Serious performance and grand touring luxury were the hallmarks of the best Chevrolet Monte Carlos. And this classic 1972 example only amplifies those attitudes with everything from a big block performance V8, to slick red paint, to a comfy custom interior. This coupe is an upgrade from the original, so you want a paint that let's everyone know that. That's why we love this slick red paint. The modern clear coat does a great job of highlighting the crisp lines that are the hallmark of Chevy's personal luxury machine. But there's also an electric-like quality in this high-gloss application that gives this car a radiant personality. Competing with the paint for shine is the mirror-like polish on areas like the form-fitting chrome bumpers and full trim. Uniting the ideas of shine, premium, and modern aggression are the large 18-inch Intro five-spoke alloys. More performance and luxury continues inside. The interior follows the factory's premium button-top pattern, but now it has been restored for a custom two-tone. It combines the aggressive red of the exterior and expertly blends it with a muscle car-like black. In fact, the full round gauge panel and iconic horseshoe shifter will make you feel like you're in a Super Sport Chevy. While this is truly a driver's machine, it also has the space to share with family and friends. That's why this classic also accommodates with everything from new provisions for air conditioning to a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with subwoofer. The moment you open the hood, you instantly realize that this Monte Carlo earns all of its aggressive upgrades. Sure, a few lucky ones had the big 454 V8 in '72, but even those weren't as big as this. Within the dark and tidy engine bay, you'll see a 502 cubic-inch Chevrolet crate motor. It has been built correctly, including a four-barrel carburetor, GM Performance heads, and long tube headers that feed a growling H-pipe dual exhaust. Not only is this a big power machine, but it also has all the right supporting components, including March pulleys, steel-braided hoses, and a large aluminum radiator. Plus, the TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is stout enough to get all this muscle to the pavement. And as you look at the undercarriage photos, you'll see a clean and fresh presentation that comes from in a classic that has only been driven about 5,000 miles since its restoration. And with upgrades like Baer four-wheel disc brakes and modern Nitto ZR-rated tires, you'll be firmly in control to add plenty more miles to the odometer. You can tell there has been a ton of time, thought, and money invested in restoring this unique Chevy. So when you can get your hands on a classic that's equal parts vintage luxury and muscle car, you know you have to hurry on something this special. Call now!
