Mike Roy's Monte Carlo never gets old to look at. Even though he's putting up for sale, I'll always remember it as his car.

Beginning the new year with something exquisite I found.
And I found when I was looking for different cars of the sort, which is...interesting.

I've seen in in person and have met Nick a few times. Its a shame, but I can't wait to see that motor in his 1928 Plymouth.

More stuff we haven't seen yet - well, assuming.

Man, I wish I had one of the original GT350's. Such a good looking car. Wouldn't mind having a GT350R, too!

The problem with CorV8s (that's what they usually call V8-swapped Corvairs--"Corvin8er" is a tortured pun that's hopefully unique to this build) is that they reconfigure the standard gearbox so that the engine drives what used to be the tail of the mainshaft, so while the standard engine in its standard location is something like 14 inches away from the differential centerline, the V8 in its new location is something like 24 inches away, thereby eating up a great deal of the passenger compartment. It's a shame the third member (the bit that houses the differential) can't be flipped so that the engine can be placed in the middle but still be the same 14 inches away from the diff centerline. If I were to go the CorV8 route, I'd likely end up using an Audi or uprated Renault 'box--or a 930 (early 911 Turbo 4-speed) or ZF 5DS (Pantera 5-speed) if I were burning money--and be able to stretch my legs.More stuff we haven't seen yet - well, assuming.

I'm liking that Taurus wagon, now that is you turn a soccer mom's car into a proper lean & mean sports machine.
Couldn't care less about that PT Cruiser, though. It only has a new set of wheels, what sort of lazy effort is that?

@Heldenzeit I'm actually surprised you shared a PT Cruiser in here. Just for that, I'll share a proper one, even more.
This, ladies and gentlemen has been customized into a wagon. And yep, you're seeing it right. The very dear Boyd Coddington worked on this, which is, hard to believe. Knowning some of his cars are quite, well done, ever since his demise.
This should be at least passable, considering most PT cruisers modified are pretty crappy.

It just does to show that RS Watanabe wheels look good on everything.

However, I wouldn't say all of them are muscles...PT Cruiser I'll allow, for now. Bt, since I spot a Challenger, here's another example.

- If I had the money
So I found this today for sale for $3,100. They say it runs and just needs work done on the carb. I'm curious as to why it says Dodge even though it's a Chrysler. But it does have a 440. Either I want it and my dad wants it. So we might get it.
