1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Ss on 2040-cars
Wingdale, New York, United States
|
I am selling my 1986 Monte Carlo SS. The car is in excellent condition. It is all original and a true numbers matching super sport. It has a 5.0 liter 305 cid engine and a 4 speed automatic transmission. The car runs and drives great. It has 95,7xx original miles. I bought the car 2 years ago with the intentions of taking the car apart and do a frame off restoration because of how solid it is and add a larger engine and really beef up the drive train. I recently decided against doing all that because I want to buy a 69 Charger instead. I am told I am the third owner of the car. I have a lot of the original paperwork for the car including original window sticker, receipts, dealer paperwork, etc. The car has always been garage kept since new. It has had one repaint since new. The paint is not perfect but very respectable. There is maybe 1 spot that the paint is a bit dull but that's it. Since I've owned the car I had the underside of the car professionally sandblasted (floors and frame) and coated it with an anti-rust coating, installed a new carburetor, gas tank, fuel sending unit, fuel pump, headliner, sun visors, complete flowmaster exhaust system (y-pipe to tail pipes), and I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch more stuff. Like I said I was planning to meticulously restore the car hence the level of detail I was doing on the car. The floors and frame are 100% perfect. You can eat off the underside floorpans. The body sheet metal is straight. The car was never in an accident. There are no holes or anything like that on the body. Anyone who knows these cars knows how hard it is to find one this solid especially how I've protected the underside of the car. The car has a stock 3.73 ratio positraction rear end. This is a real nice and clean Monte Carlo SS. It is not by any means a run of the mill junk rot box monte carlo that you see all over the place. The car has been off the road for about a year and in a garage. I occasionally take the car out and run it up and down the driveway. The only bad thing I can say about the car is there is a small about 1 inch tear in the bottom side driver seat vinyl and the tires are a bit dry from not being driven much. I keep the seat covers over the seats to protect the actual seats. The car has never been smoked in either. Like I said, bid with confidence as this is a very nice car. I will answer all questions quickly and honestly. I'm reserving the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally as well. The car comes with no warranty. Thank you for looking.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
