My father and I restored this 1974 Monte Carlo Landau as a project in 2010. It is in great condition for its age, and has had a lot of restoration work put into it. I took good care of it as a project car, and now it’s time for someone else to enjoy it. This car works just fine and is a real pleasure to drive. It needs more restoration work put into it, as it has been about 5 years since the initial work was done.
Below are some of the major details:
-This motor was taken apart, and sent to a NAPA machine shop to be bored and cleaned. It is the originally motor, and was rebuilt in 2010. There are less than 7 thousand miles on this rebuilt engine. The speedometer read 119k miles when it was purchased, and now sits at 126k miles.
-The motor features a rebuilt Holley 4 barrel carburetor
-This famous Fisher body was sanded down multiple times and repainted. There are some small rust spots that have shown through our initial bodywork. The chrome bumpers and aluminum effects are intact and in good condition.
- The interior was taken apart completely, professionally insulated with sound insulation, and a new carpet was installed. A new radio unit was installed as well. A dashboard cover was installed to cover up the old dash, which had a few small cracks in it. Everything else about the interior is original.
-The wheels are aftermarket Cragar style rims fitted with low profile tires. These were bought new, and have some signs of tarnish from weather & age.
-There is no air conditioning unit in the car, it was removed before I owned the vehicle. I never replaced it because I preferred to drive with the windows down. The heater core was replaced and works just fine for the winter months.
-A custom speaker system was installed with a pair of 3” Rockford Fozgate speakers in the dashboard, 5” Clarion speakers (& tweeters) in the doors, and Menace 7” speakers above the back headrest. The head unit is Alpine.
-There is one additional spare tire from the original tire set of the car.
The car comes with its original title and keys (plus spare keys). No trades please. Please contact me through email if you would like to know more about the car. Thank you.
