what about the re-issue of the LRW in the coca cola version ? it come with everything to build a bone stock A100 and will leave you with the complete running gear of the LRW, including its subframe and with a coupon it can be had for under 10 bucks -

those are some nice monacos for sure but what this thread is missing is a real high powered car i mean, the hemis are great and have more then enough power to deal with whatever chevies you might encounter out on the open road but what if you had to chase someone in a hemi cuda, or a challenger or a charger or even a duster with a 440 shoehorned in it? how then will the strong arm of the law keep up ? behold...the monaco interceptor, powered by a Twin Turbo Supercharger Dual Overhead Cam 426 HEMI (TTSDOC for short)
