a memorable car & experience. Appreciate you sharing, MLD
Wow, what a beautiful car. 78-80 were the best years style wise to me
Couldn't agree more!
Wow, that is in amazing condition. Very cool, love the original survivors.
+RamblinAround Me too! The cloth interior is unreal, took me back to being a little kid in my Great-Aunt's Chevy.
Hopefully it doesn't get destroyed with hyrdos and a trunk full of batteries
Thank you for watching and commenting
Beautiful. I had a ‘78… miss it
Right on!
My first car was a 78 monte. All original Florida car...drove that car 4 hours to my parents cabin every weekend..never failed...that was between '96-2000...always used premium gas before it was expensive...the car is still in the family but A/C needs recharging and some other minor repairs but original motor still fires up after 43 years
Thats sweet that you were able to keep it in the family.
My very first car was a 79 Monte Carlo and it had about this many miles but it was only ten years old! I loved that car.
Great memories
That car is like a time capsule! I'm not a big 70's GM fan but that is quite a sharp-looking car! (I like it more now than I did when it was new...!)
Yeah exceptional ride
Had same car in 1979. Truly loved. Kept till 1987 and bought again. If I could fine one that nice would buy in a minute. 👍
Memorable
wow, how nice , my mother had one similar to this model,, when I was a kid,. it was her next new monte carlo, the wheel caps were more difderent. how nice,. love it.
I bought my 79 MC when you could actually pick your interior colors and upgrades using a glossy 8x11 book. Mine was black exterior with the oyster (lt.grey) vinyl seats and carpet. She was beautiful. Carburetor problems in '82, other than that it was a perfect car.
Nice, thanks for sharing Kim
79 was my first car in high school
Very cool,. thanks
Very nice condition well preserved monte carlo this is my father's favorite year 1979 I like it because the tail lights almost wrap around to the quarter panel
Good stuff David, appreciate you watching too
Beautiful ride
Yes it was!
Beautiful car great find I have the T top 79 myself..... The one thing always missing or tore off the car is the rubber Chrome stripping on the bumpers.... Last time I checked a few years ago some dealerships actually had brand new parts on their shelves for that part number.. Awesome video thanks for sharing 👍
My pleasure!
During the 1980s I had a silver 79 with t-tops and wire wheel covers. Loved it and wish I never sold it. (I remembered that I super-glued those rubber bumper strips so they wouldn’t fall off!)
Beautiful ... I own a 78 Monte Carlo and I wouldn't let it go for anything I love that damn car like family.
right
Jesus christ, that thing is in beautiful shape! nice ride!
Damn that was my first car,i'm about to cry
Glad I could bring up some memories, good I hope. Enjoy the channel.
Mine to exact color
Best 500 dollar I ever spent
Nice clean monte carlo reminds me of my old days i had lik 7 of this monte Carlos all different colors now i switch to buick regals
Appreciate you watching 👀
That car reminds me of my late grandma 1979 Chevy Monte Carlo and it's even the same blue. But her was more of the base model because it did not had a radio in it and plus she has the other wheels on it.
RIP thanks for sharing 👍
What a nice car. Just like my mom had growing up. She had the 305 in hers.
Appreciate you watching 👀
these body style monte Carlos have almost vanished, a great car, we had 79 in 1980, powder blue inside and out. was surprised years later when I learned the 82-88 was the same car with diff. sheet metal.
Turth
Damn probably one of the few ones left in that great off a shape
Really was, wonder where it is now
Wow! I have a 1980 and is a work in progress but this one is very nice. I hope mine's turns out like this.
nice! glad you enjoyed the video, appreciate you following Samspace81
Beautiful ❤️❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful car.
We agree!
These cars had a nice ride and feel to them.
Your welcome samspace81.
I had one exactly like it i mean Ditto best car i ever had i enjoyed that car!!
beautiful
Trunk had a good angle. My girl friends enjoyed it
awesome
My first car was a '78. Heavy engine, light rear-end and rear wheel drive. Very easy car to wreck, and I did several times. I drove it totaled for two years.
