Here you go folks, a 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe! This SS Aerocoupe is a good solid project, and something that let's you build it the way you want it! These things are getting harder and harder to find, and as you know, the Aerocoupe was a two year car only. The rear window in these things go for big bucks, and this one is perfect.  

It has the original 305 SBC with 200R auto trans. The engine appears to have a valve train noise, and not sure what condition the trans is in. So assume both need rebuilt or replaced. Low mileage 305's in this area sell for approx $400, so it would be pretty cheap to get back on the road. Both the engine and trans were being disconnected for removal, when owner lost interest. All emissions equipment is there and in the trunk (picture shown). All brackets appear to be there as well, and engine bay looks good. It will need an exhaust system from manifolds back. All computer equipment is there to make for an easy 305 swap, or rip it all out and stick in a 350 SBC, whatever direction you want to go.

Body is real nice for having sat around. Only found a few small rust spots (eraser size) in the lower pan of the spare tire well, other than that, trunk looks great, and has the original jack and lug wrench, but missing the spare. Front nose cone is in great shape, and the upper front nose cone mount is solid (these usually rust out quick). Doesn't appear to have ever been hit. Frame and underside look real good too. Car appears to have had one repaint a while ago, and the flat surfaces on hood, roof, and deck lid have faded.All glass is good, door glass is manual, and the rear aero glass is perfect. The paint on the drivers side quarter below the quarter glass is cracking. Drive it the way it is, or sand and paint it the way you want it! Replacement door handles are in the trunk that look new (also pictured).

Thanks for the questions already. However per the description, I will not part this SS Aerocoupe out. You want to buy the rear glass or nose cone, you'll have to buy the whole car and you can part it out. I certainly appreciate the math lesson one gentlemen provided me on what I can get for this car by parting it out, but again not interested in either :).

The interior is in decent shape, but you may want to replace the dash pad (your choice), and needs a rear bottom seat. All seat belts are there, bucket seats and console. Shifter is not hooked up, and the console just laying in-place. The upper door panels are faded, as well as upper seats front sitting in the sun. Keep them the way they are, dye them, or have it all reupholstered. Again, your choice.

The gentlemen that owned this Aerocoupe, had quite a few Monte's, which were all in great shape. He's just decided he's had enough, and moving the projects he know's he won't get too. This is a project car, but can be put back on the road with little effort! This thing is to nice to part out or make a race car out of, so please don't ask me to sell parts off of it. Good Luck!

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
