This 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo is the ideal mix of true vintage
style, the right upgrades, and a healthy dose of added power. So
look over all the details on this cut-above personal luxury
cruiser.
This Chevy has spent over a dozen years under the same owner's
care. We have receipts documenting plenty of big investments in
strategic places. This includes giving it a nice shade of
1972-correct Midnight Bronze. Because this is a newer application,
it has a metallic element that gives this coupe a sophisticated
luster in the sunshine. It sets the right tone for Chevy's personal
luxury machine, and it also lets the sunlight show off the crisply
creased sheetmetal. The total vintage package is presented
correctly with the full-length rocker trim, Rally wheels, and
mirror-like chrome bumpers that love to hug the car's form. There
are even cool details, like how the front turning lights still have
the special Monte Carlo insignia. And the black vinyl roof goes
with the dark tone of the paint to give this one the right final
touch of vintage class.
The black roof is also a preview of the black interior. We have a
receipt documenting thousands $$$$ invested within the last few
years to deliver a fresh but vintage presentation. You see it in
the quality condition of the fundamentals like the carpet, door
panel, dash pad, and headliner. We especially like the upholstery
that gives you a classic button-top presentation and a comfy cloth
finish. This is a car that focuses on the driver, and you see that
in a dash that centers around you with equal parts luxury and
performance. It starts with sporty round gauges set in a burled
walnut simulated wood paneling. There are nice upgrades like a
Vintage Air air conditioning system (will need servicing to blow
cold again) and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB and Bluetooth. And the
auxiliary gauge trio lets you keep a better eye on what's going on
under the hood.
This was born with a Chevy 350 cubic-inch V8, and while the
displacement is the same today, the power has been seriously
upgraded. It starts with an Edelbrock suite that includes the
four-barrel carburetor w/electric choke, intake, air grabber, and
matching valve covers. There's also a light cam upgrade and long
tube headers to complete this enhanced V8 package. It's a mighty
motor that looks good set within plenty of fresh components,
including the wires and hoses. Good power is at the heart of a
great classic cruiser, and the Monte Carlo was always ready to hit
the boulevard. That's why you also have power steering, power
brakes w/front discs, and a three-speed automatic transmission that
was more recently rebuilt.
This is the Chevy that mixes power and premium style in a package
that has modern appeal. So don't miss this deal, call today!
