I didn't seek this car out for any particular history, I just wanted a good solid roller to go vintage short track racing with. We uncovered the cars history after I had already told Jeff I would buy it. Funny how some things work out isn't it? Check out the @stapleton42extra channel to see the car getting wrapped!
Question, can You do something like a shop list while You go? Like how much You spent in individual parts (no need to for exact prices, just rough gide what someone need to spend on something like that) I'm from Europe and we don't have a nascar in here so I'm wondering if You need to spend kind off similar money on club racing in here or more/less. Great videos, I think You one of few, if not the only channel I watched almost every video You posted. Thanks!
as a lifetime NASCAR fan, the way you immerse yourself in every aspect of the sport, from the legends to the back wood small shops is incredible. I love the content, and lemme know if I can turn a wrench with you. I'm local. Good find bud
I love the Gen 4 cars, even the later Gen 4's that were "twisted sisters" with their wacky looking asymmetrical bodies. Those things tore up the intermediate tracks and made for some great racing. And despite the weird looks, they were still very sleek looking, sexy machines. The 3 generations of cars that followed them have all been ugly ducklings that I just can't warm up to.
Really enjoy seeing your progression on the channel and taking us all along your journey whether it be racing history or living out your dream and being genuine to everyone you meet along the way! I hope big things are coming for you guys and pumped to watch the busch car to return to its former glory with a twist
I am so thrilled for you. Having your own car and with the history it has. Looking forward to the Build and racing to come! Letting Logan to get on with her own car, Legend🙂
Congrats on the purchase, can’t wait to watch it transform into something even more special! Glad to see it back home in NC where it belongs. Love what you’re doing on the channel, keep it up, I’ll definitely keep watching!! BTW, the quarry vid was unbelievable as well!!
Very nice. I’m reliving my NASCAR experience via your channel. Prior to Pennzoil I was an Olds factory drag racer in Super Stock. Originally Pro Stock in 72
@@Stapleton42 Maybe Lajoy can make a foam insert like some teams use when they do a driver change? Might be hard for her to see with all the braces though - your seat might swallow her up.
Great show as always!! If you ever want to come up to New York and see what goes on with Northeast big block dirt modified racing we would love to have you guys as our guests!!!
Jeff Anton is a name I haven't heard in years! The East series came to my home track each year at Adirondack Speedway, as a kid it was incredible to see thse guys each year. In 2007 I watched Logano win at Adirondack in the last corner. If that car used to be Joey's short track car, there may be a possibility it has a win at Adirondack on it! Very cool video!
Super awesome, this! Being a 'euro' we don't get much NASCAR, but the last few years we have coverage. All the historic stuff on your channel is awesome to see for a car guy like me. Keep up the good work! Maybe you can get another UA-camr, like Bodevision to paint it for you?
I only am seeing this video today, but what an awesome surprise seeing my town's Drum Shop making an appearance at the 18:06 mark. Thank you for deciding to pull over there to give Granville MA some representation!
@Stapleton42 it's an amazing place with amazing history. Granville is a speck on the map, but the musicians who have purchased drums from this company are amazing. Paul McCartney, and Phil Collins are the two I always remember.
Welcome to the stock car/NASCAR owners club! Great to see you pick one up especially with some cool history. Definitely think a second car set up for road course is a good idea. We restore, preserve and race them here in Australia so good on you for having a crack at racing. Look forward to seeing your progress. Cheers, Richard
This is going to be so much fun to watch and learn all about these cars I fell in love with, I to love the road course Monte Carlo reminiscent of the early bud days #8 car! Thank you guys! I am so excited for you both!
This is going to be an epic build, knowing the history and now going to be "put back in service", now we know why you bought that funny looking block a few months ago. That engine in this chassis spells "FUN FUN FUN"😁
I'm proud of you brother! Always remember keep your head on strait and focus on your goal... Racing is a commitment to long nights and having the brains to figuring out how to do more with less. Live your dream man, build your car yourself.thats is the only way to truly understand what works and what doesn't for YOU.the cookie cutter mentality will not get you anywhere in our sport!!!!
Thanks man. I feel like I already lived the experience with the Escalade just now it is a different canvas lol. It is fun to have a fresh start with something new
Definitely go back and get that rc car. I thinks it’s awesome these cars are still around and available. Gonna have to post early about one of those races. I’ve only heard of Dillon running them once or twice.
Thanks for sharing. You we’re getting close to my old neighborhood. Cambridge Massachusetts. Growing up at a short track was amazing. Norwood Area was my home track 1/4 mile asphalt track. It was Also home track for Bobbie Hamilton he raced late models 1960’s track closed in 1972.
@@Stapleton42 years ago I did my own experiments with a old cup car super speedway boomtube. Did you ever get to finish your header and boomtube on the Monte? ua-cam.com/video/22-3a5HAHZ4/v-deo.html
I know it’s a little late commenting on here but would love to be able to do a project like this too, get a stock car and race it for fun, hope to be able to find one and do this too, you are an inspiration to the sport and to making dreams like this come true
Make sure that the back of both heads. Has a braided ground strap to the firewall where there will be continuity to the ignition board ground as the coil output to the spark plugs does not vanish into the heads. It has to get back to the ground side of the ignition control boxes. Failure to do that usually results in the negative side high voltage getting to the module grounds via the positive low voltage side letting the smoke out of the low voltage chips. Those chips blow out at 20 to 25 volts. 30kv thru them looses races. Why both heads. Shorten the spark return path.
