1972

Chevrolet Monte Carlo

Up for auction is a very nice '72 Monte Carlo with its original drivetrain. The odometer reads 22,000 and some change. I believe it has 122,000 do to its age and the fact that it is 42 years old. The car has one newer repaint with very solid original panels throughout. The bottom of the doors and door jams are perfect. All body lines are as good as when it came out of the factory. There aren't any dings, dent, or scratches anywhere on the paint. The floor boards are solid and have never been patched as the same for the frame. All the stainless on the car is in great condition. The bumpers have been replaced with new ones do to some staining and discoloration to the originals. The vinal top was replaced do to fading and shrinking in some areas. The interior is all original except for a new carpet and rear package tray. The front bench seat has one small rip on the pipe seam on the driver's side and a small tear on the shoulder part of the passenger side. The dash has one crack in its usual area toward the center speaker. All the guages are in funtional order except for the famous clock. Yes, the factory tachometer works. Sporting its original drive train, this car has the 402 cubic inch, big block V-8, with Turbo 400 automatic transmission, and a 12 bolt non-posi rear end. A previous owner has replaced the factory exhaust manifolds with a set of ceramic coated headers with complete exhaust to the rear tailpipes. Along with that, some of the A/C components have been removed, but are somewhat available if the new owner wants them with the car. (Not sure what posseses people to remove original equipment and never put it back in its place). The engine has been refreshed with new cam & lifters, seals, berrings, and gaskets. It runs excellent, does not smoke, or leak. Same for the transmission. It has been fully rebuilt with a mild shift kit. Shifts smoothly and promptly. Car has the original Rally Wheels with BF Goodrich radial T/A white letter tires. This is a turn key car that you can drive anywhere and for any length of time with no worries. It has a nice smooth ride on the road and is very responsive in every way. Not to forget to mention a real head turner on the road.
