This "Limited Edition Modified Pace Car Clone" Monte SS was originality born with the "High Sport Appearance Package". But I wanted to "spice" it up some. I got this idea when I saw a real 2000 Pace Car Edition Monte SS that was made for the street. I didn't know that they were available to the public so I decided to create my own. This car is no "trailer or garage queen". I drive it in all kinds of weather; sunshine, rain or snow. This parts list is the "Aftermarket Hopups" that I have added that's not listed in the CarDomain modification library. Place a comment and I'll answer you back. DON'T FORGET TO RATE ME!! !!Thanks for reading!!

Adjustable strut springs, turn blue knob left or right for a soft or stiff ride. These act like "jack bolts" on a NASCAR racer.

Thanks for the idea. I looked up the air dam and I actually really like it! That may just have to get put on the list.
