Wow, thanks for the info on the tires Rusty! The plain Eagle GT Style were used for sure on the 85-87 Monte SS's (maybe even earlier). I think the GT+4's were 88 only? I had an 86 Monte SS with its original Eagle GT's and babied them to try and preserve them. I was just looking at the car this morning thinking I should remove these originals but I HATED to think theat the car would have to sit on BF Goodrich Radial TA's or something. I am glad to know that they are repoping the Eagle GT's. Just out of curiosity, what do they run per set?

Rusty, maybe they already know, but you should go over here and let them know.

I had an 88 Monte SS New. I expected Eagle GT+4's but it came through with regular Eagle GT's.

It was built torwards the end of production too. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Nice!

Strange as this may sound, I think G-bodies are one of my favorite cars to drive. I had a relatively low mile '85 Regal at one time, and I think it was the best daily driver I've ever owned. Something about those cars just &quot;fits&quot; me. Very comfortable, resonable handling, decent ride. The only problem is that tight, like-new examples are getting hard to find these days.

Congrats on finding such a clean original!.
Don't forget the paperwork for this car is available from George Z. @ GM Vintage Services here in Canada..

If you're talking to him, pass on a hey to George and remind him it's been too long since he's dropped by this site!.

Congrats and great color combo. I had an 88 Monte Carlo SS years ago as well. white over maroon interior, no ttops and I loved it. I wouldnt mind getting another one as well. But I would probably do a few modifications such as a lower stance and some suspension upgrades if I do get one again at some point.
Good luck with yours!

Cars earlier than 1977 model year are difficult to verify as GM Vintage only has microfilm for vehicles built in Canada or built in the US and shipped new to a Canadian dealer..
But Vin specific, RPO and as built info is on file for 'almost all' 1977 and newer North American GM product regardless of where built or shipped new and great for cool GM cars built over the last 35 years now coming of age like these Monte SS cars, '77-81 Z28's, Grand Nationals etc!.
