Space: I like that Dodge Charger ! I had a 74 SE with a small block. I wish I had pictures with me to show. It was gold with 1/4 Black vinyl top. Buckets with all black int. It was SWEET.

I honestly do not see how a RWD 415+ HP Car could possibly be considered a "Grandfather's Car" regardless of the number of doors...especially when the Monte name plate came out with 200HP FWD...even at 300HP FWD.

I'd be more then happy if the commodore/g8 came out as a chevelle...more proud then a fwd Monte...bring in a GMC El Camino Ute (Maloo r8) And a wagon version and we'd be good to go imo.

Who knows, what if... what if... GM's new acquisition of a female product chief leads to our beloved Monte making a comeback?!?!

Like you say, dreams are free right?
ha ya know if I was running GM, that would the first thing I would start working on...

If I can find my pictures I'll show them to you some time. They're pretty poor quality, as they're from digital cams of 10 years ago.
EDIT: I found a small pic on my photobucket.
That's my wife's '99 Cavalier we bought brand new right beside it and the black Ram in the background was mine too. I promise I'm done jacking the thread now!

Wish I could find my other pictures. It had a functional 6 Pak hood scoop on it when I bought it and I have pictures of that somewhere. The hood was twisted from deer damage though (bought it for a fair price since it had deer damage), and I had to put another hood, bumper, grille inserts on. It also had 14" Keystone Raider wheels on it which were basically Cragar S/S knockoffs. Air shocks in the rear, of course. The back tires were nice and wide, too. Tires were shot though and I got a good deal on those 15" Chrysler Ralley wheels with tires that you see in the pic. I thought the 14's were too small, so I never went back to them. I still have the Keystones in the shed. Damn, now I really miss that car...
Also had dual exhaust with glasspacks that set off more than one car alarm. Ahhh, the good old days.
