[GunnarNiska95]

My dad has a black 1977 dodge monaco brougham 4 door with red velour inside he bougth it new its a wery nise and big car

[daniel55645]

i do love those. i like the style right before it a little better though

[aviatorz2fretz]

I grew up with this car. Someone hit it from the back and since then its been in storage. My dad passed it down to me. Im hoping to fix it one day.

wait... are u saying that the slant six sounds that good?... dam... i was aiming for one here in peru for $3500 but thought that would be hard to get the v8... but if the six sounds like that i will leave it....

[epicsr]

They used to wreck these by the hundreds. Think of Dukes of Hazzard, the A-Team, Knight rider, and all the other mindless American early-to-mid-80's tv action series and movies.

I have my eye on a red '73 2 door Polara, in mint condition. Now that's a biiig Dodge.

The early 70s fullsize MOPARS are are nice too, but the "small" 77 Monaco is already a tight enough fit in the garage

:-D

[MAVERICKALP]

225 sounds nice..

[fenderbaum2]

Even better now that the carb is tuned and the vacuum leaks fixed ;-)

Exhaust a cherrybomb.

I hope you realise how lucky you are to have one of these.... I have been wanting one for years but here in the UK they're harder to find than a flee on an elephants ass...... Take good care of it!

[fenderbaum2]

Will do, they are pretty rare around here too, I've seen only 3 or 4 different 75-78 Monaco/Coronet/Fury sedans in Belgium, so far...

[RAS4915]

are you going to leave the slant six in it or put in a V8?

[fenderbaum2]

I was thinking of a V8 originally, but the 225 Six will do. It's in tip-top condition; and the cost for swapping in a big V8 would be too much at the moment.

And it would make the overall cost of the project too high for a "simple" 77 Monaco sedan...

you are lucky to have found one a 77 monaco is my dream car to make like roscos car i have found a few but my dad won't let me get one

[fenderbaum2]

You'll get around to it someday. If you find one, the advantage will be they're relatively cheap.

[FourSixTireFrier]

fine automobile my dream car

[generalle2]

its a plymouth fury not monaco

[fenderbaum2]

No, it's a Dodge Monaco (it's my car, I should know... ;-) )

Although it is quite confusing: the 77-78 Dodge Monaco & Plymouth Fury were almost identical, exept for grille, taillights & badges.

For 75-78, the fullsize Plymouth Fury was renamed Gran Fury. And the midsize Satellite became the Fury.

Dodge did the same 2 years later. 75-76 Dodge Coronet was nearly identical to 75-76 Fury.

For 1977 & 78, the fullsize Monaco was renamed Royal Monaco, and the Coronet was rebadged Monaco.

Needs a bigger garage!

Your not going to wreck this beauty, i mean its your car but I have a such hard time finding these.

[fenderbaum2]

Wreck it?? Why would I wanna do that? I'm fixing it up :)

[quiksilvermanblue]

Well I have seen people wrecking them, it breaks my heart. But your looks great keep up the good work

[corolere]

Cool, I've got the same car but mine is blue, only 28K miles on it

[SMC1706]
