Dr. Cranky Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Hum, the only thing I can figure out is the year (s) that it came out. Nixon was in office? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Looks Euro, but I like it. Nice smooth lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 It looks like Sectioned to me! But it's pretty nice car anyway. Now I'm going to google and try to find out, what is it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemodeler Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) That sure looks like Harry's winter car to me- ya know so the Mustang stays nice and clean! IIRC that is the countryside near where Harry lives in Metro CHEE-CA-GO. Oh, and Bob Turner says this is not model related and blah, blah ,blah, blah!

Harry P. Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 The car is a 1970 Monteverdi 375/4 Sedan. There seems to be some disagreement as to the exact model year. All the photos posted at the Monteverdi Museum site are labeled 1970, so that's good enough for me! http://www.madle.org/emontemus.htm Who got it right: Badluck13 carsntrucks4you MikeMc trogdor jaymcminn maltsr PatRedmond Haubenschild ChrisR mr chips Mr. Moparman Modelmartin Johnny MrObsessive jon cole Erik Smith sjordan2 bbsbase Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Doh, after Harry said, it's Monteverdi, I remembered the make. I didn't remember, what was the name of that make, so it brought no results for the model, from google. I've seen some Monteverdis, and they are pretty nice cars... ...Well, some of them.

MikeMc Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Stock with a chrysler 440...The 426 hemi was an option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbsbase Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 The first picture from the link that shows the Monteverdi 375/4 is not from a 1970 model. It may be from 1974, because the taillights of a Triumph were used by later models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I've seen the coupe Monteverdis before, but this is the first I've seen the four door model. The front end had a very familiar look to it------that's how I was able to zero in on exactly what it was. Wheels are turning in my mind as I'm trying to figure out what kit is available out there that can be transformed into a model like this.............with somewhat drama free bodywork. Available with a 426 Hemi Eh?............Hmmm......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelmartin Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Monteverdi produced a mid-engine GT coupe with a 426 hemi in it. It was called the Hai. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjordan2 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 The first picture from the link that shows the Monteverdi 375/4 is not from a 1970 model. It may be from 1974, because the taillights of a Triumph were used by later models. That's what I thought, but the year ID is all over the place with differences in side markers and wraparound taillights or flush. Most variations here are all listed as 1970. http://www.madle.org/emontemus.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
