1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS

Description

A 1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo like this is truly an interesting vehicle. It is one of the sleekest and sportiest versions of a classic personal coupe. And this example is a standout classic that is long-term family-owned and likely ultra-low mileage.

We're told this has spent its first 35 years under the ownership of the original family. It makes for a well-kept and well-presented car where even the low odometer is believed to reflect the full actual mileage (averaging about 800 miles annually.) This good care is particularly important as you start to see how well coordinated the packaging is inside and out on this car. The factory-correct white remains bright and is possibly original. This light base means the wraparound red/black striping is quite distinctive. It sets up a nice color theme that goes well with the blackout trim and red SS graphics. The sporty urethane chin spoiler and unique nose give the SS its NASCAR-inspired attitude and an understated deck lid spoiler reinforces the subtle sporty nature.

The gray interior has a nice survivor-level style, right down to the dome light that still greets you when the door opens. The front bucket seats have a soft velour and a wide comfy feel that highlight the individual luxury you want in a Monte Carlo. Other features of this premium performance car include power windows, power locks, cruise control, tilt wheel, a center console, electric rear defogger, and Delco AM/FM radio. The factory air conditioning has even been converted to modern R134a refrigerant to remain blowing nice and cold. The driver grabs a sporty dual-spoke steering wheel, and beyond that is a full gauge panel including a large tach.

Under the hood is a 305 cubic-inch small block V8. It's a strong runner, and the four-barrel carburetor helps create plenty of old-school muscle car torque. In fact, while the second owner was only short-term, he went through the hoses, gaskets, tires, axles, battery, fluids, and essentials to make sure this well-kept classic remains a true driver. Plus, this has the best anytime driving features like the power steering, front disc brakes, and 200-4R four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and maintenance records. Rarely do you get to find an interesting classic that's this distinct and affordable. That's why you also know you have to act fast to take it home. Call now!
