1985 Chevy Monte Carlo - The Best of the G-Bodies

Real Ridez traveled to Outer Banks, NC, to interview Michael Tillett, owner of a SEMA worthy 1985 Chevy Monte Carlo. And when we say “SEMA worthy”, we mean it-the car has actually been on display at SEMA in 2013.
Mike originally purchased the Monte Carlo with 47k miles, intending to use it as a daily driver. As the years went on, so did the miles. Things broke. That’s when Mike decided if he was going to put money into fixing the car, he was going to do it right.
As a little boy, he always wanted a car that was in a magazine. With a limited budget, Mike knew it would take years to complete his show car build. To top it off, this isn’t an ordinary restoration. Mike built the Monte Carlo the way he felt the factory should have always built it, with a V6 power plant out of a Grand National, a Hurst Lightning Rod shifter, and other design choices, Mike combined the best of GM’s G-Bodies.
After 10 years, he debuted his masterpiece to the world at SEMA in Las Vegas, Nevada. This was a dream come true; not everyone gets a spot at the world’s largest aftermarket automotive show. It requires a lot of work and investments. That’s where something special happened. Friends and family, along with local businesses throughout the Outer Banks, came together to complete the build and sent Mike to debut it at SEMA in 2013. After ten years, Mike’s dream came true.
Today, the award-winning Monte Carlo has graced multiple magazines, television shows, and, of course, SEMA.
Realizing his dreams would have not been possible without the help of the community, he works with close friends on several local fundraisers, youth programs, and travels across the country, enlisting his beautiful g-body in shows while being an ambassador for the Outer Banks.
Every year, Mike and his friends host the OBX Rod and Customs Festival
“It’s not my car, it’s an Outer Banks car,” said Mike.

So proud to call this amazing man my uncle ❤️ Thank you for sharing this story and providing an avenue for him to tell people the history behind this car. Most people just see the finished product but don’t understand the dedication and hard work that goes behind it. He has dedicated many years of his life to this and the support from the community, friends and family to get to this point is truly, truly remarkable. Amazing story, amazing man, amazing car. This is all the indication to always follow your dreams!!

Growing up, one of my grandmothers had a Monte Carlo, and the other had a Buick Regal. When I was in high school, one of the adult counselors in my church youth group had a Monte Carlo SS, one buddy's mom had a Cutlass 442, and another buddy's dad had a Grand National. After school, I dated a girl with a Pontiac Grand Prix. I still LOVE those old G bodies!

[@RealRidez]

So cool growing up around those cars. Definitely an iconic era for GM! G bodies still look great in the road today! Thanks for watching and sharing your story!

I have a 1986 MCSS hibernating in the garage for the winter. It's been in shop jail most of its life. Finally back and ready for the spring. 69k miles on the body, 3k miles on the new motor.

[@aaronmccall3849]

I can't add anymore to all the comments about this awesome Monte Carlo. Just a phenomenal job. On a side note, a lot gets said about what GM "should" have done with these cars power plant wise. People don't understand the politics involved when it comes to building something at GM that could challenge the Corvette in terms of speed. Its basically what killed the Grand National.

[@RealRidez]

Thanks for watching Aaron! Great point on GM politics. Regardless of decisions in a GM board room, we think Mike nailed it dropping the GNX into the Carlo. I hope you enjoyed watching the video and that you have a chance to check out some of our other features. Until next time!

I've long said Chevrolet should have single turbo charged and intercooled the 86 and 87 Monte SS with that 305. The 305 would have been a great candidate for SFI injection and a modest turbo. The Monte SS would have been a bigtime contender because all the aftermarket upgrades were already their to support bigtime power.

Opinion, it depends on the condition More importantly, it depends on you. A certain car can be priceless to an owner because it has meaning to them. If you’re dream has been to own an ‘85 Monte Carlo and now you have your chance and you can afford it… we say, chase your dream.
