Monza


Joe Huffaker built this Monza (white with red and blue stripes) for Art Siri, Jr.'s 1980 Trans-Am effort. The car incorporated quite a few oval track pieces in the front suspension, but the roll cage and rear suspension were entirely of a unique Huffaker design. It resembles Michael Keyser's 1975 DeKon-Monza.

 

A crash involving three racecars occurred on the first lap of Brainerd's Trans-Am race on August 9, 1981. It took out Art Siri, Jr.'s Chevy Monza, Ralph Kent Cook's Camaro and Bard Boand's Corvette. 

 

The Huffaker Monza eventually underwent a body style change. The tube frame silhouette racer received an updated Firebird skin.  According to Chad Raynal, it remains that way as of 2012.
