1987 MONTE CARLO SS. THIS IS A PROJECT CAR THAT NEEDS SOME WORK. CURRENT TRANSMISSION WILL ONLY WORK IN FORWARD GEARS. WHEN THE GEAR SELECTOR IS MOVED TO ANY POSITION OTHER THAN PARK THE CAR DRIVES FORWARD EVEN IN NEUTRAL. I PULLED THE TRANS PAN AND FOUND THE SIGNAL PIPE LAYING IN THE PAN. I REINSTALLED IT BUT HAVEN'T TESTED TO SEE IF THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. I'LL UPDATE WITH RESULTS LATER. I DO HAVE A REPLACEMENT TRANSMISSION REMOVED FROM A KNOWN WORKING MONTE CARLO THAT WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE SALE. CAR IS VERY STRAIGHT BUT THE PAINT IS SHOT. DRIVERS FLOOR HAS HAD SOME RUST ISSUES. REST OF THE FLOORS ARE NICE. HAS A PERFORMANCE 355 ENGINE INSTALLED. TRANS IS A 200-R4 AND HAS A 10 BOLT 3.73 POSI REAR. T-TOPS ARE IN DECENT SHAPE. LOWER REAR ROCKERS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AT SOME TIME AND WILL NEED SOME ATTENTION TO BE NICE. ( WELDED IN REPAIR, NO FILLER OVER THE WELD SEAM ) ALL SUPER SPORT TRIM,WHEELS,ETC. IS INTACT. I WILL UPDATE THE AUCTION AS IT PROGRESS'S. I AM LOCATED 1/2 MILE OFF OF INTERSTATE 81,EXIT 100. MY ZIP IS 17963. ANY QUESTIONS JUST ASK.On Dec-07-11 at 08:07:57 PST, seller added the following information: JUST STARTED THE CAR WHILE STILL ON JACK STANDS. ENGINE SOUNDS REALLY GOOD BY THE WAY. THE TRANS IS NOT FIXED. IT STILL WANTS TO GO FORWARD NO MATTER WHERE THE SHIFT SELECTOR IS POSITIONED OTHER THAN PARK. I WAS INFORMED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER THAT THE TRANS SHIFTED FINE PRIOR TO A SHIFT KIT INSTALLATION UPGRADE. COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS A CHECK BALL NOT INSTALLED IN THE RIGHT LOCATION OR NOT INSTALLED AT ALL. EITHER WAY THE CAR WILL NEED TRANSMISSION SERVICE OR REPLACEMENT WITH THE INCLUDED TRANSMISSION. CAR DOES HAVE A GOOD PA. TITLE BUT IT IS NOT TRANSFERRED INTO MY NAME. IT IS SIGNED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER AND WILL BE GIVEN TO THE PURCHASER WITH A BILL OF SALE. THE PREVIOUS OWNER CAN BE AVAILABLE TO TRANSFER THE TITLE IF NEEDED. REMEMBER THIS IS A PROJECT CAR THAT WILL NEED TRANSMISSION REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. IT IS WELL WORTH MY RESERVE IN PARTS ALONE OR IT COULD BE USED TO MAKE A RACE CAR OR RESTORE TO A NICE DRIVER. I WILL POST MORE PICTURES LATER TODAY.On Dec-08-11 at 07:46:15 PST, seller added the following information: WEATHER FINALLY CHANGE FROM RAIN/SNOW SO I PULLED THE CAR OUT OF THE GARAGE TO UPDATE THE PICTURES. I HAD TO WASH THE REAR TIRES/LOWER QTRS FROM SOME OF THE DIRT THAT WAS THEM TO SHOW THE REPAIR TO THE LOWER REAR QTR ROCKER. I ALSO TOOK PICTURES OF THE TRUNK FLOOR WHICH IS VERY SOLID. IT DOES HAVE THE BAGS/COVERS FOR THE T-TOPS. THEY WILL NEED CLEANED LIKE THE REST OF THE CAR. I AM LOWERING THE BUY IT NOW ALONG WITH THE RESERVE. I WOULD LIKE THIS CAR GONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I AM OPEN TO REASONABLE CASH OFFERS WITH THE BUYERS INTENT TO PICK UP THE CAR WITHIN A WEEK OR LESS, AGAIN I REALLY NEED TO MOVE THIS OUT OF MY GARAGE. THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR INTEREST.
