1964 Impala Posted February 13, 2022 Posted February 13, 2022 Just finished the build on this 1986 Monte Carlo. It is built to replicate my uncle’s high school car. This car was repainted by my grandpa while he was in high school, hence the reason there are no SS stripes. The rims are off of a 1970 Camaro Z-28 and are painted body color. Big thanks to Leica007 for supplying them. Overall this is one of my better paint jobs and I’m very pleased with how it turned out. Thanks, TR 2

espo Posted February 13, 2022 Posted February 13, 2022 Great looking recreation. These do look a lot cleaner without the stripes. I had a new '86 Monte SS in white and used a hair dryer to remove all the stripes the first week we had it. I like the wheels your uncle used and having them painted to match.
happy grumpy Posted February 13, 2022 Posted February 13, 2022 Great replica. It has a sleeper look. Nice color too.
bogger44 Posted February 14, 2022 Posted February 14, 2022 Nice job replicating it. Your Uncle had a good eye adding the Z/28 wheels, they suit the Monte well.
slusher Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 Very sharp! Wanted one of these so bad when I was 20…
spencer1984 Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 Looks great, I had a blue '84 back in the day.
