1972 Chevy Monte Carlo - Coke Machine

An homage to Junior Johnson's '72 Monte stock carIn the early '70s, NASCAR was approaching the transition that irks us to this day: the change from beefed-up factory tubs to tube-frame, purpose-built race cars with body panels hung on them. The evolution was in full swing when Bobby Allison joined up with Junior Johnson's team in 1972. Bobby and Junior notoriously didn't see eye to eye on several points-the right choice of car being one of them. Bobby had built his own cars for years, even when driving for someone else. If he felt his design would perform better than Junior's on a particular track, he wasn't shy about it.
