Looks like a nice cruiser
So you bought DP43M2F210916 -- well done!
I own a 1971 Monaco 2dr that was originally GY9 -- see this thread. I would love to read about your repair work!

plenty of repairs! The rust is not thorough - but boy - all four tires were shot- radiator clutch fan falling off, all fuel and tank vent lines were shot. Heater core was shut off. Carb has flat spot. Plugs wires cap rotor air filter trans mount battery & battery cable fuel filter rear brake hoses water pump belt ps belt u joint gear oil alternator belt....thing was a death trap. Owner stated that he would be comfortable driving it anywhere - but here is the tire that he said passed inspection:

Interesting.
Those are not the tires that were on it in the FS listing from ~6 mos ago. NOT MINE - 1972 Dodge Monaco 4dr Hardtop - $7,500 - Willow Spring, North Carolina

Ah, the Galaxy tires are new. I got confused in the order of the pics, I guess.
How are the Galaxy tires? I found the manufacturer site years ago, but haven't found again. Claim to have high speed sticky 15" tires and white walls.
I really like the front end on these.........

Absolutely most awesome machine. Only made in 72/73. Even then some parts weren't interchangeable. Rear tail lights & stuff. I have sooooo many parts for this model & a pretty stripped out parts car. I would love to have a working model but I have 11 cars & I'm 64 so time is running out.

I love it. My 73 is coming along. It would be a lot further if we didn't have 3 foot of snow.

Can you post some pics? Always interested in project car progression.

Might surprise you to know that prices are rising on Fusey cars, and 4-dr models with good options, good colors, etc, have developed a following willing to pay some money for them.

WELLLLLLLL.... BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR!
This list doesnt even include the 4 new tires/install. Doesnt include the faulty fuel pump on the carb, pr the exhaust leak. the discount I negotiated has been more than twice gobbled up by
the actual - rather than stated - condition of the car. Labor of Love indeed... Caveat Emptor!
