Chevrolet Monte Carlo

The Chevrolet Monte Carlo is a large coupe version of a sedan model. There have been a number of Monte Carlos, based on a number of sedans, continuing to the current time. It was introduced in the 1970 model year along with a resized and similar version of the Pontiac Grand Prix. Both the Monte Carlo and Grand Prix grew in size for the 1973 model year; so much so that the Monte Carlo had the distinction of having the longest hood of any American car of the period and one of the longest ever. The Monte Carlo was Motor Trend magazine's Car of the Year for 1973.
