Okay , but sold new in the US.....?
MY Unicorn X RARE 69 Monaco 500 Convertible
- Thread starter Kevin Carpenter
- Start date
He bought it in NY years ago but I guess its possible it could have came down from Canada. It was originally built in the states though and not the Windsor plant.
PM27K9D316673 has an SBD of July 3, 1969. Must be the last known date for a 1969 ´vert (The last SBD for the 1970 ´verts is still July 1 1970).

The 908405 VON tells us it was built for sale in the US. A car destined for Canada would have a VON that starts with B. Combining the VON with Y16 leads me to a wild *** guess the car was ordered internally and built for some promotional purpose such as a parade, a high visibility appearance such as a Chrysler sponsored golf tournament, a give away car of some sort or other designated marketing purpose.

@69monaco -- know more that you can share about DP27G9R194132 ? Canadian-built, and seemingly well preserved! @71Polara383

So glad I have a small limit. I'd have 4 69s by now.

July 1, 1970 is still the last one of which I know for 1970 MY. For 1969, those are just my records -- I don't keep track of the 1969s like I do the 1970s, though.
--> Would love to get the tag of the car you're thinking of

I have a tag with SPD 707 for Jefferson, 1970 model year.
I will have to sort it out tonight.

Thank you, I don't have that car in the records. Could you please add it to the Last of the Convertibles thread, as that actually changes the last known? @67valiant 100

So from what I know and have been told there were only 2 69 Monaco 500 Convertibles made with a 440. does that mean 1 was the K-Code R6 car and the other mine the L-Code B5 Blue car???

Lots of wrong or misleading info out there. What is the documentation supporting those production figures?

My latest NOS score for my Monaco... NOS L& R front wheel opening molding. Drivers side has a small tweak in it but can be repaired.

While it has been confirmed more than once that there were 2 440 69 Monaco 500 Convertibles made with a 440 but nowhere does it say with what 440. Now with your R6 Red 440 Monaco 500 Convertible showing up but its a K code. could that be the 2nd 440 car and mean mine is the only L code??
SO what I have been told is that we both own the 2 69 Monaco 500 Convertibles. yours is a K-code and mine is an L-Code.
