Wow that's a nice race car.

Music is dog shit

Beautiful car! Why the h*ll are we hearing a music score dubbed over them boys talking?

A friend of mines dad was a friend of Jr Johnsons, we would go visit the shop on Sunday afternoon. Meet Jr and he was a cool guy never put on airs just like being a a friends shop. One day a GM tech was there working on getting the sloped glass in the back of the car and he was asking Jr about us being there. Jr told him he trusted us more than he trusted him. Then told us the beer was free before asking my buddies dad if that's ok.

Great restoration ! (If my memory is correct, i'm almost certain that typical "short track" location of the "off/on & start" switches on the roll bar beside the driver was not allowed in Busch Series or Cup. All switches must be dash mounted. Probably was a mod by a previous owner for maybe their local track). I once owned an ex-Allison built/driven Malibu & his workmanship was impeccable.

I think Tim Richmond always got crapped on what a shame could of been better

Too bad the music was too loud to hear the dialogue

One sweet ride!

I don't care what they about Tim he was one of the best driver around

Would have been a great video if you would have turned the music off. I heard of the story and just found the video.

Back when NASCAR was enjoyed, had real drivers and teams… Just a Turd show today 👎

I love memorias of NASCAR a real race drivers from USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸 1940---2022

Bobby is a great person

Now that's a racecar

A North Carolina legend. Junior Johnson was one of a kind.

It's a Buick SKYLARK. The Apollo was the Oldsmobile version.

From an era where NASCAR racing was still worth a damn.

Switch the lights on.

The seventies and eighties had the best looking cars and paint jobs.

I had a 75 Buick skylark up till about 3 years ago same identical body style with a camel hump 327 automatic transmission and a stock rear end great running and sounding little car needed some rust repairs but nothing to bad I'd love to find a plastic model kit of this car but no luck the Chevy's Buicks Pontiacs and olds all were the same body style just cosmetic changes I wish that I hadn't had to sell my Buick but that's life I guess

👍

Pontiac Lives

I believe that's a Gran Prix not a LeMans that Tim drove

I know they were purpose built race cars but they still looked like a souped up car off the dealers lot . Something we no longer see.

Very Cool! (The music in the video is really annoying.)

A walk around of the car would have been nice..

Seems like the video was okay. didn't need no theme song.

My fav generation of NASCAR cars by far!

1986 out of 11 races Tim won 6 and finished 2nd 4 of the others and 3rd in the other one, no one has ever come close to doing that just tells you he was the real deal.

Now there's a NASCAR RACECAR, not this shit we have today! Sure wish that they would bring them back, (make them safe as the one they race now)it would boost NASCAR Ratings!!!!

One of these ran like crazy in the 1981 Daytona 500. One of the Allison's drove it.

Excellent job restoring that thing .I myself wish it had been. A 83thru 85 u don't like them areo dynamics band aid cars gm built putting the bubble in the back window to keep up with bill Elliott but that's jus my opion either way great job an who ever gave this a thumbs down is a real peice of shit how can you not love this its got everything from a bad asss car to junior Johnson

Junior Johnson greatest driver/owner in GRAND NATIONAL/NASCAR. He was friend to many

The square faucet naively carry because size peripherally push times a far ray. brainy, kindhearted almanac

Loved to old days of Winston Cup . Best Quote ever . Lost some races but never lost a Party !!!!!! Tim could out drive 99 % of these guys with his eyes closed .

Back when the CAR in NASCAR could actually be associated with what was on the track. I was fortunate enough to grow up while, for a few years still at least, you could walk into the dealership on Monday and buy the street version of the car that won on Sunday. Now they're all stamped, erector sets, that more resemble the space shuttle than a car.

Great video but the song volume should have been lower so you could hear the people talking better. Beautiful car with a great paint scheme.

I have never really liked the production versions of these cars like others seem to, however I've always thought that they made really awesome looking race cars.

It Rhine Enterprise...not ryan

Not a music video I'd rather listen to Junior Johnson

The music should have been louder. I could almost hear people talking

Shame NASCAR sold out its roots...

Why would you leave the music in the back ground when there talking?

It looks like a Vincent van Gogh....beautiful car!!

Great driver & great beer.

What a beautiful car

Those Monte Carlos were so damn fast, knew a lady in town who had a silver one with the big rear window... aerocoupe it was called, right ??? You'll never see cars like that ever again!!

Good video, I remember that car... that's when I first got into Tim Richmond when I first saw him race this car at Pocono in the mid 80s....

Never heard of a Buick "Apollo" before and I'm 52. Further research looks to me like it is basically a Nova with a cosmetic change.

I love hearing this great Man's life. He was so down to earth I wish I had known him. So interesting . Love his life stories and love the Racing life stories.❤
