Vehicle Overview

This 1979 Chevrolet Monte Carlo is a rare find, especially in this condition. Previously owned by a collector and mechanic, its been garage-kept, weekend-driven, and meticulously maintained. It features a mint-condition original interior, chrome Dayton wire wheels, and a new V8 engine with only 17k miles.

It's also the exact model driven by Denzel Washington in Training Day, giving it instant recognition and cultural appeal. People regularly stop us to say its their dream car and it turns heads everywhere it goes.

'79 Monte Carlos like this are getting harder to find, making this a standout example with both collector value and cultural credibility.

Mechanical

The car is in great condition and runs well.

Exterior

The exterior is in great condition overall, with paint fully intact and a smooth finish. There's minor paint distortion on the roof and a few light surface scratches but no rust or body damage.

Interior

The interior is in excellent condition, with well-preserved upholstery, dash, and trim that reflect how carefully the car has been maintained over the years.

Auto trader only uploaded half of the photos I included in the post as some were slightly larger in size. Happy to forward additional photos (including undercarriage) and a 360 cold start video upon request.

I agree we need to see pictures of underneath the vehicle to assess the amount of potential rust damage.

Beautiful unit! Had this vehicle always been in CA, if so I assume it is mostly rust free? Do you have any pictures of the underside of the vehicle? Was the new V8 a crate engine or pieced together? Does the title have any liens on it? Do you have any issues with the winner shipping the car via enclosed car carrier? Thanks!
