For Sale: 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in Ft Worth, Texas

A bold style, an upgraded suspension, and enhanced V8 power make this 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo instantly attractive. And because this continues the spirit of a true vintage cruiser, this coupe is a lot of fun on those weekend drives.


The red paint is an upgrade later in life from the original Code 17 Shadow Gray. It's clean, comprehensive, and sleek with just the right touches of age for a well-respected classic. And these hardtops always look good with an extra hint of boldness. And the full package is attractive with clean glass, good rubber, and bright chrome bumpers that love to hug the coupe's form. The whole exterior gives a very vintage impression, right down to the rally wheels. And we really like how the black streak in the rocker trim coordinates with the well-fitting black vinyl roof. It just shows that this Monte Carlo revels in the look of a true classic that's truly premium.


The black vinyl top outside is also a preview of the full black interior. We love the details, like how the texture of the seats matches the door panels. And there's even a new carpet kit that comes with the sale. This has cool vintage details, like the walnut-style wood-like trim. Even when this was given additions, it remains period correct. There is an under-dash A/C unit (currently just for display) and the upgraded AM/FM/cassette radio is still a classic Craig unit with a separate equalizer. It's very much a driver-quality setup, and that also means it's easy to hop in and enjoy on a whim. And that's because this one is meant to be driven. Front bucket seats, a desirable center console with horseshoe shifter, factory tach, and a grippy steering wheel are there to make you love getting on the open road.


Under the hood is the 400 cubic inch V8. It is the correct spec for the car, and the correct casting date makes us believe it is most likely original to the car, but without a VIN on it, we can't be 100% sure. But more than just history is what makes this one attractive. It's an upgraded package, now with a Holley four-barrel carburetor replacing the original 2 barrel, an Edelbrock intake, Moroso valve covers, and headers feeding the dual exhaust. The undercarriage shows newer investments, like UMI sway bars front and rear, adjustable upper control arms, poly bushings, and newer springs. Plus, features like a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering and power brakes with front discs give this a confident driving attitude.


Complete with owner's manual, this is a vintage, powerful, and all-around attractive coupe. So don't miss this Monte. Call today!!!
