keith72monte Posted July 19 Posted July 19 .Hello , fellow Monte addicts lol I saw a ad for a 71 SS monte in NJ. I seen a topic on this car from march this year. Asking price before was 38,500. Now it is 30k obo. I sent a email with a handful of questions. I haven't heard back yet, but i sent email at 11pm. I should not buy another car, but i have a Monte carlo addiction. I have 6 of them. Last one a 70 SS finally to complete my life lol One big thing is there isn't a compressor underhood and i don't see a bolt hole where the compressor would mount on inner fender. maybe inner fender was replaced and compressor was pulled? I asked about a black hose line and the lever arm intact on rear control arm. I know the air cleaner isn't correct. no pics to see if heat riser is on manifold. I guess i will have to make sure the numbers match on block and go from there. Wish it had buckets ,but to have everything you want in show condition will cost over 45k lol For 30k that makes it a great driver car with a good resale for later. Or a new 15k paint job later would make it show condition. Wonder if any members in that area have check it out. 1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS454,rare car,1 of only 1919 produced,Original numbers matching LS-5 454 engine,Turbo 400 Automatic,12 bolt 3.73 posi rear.Loaded with A/C,PW,PS,Pwr disc brakes,Tilt wheel,Tach,Pwr bench seat,F-41 suspension,etc.Factory tuxedo black with no vinyl top.This is a rust free car with solid original floors and trunk.The paint job is older and showing some age but the car still looks great.The interior is in excellent condition.
