I could of picked up a one owner yellow CV6 Monaro S2 auto for $6250 OBO in 2019 in QLD private, 87K's aye aye aye, hindsight ALWAYS BLOODY 20/20, had the cash available to put a nice exhaust on it & just have it as a weekend cruising car for a couple years too. Freaking Tovid!
I was 12 in 2002 when they came out. Always loved them. Thought they were the perfect homage to the original. This one is no exception. Brilliant work 👍🏼
Just stumbled across this video while looking at Monaro vids. I'm actually the new proud owner of this weapon! I pick it up on Monday! Thank you for all your brilliant work on the car.
@@MindieJ If you find a VASS certified engineer in VIC who will pass turbo LS' make sure you hit me up. Otherwise I'm gonna have to weld the bonnet shut.
Im a big fan of the later gen of the CV8Zds and the later gen of the VZ GTO. I stll remember when the very first tv add came out for the new look Monaro and there solgan game over good memories
I worked on the production line at Elizabeth when they first bought the very first pilot cars down the line to test all of the tooling. The first ever one to come down the line was a silver supercharged V6, just a pilot, not for sale but I remember it clearly.
Love the v2 Monaros. Brings back a lot of memories, that’s when I was doing my trade at Holden. Best place I’ve ever worked, the boys there and what we used to get up to, great times. Although they had a few issues, I’d still buy one tomorrow if they weren’t priced crazy. That’s my favourite colour in them too, got to drive a lot of them so that’s probably as close as I’ll get to one now haha
can still get them cheap if you look in the right places, i got my current monaro for a lot less than the others are asking and only has 115k kms. none of them on carsales are selling over 35k they just sit there
Monaro's are my absolute favourite Holden / HSV. So smooth. Although, I prefer the clean original shape rather than the VZ version or the HSV versions which ruin the shape for me. In the Sedans, I think the HSVs look better though.
Nice car and I really like the interior, it looks mint 👌 But… just in my opinion the wheels look a bit out of place, maybe a bit smaller diameter. I’m going to buy a ticket…
Yeah like the vl their giving away, it's on 20s ,just doesn't look right and the ride would be horrible, if I win it I'm going down to 18s ,will look better and ride better 👌
I don't mind the ol Munroe, always outa reach unfortunately. I like the vz ones in the smurf blue 👌 or with the gto look. I've got 6 entries in for tuff streeters vl Calais already which would be awesome to win but win or not I'll enter for the Munroe too lol Also entered the kir hks gtr giveaway ,now that'd be fn sick 👌 Probably sell the vn then, tip for new players don't turbo a v6 it's a nightmare, rip it out n go barra, rb or jz or ls lol
Did you build the white VL calais that's up for grabs now from Tuff streeters? I'm in that draw and am going to win it 💪then we can see how fast that Monaro really is
It goes to charity I believe + they're not greedy sobs like Lmct or the like. The lower entry no.s give better chances of winning, 1 in 4k shot , beats the 1 in 30 odd million chance winning the Lmct ones. Better chance winning the Lotto tbh 😂
The maths does add up, 4000 entrants/tickets @$30 a ticket =$120,000? This car would be no where near $120,000 to build? Plus the values put on some of the cars are not nearly accurate, either way great way to have a fighting chance at winning your dream car! Great stuff! 👌👌
I always remember seeing yellow monaro’s as a kid never really seen other colours 😂
Because it's the hero colour
He is confused. This colour wasn't the motor show colour. It was a different blue 🤦♂️

@@gt3rs905 I literally have a photo of this blue one on the Holden stand, but yes please tell me what I saw with my own eyes 😂
@@MindieJwhat colour is it

Haha enjoy mate, I hear that it may be coming back to us to remove the turbo kit for RWC purposes??

Love the CV8 Monaro, probably the best shape commodore Holden ever made.
This content is cool if you’re building these things, good variety
It's a 2 door VT/VX

Thanks, brilliant vehicle. I was not a fan when they first came out. But now the style is really appealing. Cheers

