Default 1976 Monza Mirage

Does anyone here know anything about the 1976 Monza Mirage?

I have found one and it's pretty unique.

it has a large spoiler on the rear and the fenders and quarter panels have body extensions like a old Can-Am car.

The car is white with a big Red, White & Blue stripe on the roof, hood, deck lid and the same but smaller pinstripe on the lower rocker panels.

this car is in pretty bad shape but complete.

Thanks

Yes! when it was new it did.

It's in poor shape now.

Any idea how rare, or what's it worth?

Thanks

I really don't know how rare of a car this would be. How much is the seller asking for it? Is it all original?

I had a factory small block 75 Monza when I was a kid. Only a two barrel carb, but was lots of fun when you found an empty parking lot, locked the steering left or right then-you could do unlimited tire spinning.

Fun car. I never put any modifications on it, and as I recall the drivers side spark plug was impossible to change without partially removing the engine. The Small block in this car was a real GM shoe-horn job. Very Tight.

Wasn't California the only state to get the Small block Monza with a 350? Somthing to do with the other motors failing emissions. Go figure!

Mine was equipped with the 262 V8. As I recall it made a 110 hp.
