Vehicle Description
The result of a DIY project known as #ProjectPrestone, this Monte
Carlo Aero Coupe underwent a transformation over the summer of 2017
at the Barrett-Jackson Showroom Service Department, with the help
of Prestone and more than a dozen other partners. Among the
improvements to the Aero Coupe was the addition of more horsepower
through a new 383ci stroker engine with 415hp, a dramatic increase
from the factory 185hp engine. A rebuilt automatic transmission,
front and rear Detroit Speed suspension kits, all-new Wilwood
brakes and Edelbrock electronic fuel injection were also installed.
The replacement of a catalytic converter and a performance exhaust,
as well as new tires and wheels, provided a significant change in
power and performance. A fresh coat of black paint brought back the
original vibrant color the car had when it left the factory, along
with custom details. There were also interior improvements,
including new upholstery and hidden stereo upgrades with a new head
unit. The car has been professionally tuned, is well-sorted and is
ready for enjoyment today.
