Back when I was looking for my first car, I wanted a Monte SS or a Grand National in the worst way. I ended up getting a regular 1986 Monte carlo with the V-8 and I loved that car to death.

Thats a beautiful Monte in the perfect color, good luck with your sale!

She isn't perfect has a cracked dash top and could use a clear coat dummy friend covered her up one winter with a tarp when he took it out of the garage, and the tach needs to be changed stoped working. But still get's people looking at her drving by and she run's and sound's great.
No fluid leak's now that I did the heater core. I have more pictures of her just couldn't post them all in the add. I had an 84 Monte with a v6 that was a two tone and mint but this one is something else. Don't know what gears they put in it but definatly like's to launch and spin tires.

Here are a few more shot's of her. Showing the milage and interior as well as the Engine compartment. You can see I was just replacing the flasher unit which had died. Wanted to make sure she was ready to drive away for anyone that buy's her. Willing to take any picture you want to show her condition. BTW have Chevy floor mat's for her just took them out and placed them in the sun to get them to sit flat again.

[jgc61sr2002]

Very nice Monte. Good luck with the sale.:D

Had her up over 100 once just for a test to see how true and smooth she ran last year but never been raced or abused other than an ocasional burn out launch to show off. Never on a track and no mod's other than the exhaust has been made.

These pics show the interior of the trunk with the factory T-Top covers in it and the spare tire which was only used once before the Hankook tire's went on it.

Tomarrow if it isn't raining I will take pics with the T-Top's off and show them in the factory covers. And maybe some underside pic's to show how clean it is underneath.

I owned one of those,minus t-tops, for 6 years and sold it 2yrs. ago. Really enjoyed it and was always recieving compliments on it.

Dont expect miracles in the 1/4 mile. Im pretty sure they were mid 16 second cars.

[Haggis]

Very nice!!! They are on of my favorite also, I remember seeing one back in '86 in 'Midnight Cherry' (I think that was that color) and I thought that was the best color ever especially in the G body.

[ckadiddle]

Freaking awesome! I love those SSs. You've taken great care of it!

Considering the materials they used back then she has held up pretty good but as I said there are a few odd's and end's to make it perfect but seeing I am trying to sell her I don't want to invest a ton of cash to do it. The weather seal's for the T-top's, doors, window's and trunk was close to $600.00 alone and a couple of day's strip down and work to get it ready for the new one's.

Here are some pics with the T-Top's off and infront of my Marauder.

Just set it up on Autotrader.com should be up and running in 24 hours. There is one in NY state with only 3,250 miles on it but no T-tops but he want's $30,000.00 for it. I think that one should go to a collectors auction if it is a perfect as he says it is.

A lot of you guys love this stuff so figured I would get the info for you seeing a few asked about performance.


The Monte Carlo SS came into production as a direct result of Chevrolet's desire to win in NASCAR. After much testing and wind tunnel work the new Monte Carlo SS was born.
It was first outfitted with a base 305 V8 in 1983 which only produced a meager 165 horsepower. Realizing that it needed more, in 1984 Chevy outfitted the car with a Piggins designed 305 which wore the nameplate L69. The new engine, with it's aluminum intake manifold, 795cfm Quadrajet carburetor, Cross-fire Camaro heads and Corvette L-81camshaft, was able to produce 180 horsepower. Furthermore, the steering box on the SS is a desirable 16/12.7:1 variable ratio recirculating-ball GM unit. The F-41Suspension is from the Camaro Z-28. The transmission was the TH350c with a rear gearing of 3.42:1.
http://www.montecarloss.com/SSThunder/83seats1.jpg Only subtle changes took place over the life of the Monte Carlo SS. The SS logo on the head rest was only offered in 1983-1984 on the SS's with the bench seat option.
In 1984 the car displayed large gaudy graphics on top of a white or blue paint scheme. Color options were limited to white on blue and dark blue on blue paint schemes.
In the 1985 model year the graphics were toned down and included new multi-color pin striping to set off the paint scheme. The car displayed 15 inch steel rims mated to Goodyear Eagle GT tires. The car was equipped with the TH200-4R 4-speed overdrive transmission, which allowed the car to cruise comfortably at highway speeds with the new 3.73:1 performance gearing.
By 1986 the car displayed aluminum rims borrowed from the 1981 Camaro Z/28 as well as bucket seats and a third brake light. In the late 1986 a small amount of Monte Carlo's began to emerge sporting a new rear window. GM had designed a more aerodynamic Monte Carlo SS for the racing scene, and the rare Aerocoupe was born. By 1987 the car underwent a few changes. A more colors options were added, as well as a new SS decal design which carried over into the 1988 model year. Gone was the 85mph speedometer, replaced by the much deserved 120mph speedo. Also, the rear tail lights and bumper cover changed to a more rounded design which added smoothness to the rear end and improved the overall appearance.

The Arlington, TX. plant produced the SS from 1983-1988, while the Pontiac, Mi. plant also built the SS in 1987 and 1988. Canadian SS's were built in the Oshawa, ONT Plant from 1985-1987.

A father and son was supose to come from Marryland because they had just totaled the one they were restoring did a no call and no show.

Had a guy call from Alabama that always wated one with T-Tops instead of a hard top.

Had a few ask why I was selling it so cheap if it is what I list in the add.

Several people stoped by to look at it and admire it that have owned them as well but I guess this economy is making it hard to sell anything.

Glad I am not in business right now trying to sell classics and collector cars.

[Stranger in the Black Sedan]

Don't you love it? I hate the call and no shows, that pisses me off to no end.
