Who knows ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkeemobile


After doing some reading.....

Quote:
Barris also had Dick Dean, who had helped Jeffries build the two originals, make a third copy. A Monkeemobile has been used by other rock bands such as The Sisters of Mercy ("Black Planet" video)[5] and The Missing Links (a Monkees tribute band).[citation needed]
A second replica or tribute car has recently been built by a long time associate of Dean Jeffries. This new Monkeemobile now resides in Florida.
The Florida car must have been the one I seen at a Marion county show couple years ago....

Re: Hey, Hey we're the Monkees....any bids?
If that was the original and I was bucks up I would buy that in a heart beat. When I was a kid I saw the Monkee Mobile, Mike and Peter at a car show, I got Mike to sign his picture for me. I loved his hat and I always wanted to have big side burns like his lol.

Re: Hey, Hey we're the Monkees....any bids?
I thought they just had a Monkee mobile at Barret Jackson this weekend. I do not remember if it was original or a clone. I always loved watching the Monkees just to see the car!

I did see it.

http://www.barrett-jackson.com/appli...&aid=443&pop=0

Looks like it is a clone though.

Re: Hey, Hey we're the Monkees....any bids?
not the orginal, but still nice... I like the answer to one of the questions on the auction..

Q: hello, does the blower work, or is it just for show? Thanks
A: In keeping with Dean Jefferies original spec, This a "Hollywood" prop blower and does not function. However the Engine has been equipped with gears which at idle sound as if the blower is functional


so what gears did he put in the Engine?
