1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Coupe

8 - Cyl.

Automatic

Gasoline

This is a rare find...being a Special order Big Block w/ Turbo 400 12 bolt,Dual Exhaust, tilt,Factory A/C,Strato Buckets/console with special instrumentation(in dash tach.) & then finished in Rare 14 code Metallic Pewter Silver! The Paint is the only thing not original on this car! The few month old job is equivelant to about a 5K paint job where everything was removed and prepped very well.The condition of the paint at this time is 100% flawless! This Monte was ordered in Prescott,AZ and now just North of Phoenix,AZ. The underside,engine compartment &interior could be detailed a bit more to make a show car but...If I were to keep it I'd leave it because its all original! The only thing I would do is replace the exhaust,because it has "old school" Blue Streak Glass paks! still from the 70s or 80's,the exhaust pipes before that appear to be original because they are flat at the top and have a light coating of rust on them...probably from storage on cement(stored away for many years,before I got it). This car even has the build sheet,window sticker and protecto-plate to doc. and prove all authenticity I feel this car is easily worth $12,500,however,considering this market my reserve is set thousands lower and I've decide to keep and restore my 66K mile '70 Chevelle survivor unless, someone pries that from me...the Monte will be the keeper,Im just a Chevelle guy. Please look at all the pics and examine them well ...you will notice that one will be hard-pressed to ever find one this nice and original ! Please be serious and on the level as I will be with you! I need no loser non-paying bidders and will work with anyone back east for storage,pick-up at airport or transport set up etc.(my local non-covered transporter ,just charged a friend 795 to the midwest flaw free in 1week!) I realize is a project and I will treat/assist you as I would expect to be treated,however...It is your responsibilty after the sale is made! All efforts of honesty and integrity will be made,just call 623-249-0968 anytime for any questions concerning this vehicle.I have the right to end auction early as it is for sale locally. Thanks and Bid to win as I may or may not run it again! Good Luck either way!On Aug-22-10 at 20:50:22 PDT, seller added the following information: Some guys feel the stain in the last picture is a crack(floorboard) it is just a stain of some kind over the last 38yrs.The floor boards are all solid!On Aug-22-10 at 20:56:39 PDT, seller added the following information: Sorry, pictures of the build sheet & window sticker had been forgotten...I will send anyone any addl. pics of those docs.if seriously interested,Thx.On Aug-25-10 at 07:32:37 PDT, seller added the following information: To be up front with all buyers...again I will state that this is not a show car,(even though paint is near show quality)...There is a light coating of condensational rust(not salt related) to the underside,all of which sands or blasts smooth(its probably from storage on cement)It appears that the paint shop had wire brushed the fuel tank in some spots and sprayed black paint over the control arms,easy reach areas of the frame and front lower a-arms. This all looks to be cosmetic,I did not find any deep rust or rust through anywhere.Thx! Please call 623-249-0968 for addl. questions.
