I stumbled on this video. Thanks for posting! I had a 79 Monte back in the 80s that I loved. Looking forward to following your restoration of your 78 and 79.
Keep up the great work and videos, I had a 78 midnight blue Monte and I sold it and regretted it for years. Now I have a black 79 these G bodies are one of a kind head-turners. Much respect from Modesto Califas ✊🏽
1st off nice find . I wouldn’t pass that up either . Looking to acquire one also in the near future , if either the 78 or this up for sale shoot me a message I’m also in Fonta
Dope shit dawg, u beat me to it bro I was gonna go see that Monte and the guy selling said he had someone going to see it last week, but good shit g congrats
@@StillStandingGarage by the way I'm working on my 76 chevy caprice I'm trying to do the jale for it myself bro but still learning from ur videos, it has a lot of rust I'm not sure if I should completely gut it out to the chasee or peice by peice. I would like to show u some pics see what u would recomend
Thank you! That's why I jumped on it, nowadays these g bodys have some work done to them already. This one is all og. It has some minor changes the previous owner did but very minimal.
I would say to check if the cable that comes down from the dash is stuck on the column. The cable is connected to the dash and it's supposed to be connected to the column shifter. Either it's stuck or it's on too tight.
@@StillStandingGarage 4-8g for a non runner with that rusted window trim man oh man everything is high in CA isn’t it. 20 yrs ago I bought a 78 and drove it home for $500. Didn’t have it long enough got impounded (no tags)
Yep that's the pricing for these around here... the pricing on these are going pretty high in my opinion too... I bought my 78 in '04 for around the same price you bought yours... it's the demand for these that's increasing... you should see how much the parts go for 😳
@@StillStandingGarage nice my plan is the red mc first then get the blue one moving under own power then want to get my supra done then will go back to finish the blue MC

I just got a 79 the column shifter stuck any ideas?
I would say to check if the cable that comes down from the dash is stuck on the column. The cable is connected to the dash and it's supposed to be connected to the column shifter. Either it's stuck or it's on too tight.
What are solid cars like this going for$ in so cal. Here in Indiana it would be rusted out
Something solid will range from 4k to 8k depending on what car it is... Also, this is pricing for a "project" condition

Training day!!!!!
💯💯
78 comes first then 79 then 83. or 78 then 83 then 79
I'm not sure yet... maybe my 83 next 🤔 been dying to drive that one too
@@StillStandingGarage nice my plan is the red mc first then get the blue one moving under own power then want to get my supra done then will go back to finish the blue MC
@@thamontgomeryz We both have a lot of work ahead of us lol
@@StillStandingGarage ain't that the truth
How much did you pay for this car? I wanna know more less what would be the cost for a car like this in this condition.. please get back to me.
A G-body in this condition ranges between 3k to 6k
Cuanto pagaste x el
How come u bought another one
It was an opportunity I couldn't pass up
Are you look you sell it
This one is not for sale
What makes it a g-body I’m not to familiar with the Monte Carlo
GM designated the 78-88s midsized rwd cars as the G platform... G Body
I thought the 78 was an (a body
The A body was up 77
Makes sense thanks btw I enjoy following your progress from the UK
Thank you 🙏
