Hang in there, Randy. Props to you and Mike for keeping the faith.

Mike saved the trip

What if the guy you wanted to race you shows up lmao 🤣

Props to MWM for helping you so much. He also had that amazing idea, so big props to him. And props to Santa for driving 700 miles up to meet you guys, true warrior! You’ve got great friends Randy, and keep up the great work ❤. Mike hates getting credit, but man he’s a god damn savior bro

The uniqueness is that the Uhaul has a V8. Slow V8 but in my eyes a V8 is still suitable for Power Tour.😊

I would drop anything that has to do with that transmission and that company. Find another company that will sponsor you another transmission and use the Monty next year and call it the Revenge Power Tour! Btw Randy you definitely got some solid friends man. MWM and Santa are stand up friends!

Sorry about your stay in Louisville , for a number of reasons. You were in my neck of the woods. I think this was the first time Power Tour was here, and it looks like there's quite a few kinks to work yet. You might want to check out the Street Car Nationals in August, bigger venue, and they've been doing it for years now. Also it's within relative spitting distance to Terre Haute. the Louisville Metro is a great place , don't think badly of us. Come back soon.

Herbie man. Kirby is a vacuum cleaner and a game from the 80’s

Didn't you modify the transmission that was built specifically for your car and given to you, with a torque converter shut off/Overdrive. It could be why the solenoid switch failed. It might not have been designed for that..

Thank you Randy for putting that explanation in the end of the video, I feel for you guys. Drove my Fiero to my first car show today. GM Nationals Fieros at Carlisle PA. Was a big turn out. Saw a Fiero there with a 2024 Power Tour sticker in the back window.

😂Kirby? Bro, Herbie!

i dont think UPS will ship something on a pallet other than "ground". the shop manager should have known that.

Seriously, I love you guys man. It really sucks monster really dropped the ball on that. And I hope you get to recoup all your losses

You and Mike are pretty resilient!! Sharing the news helps viewers see all the hiccups and dookie that goes on. But the AWESOME thing is how y’all handle the shizzle with GRACE!! Y’all inspire me want to get back to work in fixing my former Copart-purchase Volvo S80!!

Hey Patrick Swayze, went to the same high school that I graduate from. I graduated in 2000 !

Given that you’ve given that U-Haul truck my name and since it also bears my favorite species of animal (bird) I humbly say Thank You Randy & Mike 😎👍!

A KIRBY???? ITS HERBIE THE LOVE BUG! lol😂

the last U-haul I rented had a V-10 in it, it pulled like crazy and still got 12 mpg. These "performance" companies get free advertisement from you tubers and charge triple what they should for their products. They build a few good ones for advertising and then build garbage after that. Back in the day you could get a good TH350 from B&M that would have an awesome warranty and beat the crap out of it for years and it would not break. Not the same today. Your trans was broken out of the box and continued to break!

@15:30 the Chrysler 6 barrel system works on the center 2 barrel until you floor it then all open up for a huge kick.... They are not hard or problematic to use as a daily ride,they do not all need to work in sync..very easy system,I put 80,000 miles on mine as a daily driver in 1987-1992 carbs never out of tune or sync.Chrysler dealers even sold those 6 barrel intakes for 383 engines and were pretty popular.. True,linkage needs to be adjusted so all 6bbl kick in at once but like a single 2 or 4bbl I bought a lot of cars where they were not adjusted and they didnt fully open up when floored anyways,sucks about the Monte Carlo keep up the videos..

Kirby is the vaccum!

Monster messed up not once but twice ..... I'm shocked 😱😱😱

Sorry you and Mike had to deal with this. Transmissions are weird things when they malfunction. We used to have an old British Spec Ford Escort and you could drive it for hours without issue. Only when you stopped to park the transmission would always boil over with fluid. That was one phantom issue we could ever figure out. When driving it shifted smooth but stopping was an issue for it.

I'm surprised That Power Tour doesn't end up in Duquoin Illinois, which is Southern Illinois, for the Street Machine Nationals. This is a huge car show at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds this weekend and every year.

Who needs a hotel room when you have a moving van. Great save MWM.

Doug Heffernan could have delivered that converter! #KingOfQueens

Good job guys for finishing

Wait, what did Randy say, Kerbie ? It's Herbie 😅 the love bug.

Randy my suggestion is find a transmission to put in . And put it in over at terre haute Indiana at the house

It’s Herbie😅 like Herbie fully loaded man I love that movie!

I liked the days of finding cheap cars, doing modest fixes and sending them down the road. The feel has definitely changed. At least then I felt like I could do some of the same things. Spending 30-40K on a project is not something in store for me. I guess I can spectate and just watch for the simple fact it deals with motors.

Is the torque converter bad or were the bolts loose? Sounded like the converter bolts came loose.

Great content Randy! Hope the views ease the pain a little!

I'm surprised you couldn't drop the MC off at the transmission shop & have them install the converter and pick it up later.

Dude, Monster have become Monsters !! I would love to do a trip to the States to do Power Tour . . . Feel for you Randy, you've put a heap of work into her and she looks the business . . . huge shame you couldn't run the full event, thankfully it's not a blown engine or a wreck !! . . . Here's to next time, may it be trouble free and a smooth run from start to finish !!

well less we got to see all the cool cool cars after it left you broke down. thanks for showing us the all the cool cars.

Hi Randy and Mike

I really feel for you man. I was really close to purchasing a trans from Monster myself. The poor reviews on the company definitely pushed me in another direction. The Monte is really a great looking car. I hope you wind up holding on to it. Don't let Monster deter you from holding on to an awesome classic car. It sounds fucking awesome.

Hopefully everything will turn out right

Hey Randy come to Cruisin' the Coast in october. I promise you'll love it!

Yeah Mike!! You the best!!!

Dam i was just going to buy a Monster. Randy with all this excitement. Dont forget to buy a car for your son and daughter. I know your busy and dont have time to look at cars and all that.

I'm sorry about your car Randy hopefully you'll get it fixed and your be okay again

Kirby the VW ? WTH Randy LOL... It's Herby

Hi Randy and Mike's, that's what we call reinventing. Life is about rethinking. One doesn't need to give up when challenging comes, period. That's my take.

Wow Randy, I’m so sorry that is bullshit. Monster transmissions really screwed you and they don’t seem to care and that sucks bad, either way the Monte still looks great even though it’s sitting on a trailer. I hope things get better for you Randy!!

Brother be happy this life

Ypu two are the greatest Thank you for taking us all on power tour

Can the transmission shop refuse shipment and the company resend it to Oklahoma?

Dang bro,I feel for ya,it's good Mike was there with you, NOW u gotta regroup,do 1 thing at a time to complete the task at hand. U gotta be strong, I've been following you the whole trip. Looked forward to watching your vlogs,I sure miss my dad looking at the classics!!! We're Mopar fanatics!! From 61 to 77!!! I'm a 69 charger fan,even before Dukes of Hazzard LMBO ,I used to get mad everytime they wrecked 1 in the show knowing by the time I can get 1 they'd all be wrecked!!! Still don't have 1😢. Good luck my friend, from south florida

Sorry you and Mike had so many problems on your trip, but hopefully you enjoyed yourselves more than you were annoyed with the situation. I know monster transmission helped in building the car, they should at least offer you half the extra layout in money you spent because of their failed product, it would be the ethical thing to do….

Oh man ☹️ I hope everything works out

Just leave the car at the trans shop fly home then fly back when you can. The shop will take care of your car just go home do what you need to do and fly back to your house in TH Indiana get the car drive home would be a good video.
