Speaks for itself.

What it started out as I do not know, but it’s current form is a 1974 Monte Carlo. And as they say, elegance isn’t something you add to the Monte Carlo. It’s something you find in it.

Let’s look at what makes this car so desirable:

The exterior sports a glamorous a two-tone dead soul flat black on flat black paint job.

333ci semi-christ chevrolet motor. (rounded up to 350)

Black hole interior, devoid of unnecessary distractions designed for the weak-minded.

If it was manual I would probably continue this morbid journey. Unfortunately it’s automatic, so I guess it would be a great first/last car for your millennial child.

This abomination seats two, and only two. If you need to seat more than two you must
look elsewhere.

It has a name but no one knows what it is. If you call it a Monster Carlo, It will immediately demand to be sold. If you choose not to sell, it will break down and sit in your mother’s driveway for eternity.

I am the 12th owner, you will be the 13th. Good luck!

Don’t ask about mileage. It starts, it runs. It’s history is a fable lost long ago.

Cops love this car, in fact I am often stopped by the police and asked for my autograph. I’m not even famous.

The car will be sold for $6,660.00. This is the best offer.

Up for sale is a car that will have people turning heads and taking their phone out to take a picture. This is one of the most highly customized and highest quality Mercedes Benz R-Class Dub edition Donks you will ever see. Basically every part of this car has been customized with the highest quality material, electronics and paint. Paint and body work were over $30,000, real gold plating $10,000, $14,000 DUB 28 Inch Spinners, $30,000 custom interior and audio this car is unreal. Yes the car has TVs in each exterior door along with interior doors, visors, tailgate, and rear seat this is the ultimate show stopper. The work has been done by QUALITY builders at Custom Paint Creations and the Goldmans Custom Plating, both well known in the Dub Donk world. No expense has been spared on any portion of this car and believe it or not it drives very well both highway and city driving. The paint is gorgeous and when the sun hits it there an amazing glow that is complimented with the real gold dipped trim throughout the car. The hood cowel has custom gold dipped engraved "Go Big Or Go Home" which is just what this car does.

This would be a great show car or promotional vehicle that will turn every head that passes it. Mechanically the car is very sound and doesn't "need" anything to be safely driven. Due to the ride height and suspension modifications the service suspension error light does come on in the driver information center. Additionally the airbags have been disabled due to the custom work done to the entire suspension. The headlights are incredible with custom LED CONTROLLER MODEL LT-3800-6A which change colors and give an awesome show.

Some of the audio components include

- SONY RM-X170
- MOJO 7 Inch Round Speaker All over the door panels
- Kicker ZX2500.1 Amp
- Giant Sub Woofers
- Too much to list!

Rims are 28 Inch Gold Plated DUB Spinners
Front tires only have 75 miles on them rears are excellent tread.
Custom velvet interior is incredible condition and quality.


Imperfections:
- Right rear window motor is weak
- Sunroof switch is loose but still works
- I'm not sure how to work all of the TVs and X Box since I'm not into this stuff but all remotes appear to be present. The TVs in the doors work through the X Box but I'm not sure exactly how I don't have games.


This is a highly customized car there has been 100K invested in the car. You couldn't paint the car for what I'm asking for it.

i've seen one of those a couple of times at cars and coffee, they look even more ass in person. Like the guy who designed them looked at a 917 once and tried to sculpt it from memory but also forgot to wear his glasses while doing so.
