It's hard to find a cooler cruiser than this 1977 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Landau finished in a fully red and white. And more than just exceptionally cool color combo, this is a V8-powered personal luxury machine with ice-cold A/C. So it's amazing a package this complete can also be so affordable. Medium Red was already a great color to have straight from GM, but even they never got it looking this glossy. That's because we believe there was an investment... in a professional respray later in life. The premium feeling is only heightened by the white landau roof. Add in big bright bumpers and iconic Rally wheels, and this coupe has a real standout presence... and this car has truly earned it. After all, 1977 was the final year for the large Monte Carlos with the '78s significantly downsized. And really we love these in extra-long form so that lengthy hood has plenty of time to artfully develop sweeping lines in the sheetmetal. And the rear fenders have a sporty line that starts just behind the door handles and don't finfish until they reach the extended taillights. And we bet you noticed these features, because the white pinstriping highlights them perfectly. And if you liked the all the white accents against the red on the the exterior, you're going to love how the color scheme is fully continued on the interior. This is believed to be the original interior, and with 96k actual miles we would have no trouble imagining that. After all, averaging less than 2,400 miles annually would mean far less seat time than the typical coupe. The pillow-top seats can sit up to six comfortably, and there's not even a button missing on the seatbacks! And while this one looks like a time capsule, right down to the wood paneling on the dual spoke steering wheel, there are a couple of subtle upgrades you'll love. For example, the radio looks retro, but it's really a modern AM/FM digital tuner with aux input. Plus, the air conditioner is now running modern R134a to keep you cool for years to come. Under the hood is a 305 cubic-inch V8. It has all the correct components, and even the factory decals, so it's hard not to believe this is anything but factory. And because this coupe has been taken care of quite well over its lifetime, this V8 fires up easily and run very nicely. Chevy's famous small block has all the right torque to move this Monte with ease, and the three-speed automatic transmission shifts like a premium coupe should. This is Chevrolet's personal luxury statement, so you get great driving features such as power steering, cruise control, and front disc brakes. The sale comes complete with the original window sticker to prove how factory-correct everything still is. This is a stunning cruiser that will keep people thinking you paid far more than its value price. So if you find this coupe as irresistible as we do, hurry up and grab this deal. Call today!!!
