This is one of the nicest Monte Carlo's of this vintage that I have ever seen. It gets comments everywhere it goes. Simply stunning. There is not a speck of rust on this car, completely solid. You can eat off of the engine bay it's so clean. The underneath is as clean as the top, no rust all original and no repairs. The interior is great as well. Brand new carpet, brand new seats, brand new head liner. The outside features brand new paint that is flawless and beautiful. It shines and looks deep enough to put your hand in it! The wheels are also brand new American Racing torque thrust's with painted spokes and polished rim.
This car runs perfectly. Sounds pretty amazing too with brand new flowmaster dual exhaust done right. Including an h pipe and new hangers. Makes for that perfect, deep, throaty sound without being overly loud. It's just right. She starts right up the instant the key is turned. Never ever has it run hot, just purrs right along no matter what traffic is doing. It has separate gauges for engine temp, battery voltage and oil pressure. All stay exactly where they should. I've had it on the highway for a few trips and it runs at speed with no issues at all. She just floats down the road like a dream! No wandering, no vibrations.
The brakes are great. Power brakes with rotors up front. They haul her down as they should. The radio works but the previous owner removed the speakers before selling it. I've never bothered to replace them because I don't normally go very far in it and I love the sound that the engine makes. You can add them back if you like, it's already wired. No leaks at all. Also, all of the seals on this car are brand new. The A-arm bushings are also in great shape, a common problem with these cars. The body pucks are also in great shape, no sagging at all. Notice the body panel gaps. They are all perfect. Absolutely perfect. This body is straight as can be.
The chrome is also stunning. In amazing shape! One of my favorite things to do with this car is polish it's chrome and it is stunning how it shines. The vinyl top is also brand new and in perfect shape. The glass has no chips or cracks in it.This is a factory air car but it needs to be recharged. I never really need it considering the windows on this thing are massive! She only has 75k miles on it and it really shows. This is the first year for the Monte Carlo and finding one in this condition is truly rare. You won't be disappointed.
The only reason I am selling it is I have my eye on a local Mopar and this one has to go first. Yes, I really am thinking about crossing over to the "dark side" LOL. I bought this car at Mecum after going over it with a fine tooth comb beforehand. I was lucky (and determined) enough to win the highest bid. I've loved it ever since but the call of change gets louder and it's time to find another great car to enjoy. The pictures are from the day after I bought it. Still looks exactly the same. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have and I'll be happy to help. Don't miss this one, it's a true gem!

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
