Welcome to another Hooniverse Weekend, and I thought I would start out with this… It os a 1975 Chevrolet Monza Town Coupe with the V-8 under the hood. The seller claims that this car only covered around 17,500 miles… Oh God, why is this car calling my name? It is the poster child for all that was wrong during this time period… Chevrolet Vega Chassis, Cramped and underpowered V-8, Velour Upholstery, Vinyl Top with Opera Windows, painted in earth tones… I’m sorry, but you will have to excuse me for a few moments…
According to the eBay Listing:
1975 Chevy Monza Town Coupe with only 17421 original miles. 4.3l V8, automatic, power steering and brakes, cold AC converted to 134a, tilt steering wheel. This baby is all factory original unmolested. Very hard car to find in this condition. That car sat for many years until I came along. I went through it from one end to the other. Car still has the original belts and hoses. I removed them for safe keeping. New tire, shocks, Brake system totally gone through, fuel system gone through, all new spark plugs and wires. Cooling system flushed. It came with the original am radio but I install a Retro Sound radio with Iphone, SD card and thumb drive for better enjoyment (orig radio comes with car as do all other parts).
Interior is flawless, no rip, tears or stains. Paint is a 7 or 8. It sat in a garage with a window by the right rear quarter and the sun made the paint crack and flake somewhat. I just preserved it because it’s only original once. It has won many awards, never seen another at any shows. See very few on Ebay, none in this condition. Have the original window sticker, sunvisor sleeve starting instructions, owners manual and dealer inspection sheet. This car was ziebarted so it has no rust ever. Car has a few dings and chips but to be expected for it’s age. Keep in mind this is a 40 year old car not a new one.
Currently the top bid for this car is $8,900 with no reserve. That is a lot of money for such a car that is generally thought of as crappy. It is nice to see one of these in this condition though, as I can’t remember when the last time I can remember spotting one. Tell me what you think of this car after taking a look at the listing here: [sc:ebay itemid=”201272078980″ linktext=”1975 Chevrolet Monza Town Coupe V-8 ” ]
