Here you go folks, a 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe! This SS Aerocoupe is a good solid project, and something that let's you build it the way you want it! These things are getting harder and harder to find, and as you know, the Aerocoupe was a two year car only. The rear window in these things go for big bucks, and this one is perfect.
It has the original 305 SBC with 200R auto trans. The engine appears to have a valve train noise, and not sure what condition the trans is in. So assume both need rebuilt or replaced. Low mileage 305's in this area sell for approx $400, so it would be pretty cheap to get back on the road. Both the engine and trans were being disconnected for removal, when owner lost interest. All emissions equipment is there and in the trunk (picture shown). All brackets appear to be there as well, and engine bay looks good. It will need an exhaust system from manifolds back. All computer equipment is there to make for an easy 305 swap, or rip it all out and stick in a 350 SBC, whatever direction you want to go.
Body is real nice for having sat around. Only found a few small rust spots (eraser size) in the lower pan of the spare tire well, other than that, trunk looks great, and has the original jack and lug wrench, but missing the spare. Front nose cone is in great shape, and the upper front nose cone mount is solid (these usually rust out quick). Doesn't appear to have ever been hit. Frame and underside look real good too. Car appears to have had one repaint a while ago, and the flat surfaces on hood, roof, and deck lid have faded.All glass is good, door glass is manual, and the rear aero glass is perfect. The paint on the drivers side quarter below the quarter glass is cracking. Drive it the way it is, or sand and paint it the way you want it! Replacement door handles are in the trunk that look new (also pictured).
Thanks for the questions already. However per the description, I will not part this SS Aerocoupe out. You want to buy the rear glass or nose cone, you'll have to buy the whole car and you can part it out. I certainly appreciate the math lesson one gentlemen provided me on what I can get for this car by parting it out, but again not interested in either :).
The interior is in decent shape, but you may want to replace the dash pad (your choice), and needs a rear bottom seat. All seat belts are there, bucket seats and console. Shifter is not hooked up, and the console just laying in-place. The upper door panels are faded, as well as upper seats front sitting in the sun. Keep them the way they are, dye them, or have it all reupholstered. Again, your choice.
The gentlemen that owned this Aerocoupe, had quite a few Monte's, which were all in great shape. He's just decided he's had enough, and moving the projects he know's he won't get too. This is a project car, but can be put back on the road with little effort! This thing is to nice to part out or make a race car out of, so please don't ask me to sell parts off of it. Good Luck!

Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too
Wed, Jul 23 2014The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?
Sun, Jan 10 2016Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
