The seller offers for sale a Chevrolet Monte Carlo from 1973, equipped with a 5.7-litre V8 and an automatic transmission. The car was purchased from a professional garage in Canada, where it had remained with its first owner until his passing. After import into France, the seller planned to refresh the paint and leather patina but no longer has the storage space to continue. The beige leather interior is in good condition with intact seats, carpets and headliner. The dashboard remains original and presentable. Power windows and semi power steering are fitted, adding comfort to the driving experience. According to the seller, the car attracts attention wherever it goes and offers an enjoyable Sunday cruising character.
Introduced in 1970, the Chevrolet Monte Carlo entered the personal luxury coupe segment with an emphasis on comfort, smooth V8 performance and an elegant long-hood design. Early models like the 1973 version are appreciated for their relaxed road manners and distinctive styling. Built on GM’s A-body platform, the Monte Carlo offered generous interior space and a refined ride that appealed to drivers seeking a combination of style and usability. With its characteristic front end and broad stance, it became a recognisable sight on North American roads. Enthusiasts value these cars today for their approachable driving feel and mechanical simplicity, making them appealing classics for both weekend outings and collection use. The Monte Carlo remains an icon of its era, offering a nostalgic blend of American design and cruising capability.
