Chevrolet introduced the 1970 Monte Carlo in response to the restyled 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix and to compete with the Ford Thunderbird. Both the Monte Carlo and the Grand Prix were only available as two door coupes, and were based on the mid-size GM A-Body platform, sharing the same 116 inch wheelbase with the four-door Chevelle and the El Camino. The 1970 Monte Carlo holds the distinction of having the longest hood ever installed on a Chevrolet! It was billed as a personal luxury car, or a gentleman's performance car. A 250 HP 2-barrel version of the ubiquitous small block 350 CID V8 was standard equipment, but the car could be ordered with a 300 HP 4-barrel 350 small block, a 265 HP 2-barrel 400 CID small block V8, or a 330 HP 4-barrel 402 big block V8 that Chevrolet for some reason marketed as a 400. There was also a Monte Carlo SS version available that came with a 360 HP version of Chevrolet's brand new big block 454 V8 engine with a stiffer suspension, front disc brakes, and some discreet badging. The SS-454 was a strong performer, with a zero to sixty time of 7.5 seconds. There reportedly were ten cars that year special ordered with the 450HP LS-6 454 engine. The small block equipped cars generally came with the Turbo-Hydromantic 350 transmission, while the big block cars typically had the heavier-duty Turbo-Hydrometric 400. - Leather Interior Surface - For over 23 years, we at Dream Motor Cars have specialized in providing our customers with the finest pre owned luxury automobiles through out the world.
