If someone buys my Monaco I can float you a very low interest loan.

My Dad's next door neighbor had this same exact car years ago. Always thought the Fifth Ave was an attractive ride.

big problem is if the original carb and lean burn is still there, that stuff is really junk. I used to own one.

 

[polara66hardtop]

They also have really weak upper A frames, the cars can't hold an alignment worth a hoot. Countless diplomat police cars were parked because of the really trashy upper frames. I would pass on any of them.
my brother used to drive one as a police car, and he resisted shooting it every night! HAHA

I also knew of a Deputy that would get 125 mph with a tall AeroDynic lightbar on its roof. If everything was just right they flew.

Likely it had he the 360 HP. and was a was a much better drivetrain. I will give it that.

Sorry, disagree with all the negativity above. I used to specialize in "flipping" these cars. For a long time they took the place of the ubiquitous "at least one A-body in every large parking lot 20 years after being sold" I must have owned at least 7-8 of them and kept an '89 for myself...and I still see them in use, albeit not everyday as was the case 10 years ago.

1) They are not "lean burns", which try to run lean enough to get around catalysts. They are feedback carbs, which while imperfect, are not that bad or impossible to fix.

2) The A-arm issue can happen if you decide to take a curb while in hot pursuit of your suspect, and even that is mostly trivia from the pages of Allpar; based on changes to the frame (extra welds) after reports came in from police service.

3) There were no 360s used in passenger cars after 1980, only 318 (quadrajet) 4bbls for police.

I bought the one below in 2014 and used it as a daily for a year.

I always felt that these were one of the nicest riding cars of the era.

Since there is no God it is up to me to see it through

These were beautiful and sweet cars! I owned an '84 for a number of years; served us well.
