1975 Chevy Monza. I had one just like this one pictured. It had A/C, but manual brakes and manual steering. It was a little big POS. This was the successor to the Vega, and apparently, they had a lot of Vega parts left over. It had the horrible 4 cylinder with an aluminum block and cast iron head, same as the Vega. Overhead valve driven by a rubber belt, instead of a chain. What could go wrong!?

Agreed. Fomoco took a page out of the corporate GM book of shame. Take an iconic model name and slap it on a turd. See: GTO, Blazer, Malibu, Caprice.

Seen here in an earlier photo.

Looks like a Grand Prix and somewhat like a Grand Am, aka uninspiring and copied. At least with the Corvette's evolution, it was truly an original look each time, with some designs better than others.
