I think it went to a good home! I found it kinda cool that it was built here in Belvidere, went to work in New Mexico, laid to rest in Missouri, and ended up minutes away from where it was built for its revival and return to the road. Now it's back to work down South!

Dang pic didn't attach.
What did you do with the lightbar, did it go with the car?

Ah, thought that was your picture.

Why this has the 4-slot steelies?

If you're implying why doesn't it have the 15 x 7" dimension 6 slot wheels, those weren't introduced until the 1978 model year I believe.
It`s clear now. Thanks!

I'm "only" thirty eight, geez, you never know when your time is up though. I probably should draft one up though. Top of the list would be lack of embalment and fire, none for me thanks.

Manny came down today and helped me swap in a very nice Dashboard that came with the GT. The wiring harness was the biggest hassle, trying to sort out light package wiring, rear defrost, cruise control ETC. We got it pretty much sorted out.
Also got the new trans lines fished in... if we weren't 2 hours away from each other both of our cars would be ALOT further along. Regardless, the Monacucamonga is a few steps closer to being a driver.

Very pleased the Monaco went to a very good home. I knew I wouldn't be able to get to it given how many cars I have lined up ahead of it, and also in that list is another 1971 Monaco coupe that is green instead of blue and which is close to the top of the list. Glad you guys are able to get together to help each other out. I have nothing but the deepest respect for both of you. Wish you both lived next door to me - then we all would be rockin!

I wish it was further along but I have a car buying problem... on the plus side the cowl looks excellent with only the passenger lower corner of the windshield channel need a little work. Overall very happy with the car.
I have had zero luck on door panels so when the time comes for you to start the resto, you know where to send the green ones.
This car had only a dashboard in it when you got it Steve?

I am having withdrawal of a lack of Q5 in my life...this Monaco is going to be the big bad sister of my base model Polara I let go about a month ago...so that is my plan. The fender tag is gone.

I understand your pain BUT you know it is blue. Anytime you will look at it you will know it is blue and not FQ5.

Don't you have an FQ5 in the making? @71Polara383

I'm saying...I plan to repaint the car FQ5 down the line. If its fender tag was present I would consider keeping the B5. Buts it not, so I'm not.