@@kevinobrien4155 I’ll be in the market for something soon so I’ll keep an eye out. Not sure the wife will be happy but meh 🤷♂️ lol
@@bentonedwards7056 just get a monaro, they look great in the garage also 😂
@@bentonedwards7056 do what you want bro, you only get 1 life 👍
These cars, in my opinion, as a 16 year old look very clean and well built if done up properly, which mostly they are built pretty clean.
I love them in the red.
id kill for a GTS version. sooooooooo hotttt.
i also used to have the yellow one from the tv commercial on my bed spread when i was a kid 😂
i had the same bed spread haha
Something about a turbo LS which is just cool. Little bit harder to setup than a positive displacement supercharger, but still neat.
I loved the light blue killer car
Winner winner chicken dinner. Will be doing a similar setup on my vz ss very soon. Love your work mate!
I wanna see Troy take this for a spin 😂
Gotta love a Monaro😍
Great video love it I remember seeing it in a show room brand new when I was a kid 😅
beautiful car 👍
The very first second into the video I was like "get rid of that tow bar" 😀
Love a Monaro! 😍

U must love going to work with the kind of cars u get to see
Walkies for the bin though surely, but i reckon yellow's the best colour for monaro's
Very nice car !
Cushions stitch not diamond but honestly dream car
Should enter the giveaway then
@@MindieJ alright have entered 4 times
Only 450rwkw on e85? I would have thought closer to 500rwkw. My monaro makes 410rwkw on 98.
Delft blue is the colour.
i think they look better with the fluted bonnet like the VZ had
Pity we can't enter Tuff streeters in SA🤷♂️, this is a nice one!
It’s a sign to move states
Needs less feral wheels and some decent tyres
Colour combo is perfect.
You’re a feral
Pretty sure eboost always start on lowest setting after the car off
Correct
What’s the wheel size and back spacing?
Nice car and I really like the interior, it looks mint 👌
But… just in my opinion the wheels look a bit out of place, maybe a bit smaller diameter.
I’m going to buy a ticket…
Yeah like the vl their giving away, it's on 20s ,just doesn't look right and the ride would be horrible, if I win it I'm going down to 18s ,will look better and ride better 👌
Looks like the same colour as my old vy maloo ute delft blue
Delft blue is tge best colour
Get a quad lock there mounts are the best
How did they marry the coulsons to the factory seats?
After market foams on factory base&back frames most likely
No idea we didn’t build it
I don't mind the ol Munroe, always outa reach unfortunately.
I like the vz ones in the smurf blue 👌 or with the gto look.
I've got 6 entries in for tuff streeters vl Calais already which would be awesome to win but win or not I'll enter for the Munroe too lol

Put it on sp2 you big girl
Did you build the white VL calais that's up for grabs now from Tuff streeters? I'm in that draw and am going to win it 💪then we can see how fast that Monaro really is
Yes we built that car, engine bay repaint, rebuilt the motor, full hot side, ECU/Loom, manual swap and tuned all by us
@@MindieJ legends! It looks like one fine machine job done well. How does it drive, epic? Was born in 87.. that car would fit me well
@@MindieJ what injectors is it running. Do you remember?
Yeah sorry but that's my vl 😜🤣
Nah good luck man 👍
I plan on ditching the 20" stars for 18" ones if I win it 👌
hell yeah
Just commenting so you get more money for working on the vl chriso 👍🏽
Hahahaha appreciate it mate
Sounds tuff
Tuff streeters give away coming up
did this car get given away yet??
Got given away a week after this video
You stroking that seat was so sexual ❤ need to get a black power steering res asap for the dardnaro
It has a brand new genuine one
@@MindieJust stands out too much imo
Sounds like you favor this car because it's from where you work. Everything you don't like you like.
Ok sorry, I actually hate it and was just desperate for a vid, YOU GOT ME!
Nice towcar?
Wheel specs? 😮
No idea sorry
I still don't get how the tuff Streeters make any money when they cap their entries... The numbers don't seem to ad up 🤔
But, who knows
4000 entrants not 4000 tickets
It goes to charity I believe + they're not greedy sobs like Lmct or the like.
The lower entry no.s give better chances of winning, 1 in 4k shot , beats the 1 in 30 odd million chance winning the Lmct ones.
Better chance winning the Lotto tbh 😂
The maths does add up, 4000 entrants/tickets @$30 a ticket =$120,000? This car would be no where near $120,000 to build? Plus the values put on some of the cars are not nearly accurate, either way great way to have a fighting chance at winning your dream car! Great stuff! 👌👌
Anyone in here know what wheels those are?
20” Walkinshaw wheels
The link?
Literally the only thing written in this videos description
@@MindieJ my bad lolz 😂
@@MindieJ like your vids keep it up 👍🏼
I think that is Delft Blue 😬
That ain't much hp considering its a v8. You get more hp out of a smaller motor with a turbo. Maybe more torque thats about it
Yeh it’s pretty crap
