1985 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS review from North America
"Its one car I'm glad I bought"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The started went out and I had it replaced.
The fuel pump went out and I replaced it.
The car came from minnesota where they salt the roades heavily during the winter months. so there is rust on the vehicle because of it.
The weather striping needs to be replaced.
The factory gauges are uncool and I have replaced them with newer brighter ones.
General comments?
Runs great gets decent gas mileage. there is plenty of room for a lot of people to ride along also. There is a lot of performance parts and options for this make and model. I only wish it came with a H. O instead of the 4.3.
