After visiting with the owner Nick a few times I am happy to announce the Johnny Benson SS #72 will be joining my collection.

Thanks Nick.

Nope......................this was "THE ONLY" GMMG car painted this color.

I agree with JD.

At one time I think I remember some discussion about a 2nd car but I never found any documents to support the claim.

#72 is the only Chrome Illusion painted GMMG that I am aware of.

There were 2 Berger built SS Camaro's built for Johnny Benson 2001 and the 2002 Chrome Illusion. I have the 2001 #46. I am thinking of selling it, look for it in the for sale section once i get it posted

Thanks for explaining 2 Benson cars. I heard a rumor that there might have been two but you know how rumors go?

Now we know for sure. Thanks. Jim

I took this photo when I met John @ the Berger Show in 2009.

Yes, the 2001 car was NBM. The 2002 car was Chrome Illusion. Both were built for him.
