I'm not sure about you guys, but I LOVE...

These old Monte Carlos... I just think they ooze with style and comfort...



Last night's car show was a bit of a dud because of the threat of bad weather, but this ended up being my favorite of the night...

[bull]

  I'd rather own a 76-ish Charger or Magnum than one of those. And I'd rather eat a crap sandwich than own one of those.

Tell me how you REALLY feel...

Growing up, my brother had one of these, and I remember it riding down the road like my living room sofa... I guess I'm biased because I had good childhood memories involving this car...

There wasn't a huge selection there last night ,unfortunately.

I agree Jeff.  I dig em too.

X3 I haven't seen one on the road in over 20 years up here now. I think most of them were used up as race cars.

I sorta know what you mean...   but I prefered the mid 70's Grand Prix over the MC. 
When I sold Sinnamon way back when I got a '76 GP SJ /  400-4, T400.  Gold / tan velour bucket interior.  Really nice car.  Wrecked it after I brought it out here to NY

Kinda agreed, but just if a Magnum

Well, maybe not a crap sandwich. Maybe something else I don't like. Hoiw about a tofu sandwich?

I hate them and the 4 foot long doors.

I had a '82 Monte Carlo diesel of all things back in High School. Swapped the diesel out for a '72 Buick 350 and left the 2.20ish gears in the back. Man that thing would go down the road.

I use to beat up on my friends '74 Charger SE 318 all the time with it.

WHOA! That's saaaawwwweeeeetttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nh_mopar_fan]

I can't imagine that these didn't sell well and yet you never see them around here.

They had to be prone to be rust buckets.

I haven't seen one in years.

[magnum]

I would rather have a Magnum .

you dont see many of those anymore because they all rusted away ?  I remember seeing them after only being 3 or 4 years old and the door skins on the bottom of them flapping in the wind from rust .

[b5blue]

My neighbor bought one the first year they came out, SS 454, my God what a machine! Later in the Air Force a buddy had a all white one he had bought and delivered to him in Germany then shipped back with him state side, I've never seen one with so many options as he had! I can tell you they were cruise missile's back in the day, both racked up tons of high speed runs in superb comfort! They both had the console with the neat kinda hoop shaped shifter. I doubt many survived the first gas crunch though.

Local guy had a 78 XE for sale a couple of weeks ago. Needed a little body work,
but only had 70k miles on it and he was asking $2500. I remember it had a V8, maybe a 400 or something like that.
Dont know if that was a good deal or not.

[The70RT]

70-72 and the 78-87 were the better looking ones. The 73-77's were Chevy's Caddy's back then. Hell the Impalas looked better IMO. The only thing I liked about them was you could pick one up cheap and rob the drive train for a Nova or Chevelle back then.
