First. a little history: Hollywood automotive stylist. Dean Jeffries. created one of his most iconic designs "The Monkeemobile". in preparation for the 60's Monkees television show.  Dean only built two Monkeemobiles. but as a precaution pulled a set of molds off one of those two original cars. In later years. the builder of this car Eric Sharp.  long time associate of Dean's. purchased those molds. And this Monkeemobile was born!

 Eric used a 1965 Malibu as the donor car. the vehicle is registered as such. It sports a hot 350 Olds V8 and TH 350 automatic transmission. which came from Dean's shop. Over the years there have been other replicas. but by virtue of those original molds pulled directly from Dean's hand built car. this is probably one of  the finest recreations to date. As an added bonus Eric purchased and incorporated in this car many parts from the #2 show car which were removed during it's restoration. These include the Cragar rims. ash parts and gauges. The odometer now shows 11. 49 miles. only four thousand of which. were put on since the gauge cluster was installed in this build. This car. as did the two originals. has that legendary non funtional 671 blower and fully functional side exhaust pipes. with cut outs to a rear exhaust system. Wait til you hear those side pipes roar!!! 

 The second and third pictures show Dean with Eric in front of his Hollywood shop. as Dean goes over the build personally. before the finishing touches. logos etc. were added. The fourth picture shows the autograph from Dean on the glove box. although as I watched him sign it. Dean did misspell "Monkeemobile". Never the less it's the signature of the "Master Stylist". Don't miss the chance to own a piece of automotive history.
