Repstock Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 That's so great, looks jus beautiful. I got a soft spot for a showroom build and you hit a home run. love it. Strange...I live in Columbus, Ohio, home of the Buckeyes, but some of the nicest people I've met in this hobby are from Michigan, home of the Wolverines. This hobby is really cool! P.S. I'll be rooting for you in your season opener.

Repstock Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 I'm a Spartan fan myself lol but thanks we are pretty kind up here usually. I don't know why I didn't consider that possibility. You've got to feel pretty good about the way things have been going for the Spartans lately! I think i like this one more than the 77'monte carlo,did you use the model king 73'nascar monte carlo for this build?. This is a modified Wheels of Fire '77.
george 53 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 As the owner of a 75 Monte, it looks like the real thing Bro! It came out VERY nice!!!!
dig Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I recognize the 70 monte engine bay.. looks great!!! How did you do the headlights?
Dave Van Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Very nice work on that conversion!!!! I was lucky in that my buddy bought a 77 when we got out of HS......but his looks about like yours...or my model of it does!!! Mine is just box stock with new wheels.

bsoder Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Magnificent ! looks spot on B) Edited July 27, 2012 by bsoder
Guest Johnny Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Awesome replica of a '73 "G"-ride ! Say , is that a 402 or 454 under that Cherry Fire red hood ? That would be a 454. Beautiful build but it looks more like a 74 than a 73 great hubcaps were did you get them ?? Nope, the 73 was a one of a kind nose. 74-77 had the a different configuation.
