1974 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Landau 5.7l on 2040-cars
Augusta, Georgia, United States
|
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! |

GM recalls 3.6 million vehicles for airbag-software problems
Fri, Sep 9 2016The Basics: General Motors is recalling 3.64 million vehicles across its lineup for an airbag-related issue. The recall covers the 2014-2015 Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet SS, and Spark EV; 2014-2017 Chevrolet Corvette, Trax, Caprice PPV, Silverado 1500, Buick Encore, and GMC Sierra 1500; and 2015-2017 Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, Silverado HD, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL, Sierra HD, Cadillac Escalade, and Escalade ESV. The Problem: Affected vehicles have a sensing and diagnostic module that controls the airbags and seat-belt pretensioners. The software it uses has a defect that can prompt the module to run a diagnostic test under specific driving conditions, which will also deactivate the front airbags and pretensioners. This means that it would be possible for those safety systems to not activate in a crash, potentially leading to injury or death. Injuries/Deaths: General Motors began an investigation that led to the recall after a 2014 Silverado was involved in a crash in which the airbags did not deploy. No information was given as to injuries or deaths. The Fix: Owners can bring their vehicles to a local General Motors dealer where a software update will be installed to fix the issue. The fix will be free of charge. If you own one: General Motors will contact owners of affected cars, and owners can check whether their vehicles are affected by visiting entering their vehicle identification numbers at either the GM Owner Center website or the NHTSA website. Owners can then schedule a time to have the update installed. Related Video:
Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black
EcoCar3 will convert Camaro to bitchin' eco rides
Sat, Apr 26 2014In the 47-year-history of the Chevrolet Camaro, there have been countless college-age kids spending a ton of time getting under the hood and souping 'em up. Now, General Motors is adding a twist to the concept by donating 16 Camaros for the EcoCar challenge that puts university teams together to wring out better fuel-efficiency out of various vehicles. No word on whether there will be donuts on anyone's lawn, as suggested by 80's punks the Dead Milkmen, but the idea's never a bad one. EcoCar3 will feature 16 teams such as Arizona State, Penn State, Ontario's University of Waterloo and, of course, Detroit's Wayne State University. They'll spend the next four years "[reducing] environmental impact, while maintaining the muscle and performance expected from this iconic American car," as the EcoCar organizers say. The goal is to maintain body design and safety standards while boosting efficiency and lowering emissions, but the actual process is far more complicated than that description suggests. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Bosch are among the sponsors of the contest, which is also put on by the US Department of Energy and managed by Argonne National Laboratory. Penn State won Year Two of the three-year EcoCar 2 competition with its E85 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle converted out of a Chevy Malibu. The grand-prize winner of EcoCar2 will be announced in June. Check out the EcoCar3 website and see the announcement video below for more details. This content is hosted by a third party.
