A white 1987 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe with T-tops, a maroon interior and an odometer reading just over 25,000 actual miles is for sale at Freije Auctioneers as Lot 78647 in The Fall Big Boy Toy Auction hosted by The Auto Dealers Exchange, set for October 30–31, 2026, in Indianapolis. The Aerocoupe was Chevrolet’s slippery answer to the high-banked ovals of NASCAR, and this one presents as a clean, well-kept example of a car that exists because NASCAR needed a faster nose and a steeper back window.
A Street Car Built for the Superspeedways
The Aerocoupe existed for one reason: speed at Daytona and Talladega. To homologate a more aerodynamic body for NASCAR competition, Chevrolet fitted the Monte Carlo SS with a dramatically steeper, bubble-style rear window and a shortened decklid, cutting drag at the back of the car. Only around 200 were built for 1986, and production climbed to just over 6,000 for 1987, the final year of the Aerocoupe. This white 1987 example at Freije shows off that signature fastback profile from every angle.
Classic SS Looks in White and Red
The white paint is set off by the red pinstripe and lower accent striping that wrap the body, along with the SS badging on the fenders and rear fascia. The aero nose, color-keyed bumpers and decklid spoiler give the car its unmistakable late-G-body stance, and the side-profile photos in the Lot 78647 gallery show straight body lines and a tidy, consistent finish.
T-Tops Add Open-Air Appeal
The T-tops let the next owner go open-air without giving up the coupe’s sleek roofline. With the panels out, the cabin is flooded with light, and the auction photos show the openings and surrounding trim in good order.
A Rich Maroon Interior
Inside, the Monte Carlo wears a coordinated maroon cabin with bucket seats, a center console and a floor-mounted shifter. The velour upholstery, door panels and carpet appear well preserved for a car approaching 40 years old, and the rear bench looks to have seen little use. Buyers can study close-up shots of the seats, door cards and headliner area on the Freije lot page.
Gauges, Comfort and Convenience
The driver faces the SS instrument cluster with a tachometer and full gauge package, and the dash still wears its Chevrolet script and a factory label on the sun visor. The listing notes cruise control, air conditioning, heat, power windows, power locks and power steering, a combination that makes this Monte Carlo SS as easy to drive on a weekend outing as it is to show.
High Output V8 Power
Power comes from a 5.0-liter, 305-cubic-inch small-block Chevrolet V8 backed by an automatic transmission with overdrive, the setup that gave the SS its smooth, torquey character on the street. The car rolls on SS wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle GT tires, a period-correct look for the era. Mechanical details and any additional information are available from Freije Auctioneers.
