Trivia

What did Larry bump his and then make a Monza? Might as well and made a Gremlin too.. ohh they did!.. Pinto? Maybe that is why this cast was sent overseas. But the Monza 2+2 did debut in 1975 and was treated with enamel green paint, making it a bit more poppy than your pop's ride.
Hi, Bob Rosas here, I worked with Larry on this one and once had a prototype in Hot Pink. When we did the tampo for the Christmas Ball car in '75, Aaron Cohen did the artwork for this special release.
