I hear the sound of the ice on hell freezing solid....
I agree with my esteemed friend from Ohio on the origination of the ULTRA
name.
For a complete rendition, and the proper one btw, of how cars got the name
ULTRA go to

then to members , then to ULTRA Monza.
The photo album will show that my "Eastern" ULTRA Monza, is not being
restored with junkyard parts, well, maybe a couple......
