The Monte Carlo was Chevrolets answer to Ford's popular
Thunderbird.
Based on the same platform as the Pontiac
Grand Prix, the Monte Carlo was a luxury 2 door coupe
with good performance and great styling.
Equipped with all the creature comforts possible at the
time, and finished with a Walnut dashboard to enhance
its classy image, the car was most at home when cruising
the highways.
With the SS version equipped with a 454cu.in V8 developing
360bhp, the Monte Carlo could reach 100 km/h in just under
8 seconds and travel at high speeds (170 km/h+) all day!
