"The Shark"
As I was writing a reply to the "black denim" thread I remembered something I hadn't thought of for years. Does anyone remeber "The Shark"? Chevy brought these out around '75 or '76 when Jaws was the rage. It was a black '75 or '76 Nova with gold trim and a spoiler. I think it had a plaid interior. It was another one of those trim packages that didn't add anyting performance wise, just a bunch of stickers and a few bolt on pieces. I worked with a guy who had one, and it didn't do much for me......
Another one......the Monza Spider..........I almost bought one of these. it was white with a big spider sticker on the hood. I was 16, what did I know?

Never heard of it and according to the text, it wasn't produced by GM. Not a fan of '76 Nova's but still interesting.
I remember seeing the Monza Spider too, only black with a blue spider I think, never saw a white one.
