1975 Monte Carlo

Super nice build, I love this kit but hard to find here now. Great work on the 3D printing!

Beautiful build and you gotta love the round headlight Monte Carlos from this era. I have four of the Revell 77 Monte Carlo kits and this is quite interesting.

I modeled in my CAD the whole front from the front edge of the hood forward including the bumper. The rear, I modeled from just below the trunk lip, tail lights and rear bumper. Both 74 and 75 are done and working on a 73 conversion. Last I will do a 76 conversion which will be super minor, basically grille and tail lights as I believe the bumpers are the same as the 77. If not, they will be corrected also. My goal is to have 73 - 77 Monte Carlos. I have 5 Revell 77 Monte kits to pull it off.

I also made a bench seat to fit in that kit because I never had those fancy swivel buckets. My version 4 now has clear lens headlights.

Tremendous work!     ...and the parts show it!

Great looking Monte.  My favorite color is blue so I'm really liking this one.

I've been looking for another of these since I built one a year ago or so, but they're as hard to find as hens teeth. Although a very simplified kit the box art just doesn't do this kit justice.

Very nicely done. Your 3D work is superb.

Very nice build. Thank you for sharing. I was on the hunt for a new ride in '85. A mid 70's Monte was on my short list. I found a dark blue one for sale but the front suspension was bent bad due to an encounter with a ditch. I passed on it.

I do have the 77 snapper in my stash and it will be done in dark metallic blue.

Beautiful build!

Very nice conversion and build.

The mid '70s Monto Carlo is one of the few American cars I remember as a 1:1 from my youth, we had someone living down the road who must have worked on one of the USAF bases and they had one in the early-mid '80s.

working on the 73 conversion...it's a little more complicated but hoping to have it done soon. Yes I sell them you can message me if you want 1.

Looking for 73 monte, any available? Contact me at stbsteeler@comcast.net

Love this!  I'll always be crazy about Personal Luxury cars. I wish there were more available.  I know there are some resin kits (which look great btw) but they are a bit too pricey for me.   A great article on this class of cars was done a while back by Tim Boyd in Scale Auto.

Very nicely done...Cool Monte Carlo.
