Monte Carlo glue bomb

This is a Monte Carlo Super Stocker I rebuilt for the gluebomb challenge on Fred's. A good friend of mine from grade school all the way through high school was a huge Ed Sanger fan. He has heart problems and has found himself on a transplant list. I went ahead and sent him this model, as I knew he's probably the one person that could appreciate it as much as me! I was right. He really flipped when he opened it and I knew it went to the right place!

WOW !!
That reminds me so much of the cars I saw at Santa Fe Speedway as a kid.
Only this one looks so much nicer.......
Awesome job and gesture, Tom.

As a recent recipient of a special build, I know you made a great choice to part with your newest Sanger Monte!!!  gb