Oh no
man that's nice. I know it's gonna be on the high end. would be a nice car to have though
love the tunes
Thanks much for your viewership
I had a green 1978 Monte Carlo, good little car.
Absolutely. Appreciate you watching - SAM
Great find
Thanks for checking it out
WOW! Wonderfull!
Appreciate u much
I love that marina blue color. Had a 79 grand prix just like that.
Nice! Looks great on Vettes, Impalas, Camaros too. Thanks for watching, Chris
@@samspace81 , saw a 79 Bonneville same color a while back. Wish I had the money. Lol. A two door, also.
Nice ride
This Car is a legend
Appreciate it Ryan, thanks for following Samspace81. I love these old cars.
So easy to work on i had 79 buick regal loved that car
Right on
Very nice car 👍
+GasSubWild 8101 Cleanest Monte I've seen. Thanks for the comment!
Keep it. It will be worth a fortune. What a beaut.
Man I 👍 thanks for watching Samspace81 👀, Mike
I would like another one.
What an amazing car
Do u still have it?
Thanks for watching, long sold
It has been a pleasure watching this video... I owned a 1980 monte with a v6 and transformed it to a 350 4 bolt main monster 600 cfm edelbrock with intake manifold mid rise The last thing I did was put 373 gears on diff but I wish I would have put a posi unit on there because Even though my limited was rebuilt it was sometimes 2 tire fire. I was young and married and stupid so I sold it for $250.00 because it required electrical work due to headers burning ignition wire all the way into the fire wall. Mine was a midnight metallic blue with 15in wide wheels in the back and skinnies in the front. I wish I would have had bucket seats converted to stick shift and posi tract also maybe supercharged. I still dream of me driving that car. But seeing your video makes me feel so much better knowing I wasn’t the only one with the same vision 1980 hot rod monte
Good stuff, thanks for sharing. I'd love to see the car. Where is it today I wonder
Cleanest Monte Carlo
It really was, thanks for watching Samspace81, Ivan
I had 1 too on my youth years 79 Aqua green i believe that's the most common color that year.
@@samspace81 BEAUTIFUL CAR!! I got my two youngest kids (.....well not kids anymore....24 and 28 years old) a 1978 and a 1979. We have been selling parts from the GM 70s-80s cars since 1979. By the way, I noticed that your lower license plate pocket trim is missing from your car. If you need one you can contact us at (678) 887-6750 and I will send you one free of charge just to complete your Monte Carlo. Best Regards, Keith Burwell
Facebook: Mr. Keith's Auto Parts
It'd be cool to see a sequential turn signal kit for those tail lights
Would be trick
That is clean! Hope nobody turns it into a donk or lowrider. It's getting harder and harder to find ones clean and original like this.
haha very true would be hard to alter this one! Thanks for checking it out and enjoy the channel.
I just bought a 1 owner 65k ALL original Landau this year. Gold with cream top. Identical to my first car. It was a nightmare looking past all the hoopties.
79 monte are meant to be made into low riders ese 😂
I like both lol
Wow that takes me back mine was silver
What a great car
Since the video is already 5 years old, I am wondering if you still own this amazing Monte in such great condition and kept it original until today.
Right? I bet it is
Man, if only mine looked like that
I had just like that bought it in 84 fell apart in 90 just like even had the exact seats.
Very cool, thanks for sharing
Nice
Very nice
I am currently in the market for a nice, dependable daily driver. In my youth, I owned 2 of these. One with that lousy v6 they used to use and the other had the 305 v8 which was a WONDERFUL engine. What it the cash price for this car??
+Mike Hevalow Brent 972-203-0767
I had exactly the same Monte Carlo , year & color of 2 tone blue with the exception of the power windows and locks back in 1988 when I was 17 , I’m 48 now ; The motor I had in it was a 267 V8 ; Does that one have the same motor?
