Hello everyone, this is painful for me but here goes.


NO RESERVE, STARTING PRICE IS THE RESERVE.....IF ONLY ONE PERSON BIDS, ITS GONE.

This is a 1972 Chevrolet MonteCarlo which I named Delilah .  The paint is blue on the sides and black over the top to include the hood, roof and trunk.  There are some rust spots on the body to include the driver door bottom area, the left quarter panel by the door, the right rear quarter panel under bondo, the lower left and right areas of the rear window, the rain gutter for the trunk, the trunk pan which needs replaced (could not upload picture for trunk pan but expect center piece needing replaced).

The interior is good, but is starting to spread on stitching on certain areas(not noticeable).  The carpet is great,  The dash (Green color) is unsecured, light switch works but unsecured due to broken plastic.  Ceiling is good no rips or tears.

The ignition is still original with an added push button start,  electric kill switch  for car,  Electric fuel pump with switch.  Rear have air shocks that hold air, dual exhaust with nice sound not loud.

The car was in my garage and only driven about 1 time every three months around the block.  It needs an oil change and better gas.  Currently parked outside.

The motor is a newer model (possibly early 90's) Chevrolet 350 which runs very good (milage unknown).  The transmission is a 400 which leaks oil when I leave it parked, but runs strong  The carb is a 750 double pumper holley.  New radiator with one electric fan.  The car runs so cool half the time I doesn't even need the fan.  
The car could use tires, ball joints.  The brakes work but need bleeding or master cylinder???  The front wheel wells are plastic but has the right one partly broken.  The A/C is not hooked up but it does have the newer style compressor sitting on the motor.  

There are things that are not easily described that can only be seen in person.  I hope that I mentioned key topics that would otherwise surprise you if not mentioned.  The rest should be only positive aspects of my car which can be viewed in the pictures.  Just remember this car is an old muscle car looking for a new home that needs someone with the time and money it deserves.

I wouldn't take this car on a road trip, mainly because of tires and ball joints.  Could it make a trip the way it is??? who knows, I've done worst with no problems.  The last time this car was on the road for sure as a daily driver was in 2008.

If you have any questions, just email me or call/text 956 537 9781 and ask for Rafael.

Payment is accepted in cash only. A deposit of a non refundable 200.00 should be transferred via Paypal as soon as the auction is over.  I could deliver within Texas for a fee mainly to cover gas expenses.

2016 Chevy Silverado unveiled in full at Texas State Fair

Thu, Sep 24 2015

It's State Fair time down in the Lonestar State, which means a lot of things to a lot of Texans: rodeos, cook-offs, country music concerts, big belt buckles, and even bigger hats. But it also means new trucks. Ford used the occasion this year to roll out its new F-Series Super Duty pickups, but the Blue Oval won't have the show all to itself as Chevy is also on hand to reveal in full its latest updates to the Silverado. The Bowtie brand gave us our first glimpse at its updated 1500-series pickup back in July, but has now revealed the revised truck in full – and not just in Z71 spec, either. Buyers will be able to choose between WT, LS, LT, LTZ, and High Country trim levels – to say nothing of the various cab, box, and powertrain configurations. The top three get all-LED exterior lighting. And while the Z71 adopts the color-keyed trim we saw previously, other models like the LT, LTZ, and (to a lesser extent) the top-of-the-line High Country still bring the chrome for those who want it. Whichever the model, the new Silverado boasts a more muscular-looking front-end and a more sculpted hood. Inside, the new Silverado gets an optional MyLink system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support. The revised truck also benefits from added safety technology and convenience features. Engine options include a 4.3-liter V6 with 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque, a 5.3-liter V8 with 355 hp and 383 lb-ft, and a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 hp and 460 lb-ft. The news when it comes to powertrains is that the eight-speed automatic launched last year on the larger V8 is now being offered on the smaller 5.3 as well. 2016 Silverado: The New Face of Strong 2016 Silverado designed to build on Chevrolet's truck momentum 2015-09-24 - Bolder, more muscular look reflects Silverado strength, dependability - Expanded use of 8-speed transmissions; additional safety technologies - Available support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto DALLAS – The new 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 brings muscular designs and new customer-focused technologies to the most dependable, longest-lasting family of full-size pickups on the road. The new Silverados make their public debut today at the State Fair of Texas in Dallas. "The new 2016 Silverado will build on the Chevy truck legacy of dependability," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevrolet trucks.
