Any information is pretty general. PLease, be a little more specific. Looking for engine info, how many were manufactured, color codes, What?

38 Special .. any information would be nice.. what colours were available with in these years or was there a colour specific year .. Same goes with engines.. some came with a 454,350 but what years? or was it thru out the 70-72 phase. Any information would be nice. I was also told that this was the longest hood in production for that year .. True?

I owned a 72 Monte. It had a 350, 350th tranny, was silver in color, with a gray interior. Not too sure if they came with 454's or not as can't remember when the 454 came out. I know there was plenty of room in the engine compartment for a tank motor! lol

The SS had the 454. I don't know if the SS had the 350 though. Nice car. They can be picked up relatively cheap but would need work. I think they are one of thee best looking Monte's.

I have a 72, love it. Check out <a href="http://www.firstgenerationmontecarlo.com" target="_blank">http://www.firstgenerationmontecarlo.com</a>

Everything you want to know, go to forums.

I don't think there were SS's with 350's