Man! Totally excited for this new venture, it surely will add to your content , looking forward to watching the progress on this vintage car . You will learn tons from tearing into it !
An engine we wouldn’t expect you guys to put in there? Can’t be a bowtie block then! So stoked for you guys and I would love to come see you all at the track!
Huge congratulations from Newfoundland, Canada. I followed you 2 for a long time. You’ve worked tirelessly and now you get to reap the rewards. Here is a Newfoundland saying. “ long may your big jib draw” look it up when you have a minute to spare.
I was glad to see that you took the time to explore the old race shop rather than loading up your new car and heading for home without taking a little time for a tour.
Great video!!! I know that "tribute" 43 car definitely had a hand in this! Lmao!! It will awesome to see all the work that goes into getting an old Busch car ready to do what is was born to do: race!! Not sitting and wasting away!! I think a lot of "collectors" kind of have it backwards. These car were made to run not sit and collect dust. I'll be watching for sure!!!!
Mitchell this is fantastic!!!! Loving it “twisted sister” can’t wait to see her transformed!…il be watching your next video tomorrow! Keep up the brilliant work,keep living that dream for me 🤟🏻🏴
So cool to see you guys get your own race car to work with/on and maybe have some fun with it! Thankful and appreciative to you all for the great video content you always produce, and am there with you in all of this. Have been out of town here & there, so haven't looked at all recent videos, will get to them if I missed any! Thank you so much for another cool video!
Well I am sure that I have established once before that your video on Randy LaJoie from his business is what tip me over to preferring his racing seats over other racing seats such as butlerbuilt seats. (See just because I am older, doesn't mean I cannot be persuaded with the right presentation or argument on most things.)
@@Stapleton42 Well Randy did a excellent job on his presentation from my perspective. By showing me facta, history on why his product is going to be the way a person should go. Especially the emphasis on safety, which is an individual's responsibility alone. It most definitely goes along ways when it is not the regular sales pitch that is coming out of someone's mouth.
This is awesome! Glad your finally getting a car. Id definitely say if you can get a road course car and a circle track, you will have a blast! Can't wait for more content of builds and racing.. congrats bro, makes me wanna buy a late model.
Have you tried to do a shop tour with Maurice’s boys , the Petty boys ? Ritchie, Mark, and Tim ? I know they have their own UA-cam stuff, but these dudes hold a lot of cool history , that your viewers would love!
Welcome to new England we got Thomson speed way circle track with a new road course also, and if you make your way to New Hampshire we have New England dragway so you get the best of both worlds
I’m building an 07 Kyle bush Toyota nascar truck. Been watching a lot of your videos and seeing you take this one apart is extremely helpful with where certain things go.
Buy the road course car. About 40 minutes north of Danbury where you went through is Limerock. I live minutes away. Lots of racing support here in Northeast. In the early 80’s I did a bunch of long distance bicycle riding, my route to Watkins Glen to watch races took me by Bodines shop near Chemung. They had all kinds of cool race cars parked all over. Watched Geoff win at Lancaster Speedway outside Buffalo where I grew up. Good luck with the new ride.
I love the attention to detail you cover in your videos. You should try to get to the prairie dirt classic in Fairbury IL. It's one of the best dirt track races of the year. I think you would really get a great video out of it. I'm sure there are some local race teams that would let you come to their shop. If you can't find anyone. I have someone who is a 3rd generation driver. I know he would do it for sure.
Man I miss these old race cars. Racing was so much better than the IROC stuff we got going on now. Looked for the wrap video on the other channel, but didn't see it?? Great channel keep up the good work!!!!
I think you should get the road race car so you could do it in Kevin Harvick colors but do your "SAW" Logo right across the hood of the car. Then we can put the number 42 on the sides. But try it out in the Kevin Harvick colors first. Or do the Kevin Harvick look on a wrap and then wrap the car after you sandblast it all the way down to bare metal then primer the car to stick.
Congrats on the 2nd Monte !. It's time for you to 'Specialize' and become 'The Monte Carlo Guy' by adding a 3rd which should be a G-Body Monte SS as a drag build.
Today I learned that I wouldn't recognize Randy Lajoie if I ran him over 😂 Excited to watch your progress on this car. As an SCCA fan it was cool to see that B-Prod Corvette and Jeff's super Miatas!
Blaise Alexander is a set of dealerships right up the road from me. Blaise Jr raced and was a driver in arca and was killed in a wreck during a race. Our towns were definitely wanting him to make it to the big leagues and were hurt when he was killed. Can’t thank you enough for showing all this kind of stuff
In 2012, I purchased a motor home from a dealer here in South jersey. I knew the owner of the dealership from street racing in the 80's & he eventually raced ARCA. So when I was closing the deal, he asked if I'd help him off load a race car he bought. He opened the trailer & there sat a blue & silver Ford . I said "why does this car look familiar?" Turns out it was the CitiFinancial car that Carl Edwards raced & won at Montreal road course. It was so cool to touch that car!
I didn't seek this car out for any particular history, I just wanted a good solid roller to go vintage short track racing with. We uncovered the cars history after I had already told Jeff I would buy it. Funny how some things work out isn't it?

