What are your reasons? What are the perceived reasons others like them?

 

[polara71]

Most like the nose on the 72/72 Monacos. I REALLY am not fond of the nose and the hideaways.

I love them, that nose is cool, my neighbor had a black one, .

Nice car but the 4x4 Slick in the background is even more interesting

 

[Pete Kaczmarski]

To each their own, I love this style but the rust repairs may lead to a complete repaint when the paint does not match. So for that reason $4000 max for this car.

I think that is just a shadow from a tree?

I will admit the nose is polarizing...

Nice! Yeah, the "Slick" is nice too. A classic in every driveway. LOL

Actually its Monacizing

The front end makes it a very attractive car.....wish for a bigger motor though......(ducking under desk).

They didnt come with a 4 barrel ... I am certain the Monaco got the 4 barrel on the 400 and 440 in 1972

:yes_no:

Actually, the only 400 engine option on the Polara or Monaco was the 2 bbl - you had to go to the 440 to get the 4 bbl. There really isn't much difference in performance between the 360 and 400 engines, they just feel different to drive mostly because the 360 gets the higher stall torque converter and the 400 the lower stall converter. As for the front end, I REALLY like the Monaco front - I think the guy that designed it was a genius. Slam dunk for me.

 

[polara71]

Always avoided the 72s....thanks for the clarification......

I need to be clear....if i were to locate a 72 polara police car, there is no chance of that car having a 400 with a 4 barrel?

If he kept it up like his lawn, its probably been taking care of.

That picture makes it feel like I'm looking back through time to 1972. The quaint little house, separated concrete driveway, nice little garage out back, and the ~ 59 Ford 4 x4 truck next door etc

I like the front end treatment but I'd pull those bumperttes off

 

[70NPORT]

the front end is somewhat reminiscent of the 66' Toro.
