- One more to round-out the 1980 Chevy passenger cars...the 1980 Monzas. Interesting offerings including coupe, hatchback and Spyder package. "Elegance in a sub-compact, with a dressy town car appearance.".....sure.
Sales-training slides are included at the end of the video. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I love this stuff. Could listen to that music all day :)
Reminds me of eating in Sambos
Always look forward to these videos! Thanks for uploading!
Thanks for posting this I still have a red 1978 spyder, factory V8 and 4 spd.
WIsh I could afford to make you an offer on it
Wow I didn't realize they still offered the quad rectangular headlamp front end style in 1980.
Love it. I have a 1978 Monza Spyder.
Me too!
Interesting to see the Spyder option was still available. Surprising the wagon was gone, but not really since it had the same cargo volume as the Citation hatchbacks which had much more rear-seat passenger room.
My friends mother had a couple of these back in the day, at different times and years, I want to say that she also had one of the Oldsmobile spinoffs, I think the sunfire or sunbird but looked just like this with different rearend and frontend.
Wow, @2:45 it appears the turn signal relay is already faulty with that somewhat fast, uneven blinking.
You know absolutely nothing about vintage cars. Nearly every car made back then used a thermal flasher which worked off heat and didn't use any relays and the quick flashing was the norm. I bet your just as much of a real doctor as the first lady.
@@jsciarri and you’re really Archie Bunker 🙄. The cars I’ve had from that era did use relays, but no I suppose I know absolutely nothing about them, even though I ran an import garage for many years and we worked on lots of old junk. I guess the prehistoric stuff GM was still making in 1980 was different, so I stand corrected on *that* 😝.
@@DrCharlesMontagueyou were right the first time. The car’s front and rear signal were both in unison, controlled by a turn signal relay, the small cylinder shaped device located on the fuse box. Thermal/controlled by heat was something that was occurring inside the unit; the bi-metallic strip heated and cooled, cycling the current on and off. I know you know this but the other guy is way off, I’m explaining how off he is. The relay was controlled by the driver’s use of the turn signal lever (or electricity), heat doesn’t control the relay. Heat occurs, but as a result of the driver’s control.
@@DrCharlesMontague Ignore the troll. Sure are a lot of miserable people online that love to spread the joy...
0:14 to 1:04 love this song and music.
Days of leisure suits plaid corduroy bell bottoms, tutle necks, fuzzy Kennington shirts ugh.
Did have us some good Disco...and rock and roll.
THis was a real tough time for auto manufacturers not much was exciting back then.
If you look at the four headlights, first look at the front of the Camaro in 82.
Yep 3rd gen camaro...except for the steel bumper they are very very similar
Nostalgic and fun to watch memories of an utterly forgettable automobile.
The 2.5 L Iron Duke drove more like a cast iron dog. No offense to canines. 🐕😊
My first dog's name was Duke 🤣🤣🤣

Never seen one of these on the road
Not many on the road back in the 80s, never saw them much. Not sure why
Those are horrible service recommendations. Unless of course they wanted you to wear everything out.😊
Ball joint wear indicator, interesting
This later morphed into the Citation didnt it
Dad almost bought a X11. Looking back probably good thing he didnt .
5:10 the women's car has 2 white sport mirrors on each door , but at 5:36 she has a chrome mirror on the driver side door and there is no mirror on the passenger side door when you got the chrome mirror.
It's a woman driver, she probably smacked one of them and it had to go in for a quick patch-up during filming
Change your oil every 7500 miles! So that's what happened to all the old cars. That oil turned back to wax at 3000.
1:03 = wrong signal = idiot driver = filmed in Detroit
