Not bad, but you can bet your life the previous owner only got pennies for it.

  Ian Marsh on ABS is breaking his 24V manual Monza that ended up as a track car only. he was running it on triple carbs. he is transplanting the mechanicals into a Commadore. he also owns the old Circuit of Ireland rally Monza.

Was that the one driven by Austin McHale ? He was a absolute nutter,never seemed to learn the throttle worked both ways,flat out everywhere.Great to watch. :)
Istr,he was refused permission to replace the heavy glass Monza tailgate with a perspex one by rally a scrutineers,so he had his mechanics loosen the fixings and lo& behold it fell off the car half way through the first stage,and he drove the rest of the rally without one. I suppose you have to be a bit of a mentalist to decide to rally a Monza of all things,in the first place.  ::)
