  • The Mako Shark was a trend setting show car from GM and a dream of many aspiring gearhead. Rick restored this very fine example of a Maco Shark by John Silva. For more photos, videos and your regional calendar of events, visit www.NortheastWheelsEvents.com

    I am the original owner from Sarasota Florida and it cracks me up every time I hear or read the story that it was an eyesore LOL. The story I I told Randy when he came to pick it up was a little different, but what the hell it was pretty ugly when I owned it. I'm glad to see how beautiful it is now.

    The Mullet guy @ 8:36 should get a trophy if that's at a show. Probably a large trophy, best of show or such.

    Why didn't GM build them? Because the front fenders rose so high, the driver couldn't see over them ., among other visibility issues.

      Those fenders are Bill Mitchell's homage to the horse blinder!

    I wonder if he drives it even just a little?

      Rick does drive his Mako Shark. How anyone can detail a road car to this point is beyond me!
