      Love the channel.. Great builds. This Monti Carlo deserves a True Race Car Paint Workme Upper.. its a surviver. The universal Rally Wheels are very disappointing.. A Wrap on a Vintage Chevy? Be true to her. She deserves way much more. Love the channel. Straight BowTie hear. Love the K10 s. C10s videos gettem goings. Even Love the Fseries gettem going.

Just want to remind some youngster if ya don't have the money to fix it right , just wait till yer next paycheck to do it right. You waited all thus time and put in a ton of work on yer ride, it's worth waiting another week to get it right

    You made me cry at the end. The amount of work you put in to this is insane and you still keep doing it. I can’t even imagine the passion you have to do this every day for hours on end, when everyone is sleeping, those lonely quiet hours. I don’t know if you even sleep anymore. Just thank you Mr. Bieri for the immense joy you share, the humor, and hard work. I’ve been around classic cars here in the motor city but it just seems like it’s always an out of reach goal to have one of my own, an unneeded expense I couldn’t burden. You made me realize a classic car doesn’t have to be a show be a show piece and a little shine juice can perk a oldie into a goodie. Thank you sir. I can’t wait to find a revival and bring it new life in the near future.

I think some kind of flush-mount LED lights (amber for front/ red for rear) to fill-in all those empty bumper holes from the rubbers. It would look cool at night for some extra safety and bling. Then maybe spiff-up the interior a bit since it seems to be a keeper and enjoy it everyday!

Goin to the junk yard with him often and teaching me some engine basics. Thank you for including and sharing your family with us all. I know my grandpa would’ve loved your videos, too.

    Amazing car Derek!! I had a 74 Monte Carlo back in high school. I loaned it to my brother one weekend. He and his girlfriend were going extremely fast and blew both front tires and were both killed on impact. Since then I have hated the 74 Monte Carlo until now. I love the car and I am glad you did the tribute to your family!! Much respect from a Texas feller!!!!!

It’s folks like yourself and your family that makes serving this country and if necessary dying for this country worth it. Keep up the great work and originality! You’re my all time favorite star! Nothing in Hollywood compares to you and your contributions to the real world!
