I found this in our archived bound newspaper copies a while back but I'm not sure if I posted it here. This is scanned from a March 31, 1971 copy of the Oshawa This Week newspaper I have worked for since 1983. This article published less than 2 weeks prior to the production date of my car.

Enjoy :)

Good article, Larry.  I would agree on the rear seat access.  I've added power seatback releases on both of my bucket seat '70s but that is only a minor improvement.  

 

My wife found an original 1970 Monte Carlo dealer sales brochure at a swap meet and bought it for me just recently.  Interesting to see how our cars were originally marketed.

My 1971 was built in Oshawa. It's been a great car.

Neat!   18.6 mpg?   I get like half that!

18.6, I believe it. My 70 without AC on the highway got 19ish. With overdrive imagine what our cars would have gotten new.
