this car.
Seven Hills Motorcars is tremendously proud to offer this stunning
1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo in spectacular condition with 77,365
Miles and a 454ci big block engine. This Monte Carlo is in amazing
shape; it runs great, drives awesome, and looks spectacular in
triple black look. The car has great lines and is totally solid;
one can even see how clean the car is underneath in the many photos
of the car on a lift. This is an excellent opportunity to own an
exceptional Monte Carlo that is ready to be used and enjoyed at an
unbeatable value.
We've driven this car about 50 miles in the past month. During that
time that car was totally reliable, had absolutely no issues, and
was a true pleasure to drive. The car comes with three original
build sheets that are pictured in this ad.
Throughout the entire A-Body market right now, this is one of the
nicer Monte Carlos available, especially with the big block engine.
The 1971 model year is desirable and sought after out of the first
generation Monte Carlos. This car would be hard to duplicate for
anything near our asking price. This Monte Carlo looks great, runs
awesome, and is particularly fun to drive. This is an excellent
opportunity to own a classic Chevy that is ready to be used and
enjoyed at an unbeatable value. One could easily buy this car now
and sell it for more than the purchase price in years to come as
these A-Body's are appreciating fast and the market on them is very
hot right now, especially for such an nice example like this car.
The low mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car,
but also the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad, the shows the
mileage as "Actual."
As a side note, this Monte Carlo is not a dealer auction vehicle.
We hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come
from owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give
the vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and
encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car
inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We
photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel
confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the
Chevrolet, just give us a call.
Exterior
The Black exterior is in very nice driver condition. As one can see
in the photos, the paint has a great gloss, deep shine, and smooth
finish. Both doors open and shut well and feel great when you close
them. The chrome and other bright-work on the car looks great
overall with no pitting. The Eagle alloy wheels are in excellent
condition with a brilliant finish and no curb rash. The Cooper
Cobra white letter tires are literally brand new with less than 20
miles on them. There are no major blemishes that have been
intentionally excluded from the photos. There are some areas on the
hood visible at certain angles and some other small spots and
imperfections that were too faint to show in in the photos, but
nothing that is really noticeable from about five or ten feet away.
As one can see in the many photos of the underside of the car it is
exceptionally clean underneath. We have included specific photos of
the lower quarters, rockers, spring perches, and other areas most
prone to rust to show how clean this car is.
Window Date Codes
Please note that almost all of the glass on this Chevy is date
coded and original as each piece predates the car's body build date
of 09B, which is the second week of September, 1970. Original glass
is a good indication that this car has had no major accident
history and never sustained significant damage.
Driver's Front Window - UT - The "U" is July and the "T" is 1970 so
this window is original made in July of 1970 and correct as it
predates the build date of the car.
Driver's Rear Window - UT - The "U" is July and the "T" is 1970 so
this window is original made in July of 1970 and correct as it
predates the build date of the car.
Passenger Front Window - TT - The first "T" is August and the
second "T" is 1970 so this window is original made in August of
1970 and correct as it predates the build date of the car.
Passenger Rear Window - TT - The first "T" is August and the second
"T" is 1970 so this window is original made in August of 1970 and
correct as it predates the build date of the car.
Rear Window - CT - The first "T" is August and the second "T" is
1970 so this window is original made in August of 1970 and correct
as it predates the build date of the car.
Interior
The black interior of the Monte Carlo is in utterly splendid
condition. The seats look just as great in person as they do in the
photos with no split seams, tears, or excessive wear. The seat is
not worn in the typical area on the bolster where the driver gets
in and out. The gauge faces are crisp and clean and the gauge
lenses are crystal clear. The woodgrain looks nice with no
delamination. The carpet is also in great condition with no stains,
rips, or holes. This includes the rear carpet, which is often
neglected. The door panels are in great condition with no cracks or
splits and the door pulls are solid and in tact, there is one small
spot on the driver's door panel that is visible in the photos. This
car features a modern radio from RetroSound that was made
specifically for a 1971 Monte Carlo with a vintage look. Most
importantly, the dash has never been cut or modified for the
installation. The dash looks great with no splits, sun fading, or
cracks. The original package tray looks great with no warping,
fading, or sun damage. This is one of the nicer interiors we have
seen in person in a Monte Carlo and is a true study of how these
cars looked from the factory.
The trunk is very clean and nicely detailed.
Chevrolet interiors from this era are not known to wear well over
the years and the spectacular condition of this interior is a huge
testament to the meticulous care this car has received throughout
its life and another great verification of the low original
mileage.
Mechanical
This Monte Carlo is in excellent mechanical condition and it is
ready to be enjoyed. As stated above, we have put about 50 miles on
this car recently with absolutely no problems and it performed
great. The big block engine starts right away every time, runs
well, and idles smoothly. This Monte Carlo is an exceptional driver
that feels great on the road and at highway speeds. In the video
below one can observe the car accelerating on the highway up to
about 70mph, shifting through all the gears, braking to stoplight,
and going through some curves. Please note that there are no
strange noises or vibrations and the car performs quite well
overall. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to one side or
the other. The transmission shifts smoothly throughout the power
band. The car runs cool and does not overheat. This Monte Carlo has
plenty of power. The original 350ci engine has been replaced with a
454ci engine that has been rebuilt. We were told the block was
bored out/built, and later the heads were also gone through and
built. This engine seems to be very healthy. Also, the engine
compartment is beautifully clean and highly detailed as one can see
in the photos.
The car is ready to be driven and enjoyed. The horn works as do all
the exterior lights, interior lights, indicators, dash lights, and
wipers. Even detailed items like the kay buzz...for more
