That's not the "one" I'm looking for but if I was building a collection of First Generation Monte Carlos I would definitely be interested in adding that one.

With Bucket seats? Wow, now that is rare ,correct ?

545 three speeds made in 1970. It looks like the build sheet says Strato, which I think is the swiveling bucket seats. One of the other experts around here will confirm that if it’s true.

No swivel seats didn't start until 73 think strato is just what they called bucket seats.

I like it. I see it’s a Van Nuys car. Wish there were more photos though. Except for the rear deck, which looks like it has just a towel draped over it, the interior could be cleaned and the carpet replaced and that part of the project is done.

No, the swivel seats didn't start until Gen 2 Monte's.  Strato Buckets were what they called the bucket seats for our first Gen Monte's.  The swivel seats were an interesting thing but just didn't catch on as a popular option as time went by.