Hey Roger. Pretty sure this one was a 305. Thanks for following Samspace81
Is this car for sale
Nice time in life for a big block and rear end swap
Love it, great drag cars!
I wonder if it's sell up for sell??
Hey I'm in Galveston Texas I wonder if you are still selling this car.
I have one exactly like this and same color
Thats awesome, a keeper ride
WOW !!!
Appreciate your viewership
is it still up for sale?
Clean...
Thanks for checking it out
Clean
Clean 4 sure
Its missing the chrome tube trim
From the bumpers
Look exactly like my old pa 79
I still have the speaker grills
My engine was quite no valve train noise but also no power did craze burnout when you go 55 and tough in to reverse
Mine was a little nicer on outside
And one dent from in side of trunk were jack came Los e and banged into in side of trunk pushing dent out.
Also had dent in gas tank do to not enough ground clearance when off roading
Good eye Asd Asd. Appreciate you following Samspace81, love filming these old cars.
Wow, amazing is the car still up for sale? Can you at least tell me the price range its in or if it was sold what it was sold for?
+FUNKA CHEW You can reach Brent at FAST440, telephone 972-203-0767
😍😍
I noticed a lot ot times that many People Mistake the 1977 Monte Carlo as the 1977-78 Chrysler, Cordoba...even in some Magazines I have seen that many were talking about the Monte Carlo, but showed the Pictures of the Chrysler Cordoba.
Interesting
nice
So original. Thanks for the comment, subscribe and enjoy the channel man!
+samspace81 I love the 79 Monte Carlo one of my all time favorites
+samspace81 You're welcome
Beautiful I have a 78 what’s the difference between 78 and 79. Same body style lights and all. Other years you can see what changed. But beautiful car man she sweet
Right on
are you selling?
My mother had a 79 Monte Carlo sky blue an dark blue half vinly roof gourgous first got my license she let me drive it to school brand new all the teene bops was on me I'm lying saying it was mine until my mom drove me to school one day lol then the teene bops gave me the boot lol
Good stuff Wallace, appreciate you sharing that story & watching the Samspace81 classic car channel
I have a 78 Monte Carlo that is a lot cleaner than that and has the bumper fillers still in it and the frame rails have been All replaced in the back from the center of the wheel back Would you wanna buy it
How much? Where? Thanks Martin.
@@samspace81 8000 Why are you intrested
@@samspace81 Your mission the same little piece of Chrome I am where the Mark or plate goes
@@samspace81 And I still have all the Chrome in my bumpers I want 11 1st place trophies with my car best unrestored And only thing that I did very 1st show was put a pair of Spokes on it that was it
Were did u get the tail lights?
Not sure where you would score those, maybe Ecklers? Not sure if they do Monte Carlos now.
nothing about the engine compartment says 17k orig miles. very clean exterior though.
Cesar Flores
I thought the same thing. Very suspicious.
Beatyful car man. My Car GM Commodore Caravam year 1990 will always be with me, 6 cylinders still nothing against new cars now arriving with 3 (the cylinders were 4 before) In Brazil it is not possible to import a “good V8 barge real cars, you can, if you are a rich collector maney maney I will try a MONTE CARLO 1979 👑 if it arrives in my Territory, more difficulty to install the Low Rider, culture still being fostered.
Thanks so much for watching, great comment. Greetings from Wolfe City, Texas
I had a red 305 factory 4 speed one 👍
Sweeet, unusual being a stick. Hey thanks for subscribing
Nice there w err re not too many stick A or G bodys its very unique set up from the factory plus those manual cars were fitted with a lightweight aluminum trunk and or hood to save on weight
Gm made some oldsmobile cutlass supremes manual with a Chevrolet 305 and aluminum trunk and hood
@@DavidR-ub2dp And Also Buick Regal With The Pontiac 301.
this did not end up as a Training Day tribute and repainted
Lol 😆 🤣
luvit
Wish I kept it and ttop would have made me keep it
Get you one, thanks for following Samspace81, Asd Asd
Is this still available
No

Many years ago
I had to learn to work on cars some what cause my dad had a ford
repair at least daily.
