This car was built in California and sold new in Hawaii. I bought it from the original owner in Hawaii (I was stationed there) and shipped it to Georgia. The car was rust proofed as a dealer option in Hawaii before sold and the original owner kept it garaged and only drove it on weekends. He had put 17,850 miles in it when I bought it. It now has 22,300 miles. I have kept it garaged since I bought it also. Even though this is an original non-restored matching numbers vehicle I have done the following repairs/maintenance/updates;

- A/C was converted to R134A in MAY13 (Compressor new also in MAY13)

- All around new shocks in MAY13

- New front calipers brake pads and brake fluid flush in JUN13

- New Edelbrock intake manifold and new Rochester 4BBL carburetor in JUL13.

- New heater core and hoses in JAN14

- New front end bushings and dampener JAN14

 

Things that are on my “to do” list (…maybe your to do list now ;)

*The windshield washer pump is not working. You can hear the motor engage but no water comes out. All the lines/tubing is there.

*The passenger side electric door lock is not working.

*There are a few scratches on the paint job. I covered them with paint touch up in order for them not to rust.

* There is a small 1/2 ” “stress” tear on the front bench seat upholstery around the power seat controls.

* It has a small oil leak from the engine rear main seal. It’s a 40 year old seal!

 

What else???? Let’s see... The tires have about 90% thread left. The spare matches the set and is never been used. (No, the tires are not 40 years old! Lol) The rims are the original steel 15 x 7 x 5.75 with the wire wheel, “Chevrolet Motor Division” original hub caps. The 8-track player works! As well as the AM/FM radio, all lights, turn signals, power windows and power seat. The interior is like new! From headliner to floors! Again, not restored or replaced but original. Never has been smoked in. It has the original matching numbers 350 CID V8 and Turbo 350 tranny. You probably will not find another 1974 Monte Carlo in such a good original condition and with such a desirable original color combination. (Most out there have red, blue, green or cream interiors!)

If you have any questions or want to see any specific pictures, please shoot me and email. The car is in Ft. Gordon, GA and I have the GA title in my name on hand. It will be your responsibility to pick it up or make arrangements to ship it.

Thank you for checking out the Monte. Good luck!

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
