I will continue my search, the only white one's I've been able to find on ebay are the ones that go on your key chain, which is cool and all but I like the actual model size.

Awesome, I'd have to do a lot of modding to my model to get it to match up to my real car Lights, tint, wheels.

Looks Good!
How ironic you posted this Thread!

Just so happens about 6 months ago I found a 5th Gen Monte...
Its actually a circle track... I'm going to my darnedest to bring it to a stocker like mine...

Today I ended up at Hobby Lobby. (Of all places) So, I happen to find a Model section... Unfortunately no 5th gen...BUT! I did happen to buy some glue, Paint etc... Maybe.. I will have it ready before spring...lmao.

Anyway... I'm going to start on it tomorrow... So, maybe in a cpl days I will have to post here as well!

Well I looked through 16 pages on Ebay.ca with no luck. I did find an earnhardt monte but the price was about $130 by the time it got to my door, which I think is a tad high, considering I would paint it white so it would kind of be a waste.

I found a collectors guild about 1 hour away from my house and they specialize in die cast models so I am going to take a trip up there and see what they have to offer
