@MrJohnnyDistortion Just to let you know that dodge did a good job of screwing with people when they went to fill with gas. the fill is between the tail lights. you rock the backup lights down to fill up the car.

Sweet ride. keep it and enjoy. I own a 74 with a 400. It was my dads last new car and went to the dealer with him to buy it. Love the big old mopar. Mine is dark blue with a white top and all the toys inside.
A nice beautiful beast of a car, I own one of it's cousins, a 1975 Chrysler Newport, unfortunately it's white with a burgundy interior, I wish it was green like yours. Your car isn't 100% original though, it has aftermarket speakers above the dash and through the parcel shelf, my car still has the original MoPar AM/FM stereo eight track made by Panasonic, a good performer actually. It's nice that someone added mud flaps to your car, that very likely saved the bottoms of the fenders from rusting.
I stand corrected, the under the hood shot was very brief. After looking at the video several times it is a 383 or a 440. Excuse my ignorance. The dodge Monaco I had 20 years ago, was a police package with dual inlets on the air cleaner.
Yes...that definitely is a 440... Look under air filter housing, there's the coil.... Look a little bit more to the left... That's not a mini medusa head...That's the distributor...
Very sweet car you have there... I have a 1969 dodge Challenger R/T with a 440 sporting a six pack... Not quite as rare as your car though...Your car is in beautiful condition... Please keep it that way :)
@scott93257 Actually I think a Challenger R/T with six pack would be rarer, most Mopars with multiple carbs got dual quads, most of the Challengers also came with 383s, maybe 400s in the later versions. However you could get some of those E and B bodied pony cars with a slant 6 or a 318 but most didn't.
Yes Charger is what I meant... As I was typing that, a new Challenger went by the window....and I typed Challenger rather than Charger...69 Charger..it is a beautiful car... My dad and I built the motor and restored her from the ground up....Unfortunately dad didn't make it to finish the rest of it with me...just interior was needed... which I finished... mom and dad died in a car accident that summer..But their spirit lives on in that car and I feel the everyday
@scott93257 That's fine. A lot of poeple get those names mixed up at times anyways. Yeah those new Challengers are nice. I have the first model year Charger (1966) and a 440c.i. waiting for it. A future project between my dad and I. Terribly sorry to hear about your folks.
That is not a 440 engine! That is a 360 or a 318. The 440's distributer cap is on the front of the engine not in the rear. Good luck buying parts.....
@joemiller1954 when was the last time you looked at a mopar engine? small block has the distributer at the rear and big block is at the front. follow the plug wires, the go to the front. IT IS A 440
@joemiller1954 that's a 440 or 400 doesn't matter it's as big block mopar for sure. the big blocks distributor are all on the front the small blocks are on the back!! I know I owned 78 dodge motorhome with a 440 and now have a 76 with a 360
@joemiller1954 WRONG!It is a 440.Look again slightly visible behind the upper radiator hose is the angled distributor cap in grat color.Follow the ignition wires Joe.Parts are everywhere.Good luck with your eyesight!
The music is all wrong that is playing in this video. Watch the 77 Dodge Royal Monaco Comparison video here I posted on youtube. The music in the film is more representative of the type of person that would own a Monaco. Rockin Roll would be totally foreign to a Monaco owner. Lawerence Welk or Mitch Miller would be totally in music for a Royal Monaco owner
Well, I think the music he used was ok. But I say the best music for that car would be some BLUES BROTHERS!!! (After all, it's basically the same car as the Bluesmobile) A little Rubber Biscuit perhaps? :)
Not Exactly correct here. There were two Models in 1974, the Monaco and the Royal Monaco. Both had exposed headlamps. In 1975, the Monaco retained a slightly modified 74 grill with exposed headlamps, but the new 75 Royal Monaco which cost more, had hidden headlamps. In the 76 and 77, both Monaco and Royal Monaco had the same front styled hidden head lamps.
loved the vidio!!! i had a74 monaco that was bought new by the poland, .oh .police chief the dodge was a mon. brohm. as well as yours,but, it had the e-85 police package.440,special cam,electrical, ect. back then, dodge would put a e-85 code to any of the mid to large boides, unlke ford, who won,t sell the p-71 code interceptors to the public!! i had the same int. as you but it was black. mine also had the rounded rear window. the car was fast!! but it saved my life!. i got hit by a dump truck!
That is a 1975 Royal Monaco Brougham. The year is 1975 for a Fact. Only 1975 had the Rounded Back window. And also, the Hide-a-way headlights were Not available for 1974
Sweet. It's a four door hard top. I like that design with no stupid pillar in the way when you look to the sides. With gasoline down to $1.66 USD per gallon here I could afford to drive a nice big car like this one.
thats sick but im betting your goverment taxes the hell out of it and your nieghbor russia could give you back the land it stole from you or make some oil concessions.
HI, i have a doubt.... I own a 1974 and a 1975 monaco. but in this car I see the taillights from a 1974 but all the front is from a 1975-1977 Royal Monaco. At least in Mexico we didnt see any Royal monaco ( hidden beams ) until 1975. What do you think? thanks and regards, NICE CAR of course!!
Thanks, hmmm maybe it is cut in middle years -74 and -75. . just when year change 17.12. , or someone have change front mask then. . but nevertheless i dont have any more this car , i have now Plymouth Fury III year 1965.

The base 1975 Monaco had regular (exposed) headlights like the '74. The only difference was the eggcrate grille on the '75.
The 1975 Royal Monaco (more luxury options) had the hidden headlights. Both models are hard to find, nowadays.
