I have a magazine somewhere that did a factory test between the 1970 454SS Chevelle ,El Camino, and Monte Carlo. So yes, your uncles could have been a 454SS Monte.

r60man Posted May 14, 2019 Posted May 14, 2019 My father had a 1975 Monte Carlo, fire engine red with a white vinyl roof and white interior. It only had a 350 in it, but it had the Rally Wheels. Boy that car looked good from every angle. When is rusted away (Pennsylvania winters take their toll) Dad was going to ask $800 for it. I told him to hold off and let me do something first. I went out and got steelies for it. Had the tires switched. Sold the Rally Wheels (even the spare was a Rally Wheel!) for $2250 (The spare didn't have a cap or I would have went for more). Now you could get a lot more for those wheels, but Dad was happy selling for getting $3050 instead of just $800.

Dragonhawk1066 Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 This is quite the concept! The GSX spoiler actually does look pretty good on the Monte!
