I bought it off of Craig's List in Phoenix in maybe Feb of 2012. I got it from a young couple in Mesa with one small child and another on the way. Other than soft brakes and oil leaks it drove pretty well. I fixed a bunch of things that the past owner had rigged since they had no money to fix an ol...

Dave, YEP! That is definitely her! How long ago were the photos taken? That looks like a relatively new paint job (it's faded now), and mine has a dent behind the driver's side door (that was there when I bought it). I also replaced the driver's side mirror with an original NOS one. I bought it from...

My mechanic said it best, the LM's look kind of like the first generation Camaros, whereas the EMs don't look like anything that's ever been on the road, before or since the LM's.

Scott, Many thanks for the back story! I had the feeling that half of the "story" as portrayed on the show was fake, and you certainly brought the truth to light. Kregg and Beth seem like real, down to earth folks. I thought that Rick Dore character was a complete boob with his disdain for...

Hello folks! I'm a fairly new 1964 Monza Coupe owner from Phoenix, AZ. The Monza is currently idle in the garage awaiting a wheel bearing repair (after the entire clutch was JUST rebuilt!) Despite this current set-back, I hope to be back on the road real soon! The engine runs great (right now), so t...
