A diecast version of his car?

1 18 SunStar 2000 Monte Carlo SS PaceCar Red | eBay

 

I never realised they were so cheap. I always thought they were closer to $100. Definitely an option now! If he doesn't like it then I'll just swipe it and put them in my car. haha

Not a bad idea. Could probably use one. I'm sure the dash is somewhat faded.

When he bought the car it already had one otherwise this would be a must.

Basically he keeps all his cars stock because he doesn't have the extra money to spend on them. He did get headlight covers when he bought the car from a guy but he has never ever had them on it. Could possibly need a new air filter anyway so I could go that route.

By the way I love your rims. I have a set on my car and love them. They are the black with the polished ring.

Haha. Nice. That would be a good idea though. It's the thought that counts! lol

Definitely am thinking about it. Actually was already looking at those before I came on here. lol. I thought he would appreciate it.

 

I have a sunstar version of my car. The detail is amazing

 

I don't have the Monte, but I have the Sunstart 3rd gen Camaros. Very sharp stuff!!

 

I know this is a shameless, plug, but hey, I gotta throw it out there

Give your dad some Monte Carlo projects.... I have a few things things that could be handy:
https://montecarloforum.com/forum/pr...ge-sale-39958/

- '04 L26 3800 Series III Aluminum Upper Intake (great for those looking to go away from the nylon/plastic UIM) $40 Shipped
- Pair of '98 front Camaro/F-body calipers - $40 for the pair + Shipping (guessing $20) - These are salvage calipers and are in need of clean up and probably best to rebuild them.
- WBS Shorter Dog Bones (never used - brand new) - $30.00
- Monte Carlo Trunk Trim - $25.00 (I believe 2001 actually has this, if not, great add-on)

 

What is this Monte Carlo trunk trim you speak of?

 

This is what he's talking about: '04 Monte Carlo SS - Trunk Trim

Earlier 6th Gens had it, then GM stopped putting them in the trunks.

 

Oh. I think my dad has one there but it doesn't look like that one.

 

Is he a NASCAR fan? Get him a steering wheel cover:
