1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Hardtop Automotive engineers rack their brains for ways to make getting into and out of a vehicle as painless and easy as possible. In the modern era, we frequently see such features: automatic retracting running boards and electronic upward-tilting steering wheels. But the innovation around ingress and egress has been going on for a long time; consider the swing-away steering wheel on the 1964 Ford Thunderbird. Here's another solution that worked to solve the same problem: swiveling bucket seats. From 1973 through 1977, select General Motors models had front bucket seats that could swivel 90 degrees to allow for ease of entry and exit.  Indeed a very rare and desirable swivel bucket seats and even with factory center floor console and automatic shifter, This classy Monte is a solid cruiser that's benefitted from careful use only on an as needed basis, and as a result has a mere 24,639 title verified original miles. An unrestored original car with all the right boxes checked and presents very nicely, you simply won't find more muscle and luxury for the money! A believed to be 3 owner car that was parked in a block building with a concrete floor in 1982, this 1st year redesign Monte Carlo is fresh out of a 40 year hibernation and has been fully serviced and is ready to go and show...just let those swivel bucket seats suck you in. Exterior Dark Green Gold Metallic 46T code, (say that 10 times real fast!), bathes this car with the consignor stated factory paint. A few faults particularly the trunk where something had dripped on the car while in storage in a block building with a concrete floor for nearly 40 years. Also the front passenger side bumper has some neoprene cracking between the bumper and the body in the 5mph crash buffer. This car sports sleek lines with single headlights in the round flanking a narrow horizontal slight V shaped egg crate grille and fairly shiny bumper below. Just some beginnings of dimpling on this front bumper but you've got to get close to see it. A wonderful feature is a crease in the side panels beginning on the front quarter where it begins its swoop downward, eventually dying into the mid door. It picks up again on the rear quarts and ends up on the back of the car with the angled in the corner tail lights, large trunk lid, and another shiny bumper below. On top we see an Ivory vinyl covered top which has the vertical italicized glass on either side for the rear passengers to watch the world go by. Trimmings and surrounds are all excellent including the lower rocker trimming which clads this car all around, and shows no rust all around! Shiny Chevrolet Motor Division chromed spoked wheel coverings are wrapped in new narrow white wall tires. 1973 never looked so good, and you can remember your kitchen appliances in this wonderful avocado coloring, it never gets old! Interior Stressing originality cannot be done enough for this example with a swing of the doors we see light neutral ivory mixture of molded plastic/vinyl with stitched tuck and roll uppers, a vinyl door pull and a large armrest with a supple vinyl topper for your elbows. Some power window toggles are on the doors as well as the mirror joystick, door actuator lever, and the necessary ash receptacle, although looking at this original interior it was never smoked in. Slipping inside I use the swivel front bucket option, and viola! I'm in with little to no effort. I now sit on a sleek light neutral ivory vinyl bucket with some stitched and buttoned tuck and roll inserts and smooth bolstered high back buckets. The chairs, including a matching original back bench all float in a sea of goldish-green carpeting which shows no stains or fading. Grabbing on to the original wheel I peer into a square panel which is covered with burl appliqué and this panel houses 2 round instruments and a few warning lights and turn signal lights.  A green/gold viny
The 1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo marked a significant turning point for the popular personal luxury coupe. Shedding its somewhat angular, more compact predecessor, the '73 model adopted a completely restyled body that was larger, more flowing, and exuded a distinctively bolder presence. This generation aimed to cement the Monte Carlo's position as a stylish and comfortable boulevard cruiser, offering a blend of luxury, performance, and eye-catching design.
The 1973 Monte Carlo offered a range of V8 engines to suit different preferences for power and fuel economy:
All engines were typically mated to an automatic transmission, usually the Turbo Hydra-Matic 350 or 400, contributing to the car's smooth and effortless driving character.
The 1973 Chevrolet Monte Carlo successfully transitioned into the personal luxury segment, competing with models like the Ford Thunderbird and Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Its bold styling, comfortable ride, and range of V8 engines made it a popular choice for buyers seeking a stylish and capable American coupe. The "colonnade" styling, while divisive for some, became an iconic design of the mid-1970s and remains a recognizable element of this Monte Carlo generation. Despite the growing fuel crisis and impending emissions regulations, the 1973 Monte Carlo represented a confident and well-received evolution of Chevrolet's popular personal luxury offering.
