Monte Carlo Wow!

[Bert]

Wow! Talk about modeling excitement. Here it is a 1976 Chevy Monte Carlo. Not really! It is to show you mooks that I have been building something. This is a scale rendition of my wife's first car. When she saw me building a scale version of my son's car she wanted one too. She gave me an old picture of her car and asked if I would. In an effort to make mucho brownie points I did. I go through points like you wouldn't believe. This is the Revell snap curbside kit. I got the wheels from an old promo 78-79 Monte Carlo. If anyone needs the rest of that promo send me your address and it's yours. Thanks for looking!

Very nice and Clean.
If this doesn't get you mucho brownie points with your wife I don't know what will.

Cool! That looks great! My uncle had a silver similar year MC back in the late '70s. I don't remember if it had the half vinyl top, but it definitely had the maroon velour interior.
