Welcome to the forum.
The interior of your 86 looks great. Did you have to do a lot of work inside? Like re-upholster seats, repair/replace dash? All you need inside is the horn button and you're good to go.
The exterior needs work, but looks solid from the pictures. Doesn't look like it's completely rusted out or anything. Have you found replacement decals for the exterior if/when you repaint the car?
If you don't mind front wheel drives, a 1995-2007 Monte is a great daily driver. The 2006 & 2007 Monte SS even has a V8 if you insist on a V8. But if all you really want is a very affordable daily driver that has plenty of room, but still good on gas, you can't go wrong with a 1995-1999 (5th generation).
