Description
?? Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1972 – V8 350ci – Matching Numbers
31 CV fiscal horsepower
I am selling my 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, originally from California (imported in 2021). The car is therefore in France in my name on a historic (collector) registration certificate.
This is a car in good overall condition for its 54 years. The paintwork was redone in its original colour (Mohave Gold) in the US in 2018; it is sound and very pleasant to drive. It starts and runs impeccably, and the automatic gearbox works perfectly.
Appraised at: €28, 000
Asking price: €22, 500, reasonably negotiable
Part-exchange possible, preferably for a convertible

? Good to know / Transparency
Sold with a stock of spare new parts.
This is not a concours-condition car: the front passenger-side floor pan was repaired in the past but not to a professional standard, so ideally it should be redone in the future.
? A file of 250 photos, videos, invoices and HistoVec report will be sent. This file allows the car to be seen from every angle.
As you can see from the photos, the racing stripes shown in the video have been removed.
