1984 Monte Carlo Ss Very Nice Driver 70619 Miles on 2040-cars

Year:1984 Mileage:70619
Location:

Vanceburg, Kentucky, United States

Vanceburg, Kentucky, United States

I bought this car on eBay a few years ago.  The first part of the description is what the previous owner wrote
and I have found it accurate.

1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS.
Runs and drives good (currently driven everyday and has current NC tags and inspection).
Previous owner has swapped out the 305/3-speed combo for a 350/overdrive automatic (200R).
Smoke-free.
Also has a new tweed headliner and matching visors (previous owner had started to restore).
Front end is lowered with drop spindles, rear springs are cut.
Ball joints and bushings where replaced when the work was done. 
Wheels are stock, but in good shape.
Power steering. 
Front disc brakes.
Has optional 3.42 rear gears.
Aftermarket gauges for H2O, Oil and volt.
Fresh rebuild on the engine (approx 3000 mi). 
Engine has pop-up Keith Blacks, polished dual plane aluminum intake, and Holley carb.
Dual Flowmasters.
Battery is new and radiator was replaced when the engine was changed.
AC compressor has been removed and I don't know the condition/function of the rest of the system.
Cruise control does not work. 
Electric door locks were still, so I've unhooked the solenoids so they work manually.

Note: A few people have questioned the validity of the car being a true SS.  It is and the title verifies that.  In
1984 the bench seat and column shift was an option for the SS and about 15% of the SS’s sold were like
that.

What I have done to the car:

I have changed the oil and driven it approximately 1000 miles since purchase.
I have added chrome valve covers and new chrome air breather.
I didn’t like the tires so the front ones are new. 
All new interior upholstery
New carpet
New window felts
New power window motors
New outside door handles
New door seals
New trunk seal
New door hinge kits
New paint
New Z28 style cowl hood scoop

No cruise
No air conditioning
No power door locks

When I got the car it had very little rust.  The lip at the bottom of  the trunk lid was the worst. That was
repaired and water access was stopped.
I drive the car to work a couple days a week in the summer on nice days.
The paint looks good from a few feet out but is not perfect. It has a few medium sized runs that are
noticeable on close inspection.
It has never failed to start and run for me. It runs pretty strong for a big car.
I believe the mileage to be accurate at 70619 currently.
The car has a couple of fluid leaks. They are not bad enough that I have to check the fluids every time I
drive it but they will spot the floor when it’s parked. I think one is the power steering unit and the other I’m
not sure about.
There are a couple of small cracks in the dash and the instrument cluster panel needs some attention.
I know there are some things I am forgetting so if you are interested in this car please ask questions or
even better, come see it.

This is not a show car but it would be the perfect candidate for making one.
It is as solid of a 1984 car your likely to find.

The photos will show the car on the trailer the day I bought it and a few others of it now.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
