Big_John, thanks for your input. I crawled back under the dash (which is painful at my age) and squeezed the two large connectors by the column. I felt a slight movement in one of them and when I had my wife check the tail lights, both brake lights were now working. I guess I caused the problem...

I had to repair the both the upper and lower couplers. Got a kit for the lower one but I needed to replace the rag joint in the upper coupler. The NOS parts out there were very expensive so I made my own using a hockey puck with metal sleeves for the allan bolts to counter sink into. Works OK...

The right brake light does not work yet the right signal works, driving lights work, and the four way will light both brake lights. It should be noted that I recently repaired the steering coupler assembly so I did have the steering column pulled back while I rebuilt the coupler. Any suggestions...

Has anyone ever repaired one of these units without totally removing the steering column. I am having an issue with the one in my 1970 Dodge Monaco with floor shift automatic.

I've done all I'm going to do to this washer bottle. I coated the weak parts and cracks with 2 part epoxy. Then when that cured, I added another coat with some fiberglass on the bad spots and let it cure. After reading that the epoxy and plastic expansion properties are different, I sprayed the...

Michel, I already have the bottle out and it strong enough to handle. I tried some two part epoxy on a rough corner and the crack I put on the top and it helped a lot. But after seeing the guy who used fiberglass as well as the epoxy, it twigged my memory that I have some fiberglass somewhere in...

Dave, you're right, I really don't use it. What I want to do is keep it in one piece so I can put it back in the car. I'm thinking of selling my car so the new owner can worry about it. I going to try and coat it with clear epoxy to see if that works. Just want to see if anyone else tried to...

Recently while I was checking the oil in my car I put my hand on the top of the washer bottle with a little too much weight and I heard a crack. When I took the bottle out I noticed a ton of plastic deterioration cracks beginning on the top and down the sides. There was also a crack on the...

I had the same running hot at speed problem several years ago on my 70 Monaco 440 with A/C after I had replaced a leaky water pump with an 8 blade pump. Had to keep the car around 70 or it would get too warm. Then I read that a 440 with A/C should have a 6 blade impeller and non A/C 440 should...

The term 'Nice pair!' is mostly said in reference to a beautiful woman's assets but it definitely works here also!

Wheel options are almost endless. I liked these wheels because they matched the brushed aluminum trim on the Monaco.

I'm registered for Moparfest but still not sure if I will make it. Will try hard to at least make it on Sunday! Frank

Michel, the more I see of Medina (thanks to 71Polara383's photography), the more I believe you got a pretty good deal when you bought her! Enjoy her... she's a beauty!

Looks like a repaint.

This car (not mine) was posted for sale on the Yahoo Polara/Monaco site. A nice looking 4 door car but some may find the asking price just a tad bit high (tongue in cheek here). Hi, I have for sale my car Dodge Monaco 1970, it is in perfect condition, is totally original, is a machine 318 with...

Congratulations Michel! Really nice car. And I suspect it will only get better over time. Frank

Here is a photo of a Canadian 1970 Monaco seen at Moparfest in 2003. This verifies Bill Watson's description of the Canadian Monaco. It was owned by an American by the name of Chris Nau at the time.

Another one of Mother Mopar's strange quirks! And there were a few from what I gather.

Yes it is.... EB3 paint code.

I understand. You're not the first to express that thought. But I like the look. My car, my choice. As it should be for all.
