“Buick’s turbocharged V6-powered Regal Grand National was the quickest muscle car of the 1980s and still grabs all the attention, but Chevy’s V8-powered Monte Carlo SS owned the Grand National when it came to sales.” – Hagerty.com

The 1987 Monte Carlo SS is an iconic American personal luxury car that holds a special place in the hearts of car enthusiasts everywhere. With its sculpted exterior and sporty interior, it’s no wonder that over 100,000 of these carbureted V8 Super Sports were sold from 1983-1988. And now, you have a chance to own one of the finest and possibly the lowest-mile example on the planet.

Do you know the saying, “It’s only original once?” Well, here it is. This 619-mile, unrestored 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS is a time capsule that transports you back to the fun and frolicking days of the 1980s. With its Lamp Black exterior paint, distinctive red striping and maroon velour upholstery and trim, this Detroit iron is a true piece of Americana.

But with less than 1,000 miles on its odometer, this 1987 Monte Carlo SS is more than just a collector’s item. It’s also an opportunity to support veterans’ and children’s charities. By entering the Eighties Dream Giveaway and making a donation, you could be the lucky winner of this Monte Carlo SS, and make a difference in the lives of those who have served our country and our youth. Click here to enter now.

According to Dream Giveaway, only the battery and tires needed replacing on this MTV-era time machine. It starts, rides and performs as good as a brand-new Monte Carlo SS should. The only thing is – it has been over 35 years since this American dream machine sat in a new car dealer showroom.

So, what are you waiting for? Make a donation today and enter to win this 1987 Monte Carlo SS. Not only will you be supporting a good cause, but you’ll also have a chance to own a piece of automotive history. As Bill and Ted would say, “Be most excellent, dude!”

Digital dashes were all the rage in the 1980s, when speedometers, trip computers, and touch-screen climate-control units started making their way into mainstream production cars (especially among luxury American automakers).

The Pick of the Day is a 1985 Buick Riviera convertible listed for sale on ClassicCars.com by a private seller in Longmont, Colorado. (Click the link to view the listing)

“Rare 1985 Riviera convertible,” the listing begins. “Runs and drives well.” One of the many high-end appointments that the Riviera boasted was a digital instrument panel.

The Riviera was Buick’s first entry into what became known as the personal luxury car segment, and the nameplate was first introduced in 1963. The word itself translates to “coastline” in Italian, and in line with the wealthy target market for this model, the marketing for the Riviera conveyed the appeal of the French Riviera region which has always been known for its vacation resorts and opulence.

Today’s Riviera comes from the final year of the sixth generation which was launched in 1979 on the General Motors E-body platform. The E-body was shared with the Oldsmobile Toronado and the Cadillac Eldorado, and this marked the first time the Riviera had front-wheel drive. A few years later in 1982, a convertible was offered, but it was sold in limited numbers and limited color combinations – it was only available with a white or red exterior, and all convertibles came with red leather interiors.

According to the Standard Catalog of American Cars by James Flammang, there were just 400 Riviera convertibles produced for the 1985 model year. To put that into perspective, there were 65,305 total Rivieras produced that year. That means only 0.6% of Riviera production was for convertible models. The seller of today’s Riviera is absolutely right about its rarity.

Appointments for the Riviera were indeed luxurious for the time, complete with power-retractable top, generous woodgrain trim, electronic climate control, and of course that all-important digital dash. The seller calls attention to some rust which is seen inside both door jambs. The underbody also shows some corrosion shown in the photos, so this Riviera could use some love to make it a show piece.

“Private owner sale, reasonable offers accepted,” the listing concludes.

Whether this Riviera makes you think of the glamorous life of the French Riviera or not, there’s no arguing about its rarity in the grand scheme of things.

The seller is asking $11,500 or best offer for this Riviera. To view this listing on ClassicCars.com, see Pick of the Day.
