Jared is right on...I first saw Mike's Monte at the 2013 Muscle Car Nats earlier this year...and it totally knocked my socks off! The more you look at it..the more you see the fine detail it has. Platinum class...no questions there. You have to see it to believe it. Words cannot express the caliber of this car.

The panels sold by most folks don't even come close...I tried them. Get with Leo...you will not be disappointed.

No...LOL.....but it does have questionable bodywork and loads of glitz under 'da hood. But you got to step over all the trophies to see it.

ROFLMAO...

Well Mike....LOL...there is a story behind those. It would take a bench racing/beer tasting session to explain. He probably did win most of those with that car since it was redone. He also has a 55 Chevy that may have donated a few of those. The car is not really that bad...he threw all kinda money at it....but some of the work is not the highest quality that he paid to have done. The owner....on the other hand is a real piece of work.

Yeah....he does that. It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't claim to be an "expert" on these cars. I had to smile and bite my lip.

I'm about an hour away from Clarksville. I'll try to make the next one up there. That guy is so shady and lies so much I don't believe anything he says.

BINGO !!! Jared...you are the man !! That's him !! LMAO.. DID he tell you how his is Sooo rare ?? This is so funny... Yours looks great. I'd like to see more of it. We need to get together sometime at one of the shows.

He hangs out around Gainesville, Flowery Branch, Buford area. We are up around Lake Lanier. You can't miss him....LOL It's white with a tan top and he spreads his trophies out all around the front of it on the ground...LMAO

How about......clean out the ashtray really good....put some in there.....and seal it with a clear piece of lexan !!

I hate to bring this back up but yesterday at the local fall festival / car show he comes rolling in with "Mr.Bogus"....just so happens there was a gentleman there with a 70 that he bought new (really nice car) that noticed him putting out all his trophies and signage denoting it as 72 SS 454. The gent turned to me and says....."who is this clown trying to fool"....I just cracked up. Great weather, great cars, great friends...just a fun day. Oh yeah....we didn't win but Mr. Bogus didn't either...LOL !!

Figure I'll just let the old boy hang himself with it. A lot of the lookers at shows are smarter than he thinks. Somebody will call him out on it .

A grainy butt ??.........OK.....ROFL

Now THAT is what its all about.

I just seen the car again tonite at a cruise -in. He had the VIN covered where you couldn't see it....LOL. It's white with a tan top and he told me that there were only 12 72's made with a tan top.....I had to call BS on that as I seen a heck of lot more than 12 with tan tops. He priced it to a guy tonite for....get this....35,000 dollars! I about spit coke all over the place. This just gets better and better...
