I bought this car new in the winter of 1986. As my daily driver for the next 5 years it stayed mostly stock, then started going through some changes as I changed. First with some basic engine modifications then the addition of a 2 stage NOS cheater kit set to 250HP. This was in my younger reckless days when street racing was very common on the backroads of Fresno CA. When my job brought me back to my home town in NY and not wanting to subject the car to the harsh New England winters I decided to take the car to the next level with a Pro-Touring theme. The work began in 2001 with stripping the body and interior and getting it ready for new paint. In 2003 we laid down multiple coats of Corvette bright white followed by lettering and clear coat.

The original interior with the 60/40 front bench seat was recovered in a custom Grey/Black scheme with the familiar Chevy heartbeat embroidered in the upper door panels. All the while this work was progressing I was purchasing the engine parts to build my dream motor. I was able to complete the body and interior then start on the suspension. Once the suspension work was completed it was time to get serious and finish the engine and Drivetrain. I was able to complete the parts list and the build was underway. What you see in the pictures here is the end result, A 507hp, 609 ft/lb 6 speed Monte Carlo SS.
