The plate on the car is the one of my Beaumont. I got the Antique plate for the Monte, which is in most of the pictures.
The Monte convertible is made out of a 70 Chevelle convertible. It belongs to a friend of mine. The car has pretty well every option available.
Someone in the US , Georgia I think it was built the car. He had sold it to someone on the Vancouver Island who bought it for his wife. Soon after his wife found out that she had cancer which was all through her body. She passed away soon after that.
Darrens dad lives on the Island and called him here in Calgary as he had heard about the car. Within the next week he was on a plane and drove it home.
I think he added power door locks to the car and he made up a steering wheel from a Cutlass sport wheel and a center cap from a Vette with the Monte emblem other than that all the options were in the car.
