Well I guess Ill put Old Blue in this one more time.

1982 Monte Carlo SC that I bought as a project when I was 17. Underwent a full frame off, added a 350, 200-4r swap, 3.73 posi rear. Its a factory A/C deleted car with buckets and all F41 suspension.





 
Well il enter why not. Mines a 79 malibu i actully got from my uncle who died a fews ago. He actully bought the car from a dealer ship in sometime between 1983 to 84 as basically a brand new car for $4000 i think not sure of the exact price. He owned the car untill he died where actully afterwards it sat in the garage for 3 years bone stock untill my aunt decided i could have it as i loved the car so much when i was a kid so then i proceeded to drive a car that sat from st louis almost 200 miles to highlandville where i live yes i had to drive to st louis with my dad so we could get our cars back home. It made it home i was so in love. But the 267 didnt lol. I saved my money bought a crate 350 it got me threw high school my buddys loved the car even though it was that chocolate brown color. My senior year of highschool i rolled the car off the road into a ditch and ruined it. But when the tow truck came and got it out of the ditch i started the car it still ran after being rolled. I knew since this car didnt give up on me i wont give up on it. I spent the next year on body work with a new front clip new doors new quarter panels frame was not bent alignment not hurt i primered it black then eventully painted flat black. The car was basically brand new again after replacing well everything lol. Then soon after i had money saved up we pulled then built the 350 up for more power. Then we painted her the pretty Dr Pepper red ive came to love today and still goin strong!

I cant upload any more pics right now due to weather but i hope her origin story makes up for that 🙂 🙂

Well, back in the running again . . my 110% bone-stock 1979 Calais. Granny-fresh when I got it, and I've put a whopping 1200 miles on it since I purchased it - 11 years ago!

Just under 48k original miles. Sagging headliner. Runs surprisingly peppy! One day I'll get a 403 or 455 built for it, probably black out the chrome, maybe. Definitely get better rims and better than the current 195/75R14 tires!
