1970 Monte Carlo on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:55673
Location:

Chevy Monte Carlo 2Dr. Up for sale is an extremely rare 1970 Monte Carlo. This Monte is one of 545 units factory equipped with a three speed manual shift on the column. This car has only 55,673 original miles. Same owner from May 1970 'til March of 2012. The original owner special ordered this Monte car to his liking with a 350/250hp, manual column shift, positraction rear end with 3.08 gears, dual exhaust, vinyl roof, bumperettes, and door belt moldings. 

The original colors are forest green with a green cloth bench seat interior. Recent repairs include new rear springs, new clutch, complete tune-up fluid change, and new tires. This Monte was last registered and driven til 1987 where it was properly garaged and preserved. Other than a repaint in the late 70s , she is all original having never been restored. The body is very straight with no dents. The orginal chrome bumbers are straight and glowing. 

The trunk is a time capsule with its original spare tire and original splatter paint. The interior is near perfect with the exception of one burn hole. The seat has some water stains from cleanings. Perfect headliner, dash pad, door panels, original mint carpet , mint steering wheel with no crack($),and original floor mats. I have the original protecto-plate, build sheet, sales brochure, and owners manuals. This is a great running and driving car needing no repairs at all. I am very experienced in first generation Monte Carlos and highly doubt there is another one in existance such as this one.

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015

Tue, Feb 11 2014

Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper. For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011. The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors. While the adoption of SAE J2807 will be helpful for light-duty customers, those interested in bigger trucks will still be left with differing standards. There is no sign of the new tow standards being adopted for the heavy-duty market.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
