here few pics of my daily driver gbody 1986 monte carlo for about 3 years now. has stock 305 5.0 liter v8 with 4 barrel carb all original, 148,*** miles,all bone stock I just put single flowmaster exhaust with cat,& I repainted and reupholstered interior and top myself to original look. 4speed automatic overdrive transmission. My futre project im planning on either converting it into a luxury sport, or a SS clone with flat black paint with olds hurst color combo but satin colors, and dropping a 383 stroker in it.. below I posted a pic of how id like it to look but I will paint the grill and headlight and fog light inserts gloss black, and red and silver lines gloss as well, with either SS monte carlo wheels painted black with red or silver lip or 22" inch irocs black. and id shoot for a manual trans..

Those are some interesting hubcaps. Are those stock? I don't see many Sport Coupes but I only knew of the "wire wheel" hubcaps.

yes they are stock I myself prefer the wire monte carlo hub caps or SS wheels or stock Monte rally wheels, but I haven't came across any yet. I believe these style hub caps are more common with the basic model sport coupes, the checker alloy, wire hubs, or MC rally wheels are more common with the landau, luxury sport, or the 86.87,88 luxury sport CL models. mine is the basic model no options, manual windows, locks, seat, full bench seat not pillow top or split bench seat electric there harder to find but I don't really like them I prefer wire caps all day.

Beautiful! I agree on leaving it stock, WAY too nice to start hot rodding. Maybe find another one to mod, and just cruise that one!
