1986 Chevrolet Montecarlo Black

If there was a nit to pick with the 1986 Chevrolet e Carlo SS it would have to be under the hood. Its original 305-cubic-inch V8 engine was rated at less than 200 horsepower, which didn’t back up the car’s NASCAR-influenced styling with commensurate performance. That’s changed with this example, which has a felter Performance neering-built 406-cu.in. small-block in place of the original 305. The car is said to be in “excellent condition,” and it has a clean CARFAX, although there appears to be a discrepancy with the odometer reading and the mileage notes on the report. The seller believes the discrepancy to be a clerical error, upon purchase of the car, and based upon the overall condition of the car. He adds, ” ide from the drivetrain, everything else in this car is original. It would be impossible to maintain that kind of condition.”
