Smile > 87 Monte Carlo- Muscle Car - $25000 Florida + more Monte's <

Hi Member's,
What do you think of the below Monte S.S. ?
I wish I was in the position to buy it, but maybe one of our member's is ? I know that I could not built one like it for $25K
Beach Bum `Mike wants to call him & see if he can trade his Eclipse G.T. on it (lol)
I'd love to just test drive it or hear it run...
What do you think of his asking price for everything he has in it ?
Post & let us know > `Thanks

It's definitely a nice build, but imo way overpriced. Unless there has been additional work done not mentioned in the ad then a lot more needs to be invested. It looks like the money was invested in engine/trans mods, but what about the frame? What about suspension? What about brakes? What about the differential? This car needs a lot more $$$ invested to be 'complete' and reliable. Even with the engine/trans combo it has $15K would be the very MAX I would consider paying for this unfinished project.

Thank You `Mike for sharing your thoughts/opinions....I showed this Monte to my grandfather & he stated the same issues that you did.

You sure know your auto's & about built cars...Thanks much for sharing your knowledge on this thread & with all our member's...

If I had the $'s to be in the position to purchase something like the above, those are questions I would be contacting the owner about..Now, I'm still in auto dream land

2005 Chevy Monte Carlo LT 66K - $5000 (Temple Heights Rd, Tampa, FL 33617)

<section class="userbody"> <figure class="iw">

</figure><section id="postingbody"> MUST SELL!!! Asking $5,000 or your best offer.
2005 Chevy Monte Carlo LT 66K miles, silver, v6 automatic, all leather, ac, moon roof, power windows and seat, new tires. This is such a great car worth more than we're asking for, but must sell due to moving out of the area.
I bought this car in late 2007 with 14,000 miles on it. This car has been so good to me, and I'm sure will make someone very happy. If you're interested give us a call and come by to look/test drive it out.
(727) 247-2624 ask for Rachel re:car for sale. </section><section class="cltags"><!-- START CLTAGS -->
