Ahhh . . . the memories.
Learned to drive on a 71 Monaco 4-door HT. Same color combo as this one (or, maybe, GK6 dark bronze). Can't recall clearly, just remember that these colors really did "shift" depending on the way the light hit them. Ours had a black interior. An absolutely beautiful car.
I really loved the concave back glass on the 4-door hardtops . . . I thought it lent a really classy and elegant look to the design. Looked real good on the Fury hardtops, as well.
As good as these cars looked, I have to admit it was probably the most mechanically troublesome car we ever owned. Chronic overheating which nobody ever solved, windows fell out of their tracks, shift linkage fell apart, windshield wiper linkage fell apart. Remember driving through Morgantown WV one summer afternoon, in a blinding thunderstorm, w/ my buddy Jim hanging out the pass window, flipping the wipers back-and-forth.