I love that this is prefaced correctly with 'first'. You know there ain't just gonna be one in the fleet!
Exactly!!
Should go back for that road setup car.
😎
I love the Gen 4 cars, even the later Gen 4's that were "twisted sisters" with their wacky looking asymmetrical bodies. Those things tore up the intermediate tracks and made for some great racing. And despite the weird looks, they were still very sleek looking, sexy machines. The 3 generations of cars that followed them have all been ugly ducklings that I just can't warm up to.
This one is absolutely twisted. I think it’ll be more apparent once the body is finished and all one color 😂
Yep just looking at the rear window you can see she's twisted
Oh, this is the kind of video I live for. I love these old gen 4 cars.
Me too!
Passing through the lovely yet extremely overtaxed state of Connecticut. Lol
We have some beautiful back roads and towns though
Very cool you bought a race.
The rock quarry video was amazing too!!!
Thank you Clay 💪🏼
I cannot wait to go on this journey with you guys!! Hope to get my own someday and join this amazing community!!!!

I'm excited to watch you bring this car back to life, going to be awsome video series!!!! Cheers from 🇨🇦
thank you Spencer!
I love that Brad Coleman Carino's back piece, so cool. I hope in the near future, I'll be able to buy my own stock car and race it.
Lots said about the car. You get to drive it. Awesome.
That’s what I’m looking forward to seeing it on a track.

Definitely seems like a good idea from my perspective, since you have been covering Nascar history for a while now.
Us going racing with this car will be the perfect blend of history with wrenching videos
@@Stapleton42 exactly
Really looking forward to videos about the car. You need two, so you can both run trackdays!
I agree. We will have to get a tiny seat in here for Logan to run a test session at Little Rock

My guess on the engine is a sbf. Something we wouldn't think you would do or possibly a sb mopar engine
Those MSD ignition spark boxes, you can send them to the factory and they test and rebuild them for like $75.00 each.

YES, you should absolutely go back and get the road race car!
I got nothing against circle track but, a road race car is just a lot more versatile...
I agree. Gotta have both
Blaise Alexander is a set of dealerships right up the road from me. Blaise Jr raced and was a driver in arca and was killed in a wreck during a race. Our towns were definitely wanting him to make it to the big leagues and were hurt when he was killed. Can’t thank you enough for showing all this kind of stuff
Thanks man!!
@@Stapleton42 absolutely brother! If ya ever come to central PA there’s a nice old school dirt track I’d be happy to show ya
In 2012, I purchased a motor home from a dealer here in South jersey. I knew the owner of the dealership from street racing in the 80's & he eventually raced ARCA. So when I was closing the deal, he asked if I'd help him off load a race car he bought. He opened the trailer & there sat a blue & silver Ford . I said "why does this car look familiar?" Turns out it was the CitiFinancial car that Carl Edwards raced & won at Montreal road course. It was so cool to touch that car!
Awesome!
That's an awesome new toy you got there! Will be looking forward to future videos on this one.
Thanks man!
