    Nice. I'm currently doing a frame off restoration on a 71 Monte Carlo SS454.

    If only we appreciated these cars when we had them! Dream of owning a 71 Monte to Chevelle coupe today

    My first car was a forest green’71 Chevelle in 1991. This takes me back.

      yeah the late 60-70's videos have their own "vibes"... I've got some 80s laserdiscs ones I will put soon. I'm sure they will be different also. I am not sure they even put comparison and intro vids out other than general releases and those are on youtube.

    112" wheelbase for Chevelle coupes, 116" for Monte Carlos and 4-door Chevelles. The extra 4" was allocated differently - rear seat space on Chevelle sedans and wagons (and cargo box length on El Caminos), hood length on Monte Carlos. Line up an MC and a 4dr side by side and you'll see the cowl/windshield and steering wheel are 4" further back on the Monte. At one point Chevrolet considered a 4-door Monte Carlo but it would've needed a completely different frame, and been as long as an Impala with the interior space of a Chevelle which would've been a tough sell to the people who bought 4-door cars in 1970.

    With gps you don’t need a map pocket. Body by Fisher is no more.

      true but you can stuff all kinds of stuff in that pocket... a melted hersey bar... a old receipt.. it comes in handy

    The side terminal battery is a bad thing. Why would anyone want that in their car.?

    chevelle's and monte carlo's to me were always the same car

    • @autochronicles8667
      @autochronicles8667  Год назад

      Longer wheel base... so nothing was interchangeable. Thusly different

    Chevelle is now the Malibu or maybe they are discontinued.

    • @autochronicles8667
      @autochronicles8667  Год назад

      yeah Malibu... they have the Camaro and to rebadge the current Malibu to a Chevelle would be HERESY! :)
