With the oil
crisis at hand, Chevrolet began reducing car sizes to counteract. The G-body
models began production designated as A-body cars in 1978, but were
redesignated as G when the new front wheel drive A-body was introduced in 1982.
The body was restyled with the other GM mid-size formal coupes (Oldsmobile
Cutlass Supreme, Pontiac Grand Prix, Buick Regal). It featured a smoother
profile than the previous models and new vertical taillights similar to the
1973–1977 models.
These designs
eventually lead to what is a Monte Carlo. GM introduced a personal luxury with
3 different specializations SS(Super Sport), LS(Luxury Sport), and standard.
Equipped with a quad jet carburetor and a 5.0L V-8 the Monte Carlo was road
ready. Special aerocoupe models 1986 were produced and in the following year
however produced 6,000. These cars are easy to care for since parts are
everywhere and cheap. Interchangeable parts meant you could possibly have a El
Camino with a Monte Carlo nose.
