A clean, rather striking bronze car with beige roof, 383 2BBL with manual transmission, seems like a rather special interior with matching headliner, looks like mold on steering wheel and no radio.
Car is in Poland, listed for 49 900 PLN, equivalent to roughly 11 000 USD: Dodge Monaco 1970 - 49900 PLN - Krzeszowice - Giełda klasyków

From ad with google translate:

In those days, American sedans were so huge that no one needed SUVs and minivans. The average American family then had two and a half children and a dog, and they could all fit into a car like the Dodge Monaco in 1970. Well, there was still room for the mother-in-law, who only had to drive unfastened with seat belts ... which, of course, was not the slightest problem. Under the hood, we can find the only option in this year - a 300hp V8 with a capacity of 383 cubic inches, enough to go full side if necessary, like in a thoroughbred muscle car.

The above-mentioned car has a documentary value for the history of automotive technology and the history of the automotive industry due to some construction solutions as well as the design of the body and interior of the car.

Thanks for posting. Perhaps members from Poland can provide more info on this Monaco, including the fender tag and the car's history?

I haven't seen this particular car in person but I do know the seller. Few years ago I bought another car from him - honest guy, I'd recommend him. Another person I know bought a '69 2dr Monaco from him and the car is still on the road. I believe it has been restored so if the work was bad it would probably show now.
If someone is interested I can get in touch with the seller and ask him anything you need.
 
That is a beautiful color.
Does anyone know what paint code that is? Or what interior code that is?

Is the color even a factory color?
 
WOW! This is the first fusie era manual transmission car Ive seen with power brakes! (if its original)
 
Just with power brakes or general a manual transmission fuselage ?
 
With power brakes. I've seen 10-14 other manual trans '69-'71 C-bodies but all of them have been low option manual brake cars. The Chrysler parts books do show a power brake pedal for manual trans applications.
 
Thanks to @Lycidias for alerting us to the fact that this beautiful bronze / burnt orange (?) Monaco sedan is for sale again in Poland. The price, listed as 25k euros on eBay in Germany, is up substantially, it seems. Strangely, the photos are the exact same as in the 2022 ad. Adding for records a few more that @ThisAwesomeCOLA did not post two years ago.

Would be great if @SPS @fc7_plumcrazy @ceebuddy @Georg/BBTR and others in Germany could fill in the story of this car, which the eBay listing says was first registered in Poland back in 1974 (back when the Iron Curtain was still up, really?!)

It sure is a very attractive car.
I am wondering what the import tags are on this car.
Would there still be a trim tag?