Starter. Relay alt water pump battery.
So im I chev v8 allways
If I feel like walk I get in a ford
Blew up Toyota 67 thou
Rod tough block craziness
Never beat on or driven hard
Dealer serviced. Evertime we went in for service treat was a couple blew up 200678 camery
What kind of Ford? I've had just the opposite experience and those are all wear items anyways. Thanks for watching though
. 65 mustang broke after leaving dealer ship for the first time. bronco shaped 2nd in 2ft of snow 89 f150 starter alt battery relay fuel waterpumps fuel 2 tanks fuel pumps and fuel pump switch
Manifold all. Cracked up
Every thing else was all ways fine
4x4 was great had cheaper low and high. Had more traction in 2wd that a 4x4 toyata as my dad had to put in reverse so the toy did not hit us. We had to push him up the mountain than it got steeper
And my dad's truck started to spin and slip my dad said get out and lock the hubs so I can put it in 4 wheel drive! Every ford I was ever in broke down exp 2002 ford focus with the a z teck motor not the Dura trash 🗑
I only like GM s v8 stuff
I can blow up a Toyota. By just driving it softly must have A major problem
As. Could. Not get junk yard engine for it but the. V6. 2000 miles for 700 complete
This still available to purchase?
+Sammy L Give Brent a call at FAST440 in Forney, Texas 972-203-0767
Hi, is this beautiful monte carlo for sale?
No longer, sorry
has it been sold?
+Tsar Bomba Call Brent at FAST440 in Forney, Texas 972-203-0767
Is this car still available?
No it was sold on Ebay
What Kind Of Engine? 267? 305? It Didn't Look Like The 231 And I Don't Think The 350 Was Available.
You know more than I do about them I think it was a 305 most likely
That also isn't a lowrider, a lowrider is a car that has been lowered and has small tires on it. This has its factory wheels and ride height on it. Cars have never came from the factory a "lowrider", that is something done aftermarket.
Love the g bodys. Makes me sick to think of how many we beat the shit out of and destroyed in the 90s. Cant find em now, 3-500 dollars then, perfect for a punk
Those monties and cutlass and regals and the grand prix from 1978 to 1980 in those years they were still A bodies from 1981 till 87 88 they were the G body line up
@@DavidR-ub2dp true, all the front suspension and many other things are interchangeable with my 69 chevelle. I have an 88 monte and 69 chevelle parked next to each other in my garage. Love those cars
Thanks Alex & David for watching
Is this for sale?
Not in years
my grandpa had one like this, except it was black with gold pinstriping. In the early seventies, most of the Chrysler fuselage cars had those hood mounted turn signals that faced the driver, and he had taken a pair off of a 69 fury that he had had, and installed them on his 79 Monte. Kinda strange
How
No idea history
Is it for sale???
No sorry, this was several years ago now - SAM
Did someone purchase this brand new in 1979 then just park it forever? It’s in better shape than my 2018
Appreciate you watching
Is that a 305?
+Steve Holsten yes sir
I wish I could have bought this one or one like it in the same condition with the 305 v8. I would NOT alter it in ANY WAY!!! No low riders here, no air bags, just as it was when it rolls off the line and THAT is how it should stay. It should be a crime to destroy the remaining G Bodies into low riders. Etc.... Just leave it the hell alone
Great car
what is a DONK? how much you sell it for?
Keyword for big wheels, popular on these. I dont remember I videoed this years ago but thanks for watching Samspace81
Actually a DONK is a 71-76 caprice or impala
I hate the look of oversized wheels on these they look like baby toys
How much
I don't remember what it sold for sorry
How much for this car?
old video man, way before your comment sorry
Monte Carlo
Love it
