OK so im going to try to sell my 87 monte carlo on here... never sold a car on here so I will list it to the fullest extent, and note I only deal with pay pal.  I purchased this car in 09 and built a mild 355 for it and raced it, the car then ran a 13.10 at 106. then I traded it away, and purchased it back last year and re did everything. TOO much invested in the car.

 

the car is a 87 monte carlo LS sport. the mileage on title is exempt and when I bought it the first time the original owner told me it was about 70k. I can not verify that. the cluster says 60k title is clear not reconstructed. I converted it to the SS nose, and swapped the light harness. all lights work. only piece needed to complete the conversion is the filler plate between nose and the middle of rad support. I was planning to make a custom one but never got around to it.

The body is in good shape,it's currently primered wich some people love others hate, I personally only primered it for time being until I got it painted. the fenders are brand new, all LS moldings and rivets are gone, as well as vinyl top. only filler in the body is in the top of the corner glass at the roof, common prob for these cars. there is a small hole smaller then a dime in each quarter under the marker by the marker lights. I'm not good at body work so I didn't attempt to fix them. Car has the SS spoiler too.  every light in and on the car works.

cooling system: stock lt1 rad from 94 Camaro, dual electric fan set up from same car, dual relays , wired to thermo switch to come on at 170 and off at 160.

Engine: 385 LT1 Stroker all machine work done by Andy Jensen of Jensen's Engine technology

1994 block, .040" over, Eagle steel crank, Eagle I beam rods, Speed pro Hyperutecnic flat top pistons. plasma rings, perfect circle bearings, ARP Rod bolts, Melling HV oil pump, summit pan zinc plated, cloyes timing set, 94 lt1 heads re worked, Doug Herbert custom roller cam .525 .245, Comp roller lifters, Comp 1.6 self aligning roller rockers, Comp beehive valve springs, Manley Stainless 2", 1.56" valves, ported bowls, ARP head bolts, GMPP carb intake manifold, Holley 750 double pumper, billet hei distributor with summit racing wires, new water pump, 160 thermostat Hyper-tech,  new cs 130 alternator from a 96 s10, new alternator relocation brackets, Billet crank hub to adapt lt1 balancer to eagle crank, new corvette balancer. new sfi flex plate.

Tranny is a th350 rebuilt with 2800-3200 stall Jegs brand, polished aluminum pan, b&m shift kit, hurst pro matic 2 shifter, G force crossmember, new tranny lines and cooler.

Rear is a stock 373 posi monte rear, ss sway bar... NOTE THERE IS NO FRONT SWAY BAR

Exhaust is 2 3" flowmasters mounted right at the headers, just on the other sided of crossmember, no body exit, will need different exhaust set up to be legal. I made this just to get the car mobile until I got a new exh kit, but ended up liking the way it sounds, motor responds extremely well to this too. its loud

wheels are cragar street lites, not aluminum, steel wheels. one rear is slightly rusted but still looks good, 15x8 rear and 15x7 front, brand new 275/60/15s on the back.

jegs electric fuel pump, pre and post filters, new aluminum 3/8th fuel line from tank up.  new jegs fuel pressure gauge on carb

Interior was dark red, I changed everything over to gray, car still needs a headliner and the carpet isn't that great. should have a new carpet and headliner

OVERALL the car is great if you like G body's like I do. looks tough and runs awesome and sounds even better, with little body work, paint, and a headliner the car can be show worthy. its not easy to find these any more due to people wrecking them on the tracks. car has not been raced since the new drive train installed, but is well capable of a low 12 to high 11. pulls very hard and is reliable, runs at 160 all day and about 50 lb oil pressure warm.

also battery is mounted in trunk, new box and cable kit, 2 gauge power wire, works fine and charges at 14.5 volts

any questions, just message me I can answer anything related to this car.

ONLY reason im selling this car is I'm having a kid and don't need a project right now and can use the money towards a new car.

 

SORRY forgot to list the gas gauge does not work, it did about a month ago, it just stopped. sorry

