This quote caught my attention:
""Critics have suggested that single rectangular headlamps would have given the ’76-’77 Monte nose a less cluttered, more elegant look.""

I kinda wonder what that would've looked like...! Anyone know of any mockups done that way?

LOL! That was my EXACT thought when I saw the image....... Great minds think alike?

Still ... yuck.

HOWEVER!!!!! I wonder ... would it look better if the headlights were situated such that the long part of the rectangle is vertical (vs. horizontal)?
