    I have been searching for one of these for the longest time. My favorite color has always been the Monte Carlo in the Maroon. This car is just absolutely gorgeous and maybe its my new favorite color too. 🥰

      Daniel, so true these cars were just so big, smooth and comfortable. Bet you didn’t have your seat belt on either. Now trying to get in and out of most cars is challenging enough let alone comfort in the rear seats.

      Hernandez, you are so right. The sweeping lines on this body style make it such an iconic and much sought after car from people who want to restore them to original and also so tempting to get them modified and make them even more unique. Recently while visiting Chicago I saw a low rider in the Monte Carlo with Purple paint that took my breath away.

    I bought a used 1974 Monte Carlo. It wasn't perfect but it was in very nice condition for ten year old car at the time. It was dark blue and I added chrome wheels with B F Goodrich RWL Radial TA's.
    Again, it was not perfect but it turned heads.
    One of the nicest riding cars I ever owned.
    ( My big brothers friend had a 1976 Monte Carlo like the one in the video. The color was light blue. I remember when he bought it brand new. As a kid I remember thinking he was the coolest guy in town because he also had a blue Harley Davidson Super Glide. He also served in Viet Nam and was wounded in action. God Bless all men and women that served their countries ).

    "What do you call that?" I think you are pointing to the beauty rings.
    I grew up in the back seat of a '76. My dad's was black with black landau roof (or partial as a real landau covers the entire roof) and maroon interior. I was too young to know or care what engine it had. The first time I acknowledged my growth was the night I didn't fit lying flat between the armrests in the rear seat LOL. My old man doted on that car.
    These cars have some of the sexiest hips of all time! One of the last designs to have that female Coke bottle design.
