Factory Options for “#1wldtrk”

nothing factory about it now

Factory Options for “The Ride”

The Aerocoupe Option is basically an aerodynamic "bubble" rear window that transitions from the edge of the roof to mid-way back the rear trunk area. It was born out of GM's need to compete with the more aerodynamic Thunderbird in the NASCAR circuit. For the Monte Carlo to have this aerodynamic rear window on the race track, GM had to produce them for the public (minimum 200 production units per NASCAR regulations).
The Aerocoupe Option was first available in 1986. Only 200 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupes were produced in 1986. In 1987, 6052 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupes were produced. There were no 1988 Aerocoupes produced.
