138571B133378 Up for auction is a 1971 Monte Carlo SS, artially restored. This car belongs to a good friend of mine, t has been under restoration for the past 20 years and due to a recent sickness he has decided to sell off the Monte and let someone else finish it. The car has undergone a full frame off restoration with a completely sandblasted frame painted to the correct color all new chassis, verything has been replaced or reconditioned, own to the nuts and bolts. This car is a TRUE 1971 SS and we have the build sheet to prove it (see pics), t has the Z20 option. The car has the correct 3:73 12-Bolt Rear, eveling system valving, hocks, prings, nd more to completely overhaul this beauty. The original 454 has been completely rebuilt with new everything runs strong and even has working A/C with modern refrigerant. The Trans is the TH400 and it too has been rebuilt and ready to go. The car runs and drives perfect. The only things under the hood that are not installed are the inner wheel wells which he has and the load leveling compressor which may need to be gone through. I have a complete set of pics that document the restoration as seen here, ll available. The body was professionally done with all GM parts, t is laser straight and rock solid brand new, ERO Rust in this body. Paint is the correct color perfectly applied, eady for finishing. It was at this point where the work began to slow up and now needs someone to pick up and finish the car. The car and paint are set up for the original vinyl top to be re-installed. The instrument cluster was completely rebuilt by the Clock Doc an $800 investment to ensure perfect working gauges. As for trim, e has GM NOS headlight bezels, ood ornament, ailpipe tips and grill ornament. The grill that comes with the car is nice but he thinks it is not the correct year, t's either 70 or 72. All the parts to put back together minus the bumpers, ou will have to get those. He is even including a parts car with the sale to take if you want. Original Rally Wheels are with the car.Here is a good source of information on these cars courtesy of Gen 1 Monte Carlo http://www.firstgenmc.com/tech/ss454.shtml If you are local and would like to come out and take a look just email me, can set up a showing.
