1968 Dodge Monaco

Found this on You Tube, optional 440, A/C, disc brakes, and a great color combo. $ 6,800.00 was a steal.

There seems to be a huge disconnect between the sold price and that car. Does anyone know anything more about this car?

There was a Palm Springs Collector Car Auction (McCormick's Palm Springs Collector Car Auctions) on Nov 22-24. This Monaco is not on the list.

Classic Car Auctions

"Today's featured car of the day is a 1967 Dodge Monaco 500 coupe. 1 of 286 made with a special order 440 V8. I filmed this beauty at my local Classic Car Auction in Palm Springs, California where it sold for only $6,800!"

The video was posted Nov 29. I don't see any other recent auctions in Palm Springs.

Anyone got any ideas about this?

(there was a '66 or '67 Monaco/Polara wagon visible in the video, also not in that auction list)

At first, i thought it was Leaburn's car . @cbarge would be ecstatic about it.

I like these cars. I obtained one from a buddy that was a rusted out mess and also caught on fire. I parted it for the drivetrain and sold off everything else worthy. Then scrapped the shell.

His production gumbers are for the U.S. cars and not including the Canadian cars.

Love this, my father had a 67 and then I had a 68 Monaco 500 with the factory 440 and a 4-speed.

No 440 badging on the car. I am assuming it may be the 350hp K code?
L code 440 375 Magnum will have fender badges...

Is this the same car?

1967 Monaco 500 with what engine?

In November I purchased a 1967 Dodge Marco 500 at the Palm Springs auction. This car has appeared on this forum in the past. It is the one that came out of the Vanderblink auction in SD in July 2020. I am trying to figure out what engine is in my car. This is my first 60s MoPar. As a result, I...

Really?? Have any pics of your 68? I have one and have seen about 3 others on line, and the only #s I've seen is 7 made.

I believe the 67s did not have 440 badges. I also believe, there were no k code 440s in the monacos. 375hp only

67 440 Magnum powered Canadian full sized Dodge DID get fender badges.
From the Canadian Sales Brochure a Polara 4dr hardtop with 440 Magnum badges.
And my car with the same badges.
In the old thread that is linked to the said car, it is an L code where I assume the badges were removed or febders replaced? and 68 sidemarkers were installed.

I read into it and you are correct. All models Except wagons, lol
From my 67 Brochure.