Fernando Alonso fails to qualify as Pagenaud takes Indy pole

Mon, May 20 2019

Former Formula One world champion Fernando Alonso narrowly failed to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday as France's Simon Pagenaud took pole position for the May 26 race. Kyle Kaiser beat out Alonso for the final spot in the 33-car field when he finished third, one spot ahead of the Spaniard, in a six-car shootout that determined the Indy 500's last row. The 23-year-old Kaiser, the last driver to take the track, averaged 227.372 mph for his four laps, a mere 0.019 mph ahead of Alonso's 227.353 mph average in the McLaren-prepared Chevrolet. "We never surrendered. We kept trying," Alonso, 37, told reporters after a tough week at the famed speedway. The Spaniard crashed his Chevrolet in practice on Wednesday and missed nearly two full days of practice while a back-up car was prepared. Then he tried five times on Saturday to qualify, puncturing a tire on the first attempt. Alonso had a completely new set up for Sunday's shootout but could not get the speed he needed to qualify. "I think the car felt better today than what we had yesterday. (So I am) happy with things we tried," he told reporters before learning he had not qualified. Pagenaud had a four-lap average speed of 229.992 mph to become the first Frenchman to take the pole since Rene Thomas in 1919. "It's just amazing," Pagenaud, who last week won the IndyCar Grand Prix on the track's road course, told NBC Sports. "Obviously last week was amazing, but this is even more special." He will be joined by Ed Carpenter (229.889) and Spencer Pigot (229.826) on the front row. But the Cinderella story belonged to Kaiser, the 33rd qualifier. "I don't think I can wrap my mind around what we just did," he said after bumping Alonso from the field. "This is all the credit to the team. They've been working non-stop trying to get this car ready for us and they did everything that we needed to get into this field."

Safety group pans GM’s new Marketplace in-dash shopping

Wed, Dec 6 2017

When it comes to our cars, is the Internet of Things a godsend? Or a hidden menace that will create more problems than it will solve? On the same day General Motors announced it will equip newer-model cars with its in-dash Marketplace e-commerce app, a prominent safety group was shooting it down. National Safety Council President Deborah Hersman tells Bloomberg the technology will only contribute to distracted driving and hurt efforts to stem the tide of rising auto fatalities, which grew 5.6 percent to more than 37,000 in the U.S. in 2016. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says distracted driving was responsible for 3,477 fatalities and 391,000 injuries in 2015, the most recent year for which it has data. "There's nothing about this that's safe," Hersman told Bloomberg. "If this is why they want WiFi in the car, we're going to see fatality numbers go up even higher than they are now." Marketplace, developed with IBM, will allow drivers — or more often, one hopes, their passengers — to order coffee or food, find gas stations and reserve hotel rooms from their dashboard screens. The technology is set to be uploaded automatically to nearly 1.9 million GM vehicles model-year 2017 and later that are equipped with WiFi hotspots and compatible systems. By the end of 2018, about 4 million Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles will be equipped with Marketplace. The app will debut with a limited number of participating retailers, including TGI Fridays, Shell, Exxon Mobil and Starbucks, with more likely to join later. Online retail giant Amazon is also partnering with automakers such as Ford to bring e-commerce capabilities inside the car through its Alexa personal assistant. While convenience is nice, one other thing is becoming clear as the IoT wedges its way into our cars: It's taking aim at some decidedly first-world problems.Related Video: Image Credit: GM Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Technology Infotainment in-car entertainment marketplace e-commerce

GM takes 2020 full-size pickup sales crown

Thu, Jan 7 2021

It's no secret that 2020 was an unconventional year for auto sales. Extenuating circumstances or not, it was a year of upheaval even for ever-resilient (and ever-profitable) pickups, with General Motors taking the crown from Ford in the full-size segment.  The Ford F-Series still outsold every other full-size pickup nameplate in the country by a significant margin. It's only when you combine GM's Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra variants that you get a number that exceeds Ford's. This isn't really a new phenomenon, either. In fact, it was only somewhat recently that Ford took the overall full-size crown away from GM, and not only did Ford widen the gap in recent years, but Ram has once again become a legitimate challenger, even managing to outsell the Silverado by a healthy margin in 2019, but never coming close to the F-Series in terms of total volume.  But, 2020 being 2020, things got weird yet again. Ram remains relevant, of course, but Ford got caught with its pants down thanks to the one-two punch of COVID and the generational changeover of the core F-150 model, which resulted in a production interruption as the company's assembly facilities transitioned from building the old 2020 model to the new-for-2021. This perfect storm, as it turns out, was sufficient for GM to walk away with the full-size crown. See for yourself: Full-size 2020 pickup sales: GM total: 847,110 F-Series: 787,422 Silverado: 594,094 Ram: 563,676 Sierra: 253,016 Tundra: 109,203 Titan: 26,439 As you can see, Ram slipped back behind Silverado, slotting comfortably into third place. The Silverado 1500 had a flat year, but the heavy- and medium-duty variants bucked the trend and contributed to a slight uptick in sales for the nameplate, while F-Series tumbled more than 12% (nearly 110,000 units), opening the door for GM to steam ahead.  There were similarly significant shakeups in the midsize truck segment. First, 2020 was the first full year of retail sales for the Gladiator pickup, which surged to fourth place behind the stalwart Tacoma, Ranger and Colorado. GM's combined sales of the Colorado and Canyon are good enough for second place by manufacturer, but nowhere close to what it would take to dethrone Toyota.
