I like that Monaco.

I like that Monaco.

Me, too. But mea culpa. It's a B body, of course after '76, right?

That doesn't bother me at all. I thought I might get my friend's 75 Roadrunner, but he decided to keep it, for now, hehehe. I even got a spare grille for it, for whoever might need it. I miss driving around in my friends white Cordova, it was a comfy car for us high schoolers to get, um, around in, yeah, that's it! Even then my friends didn't like it, and I totally did. I even asked if it was for sale, and I didn't have a license!

I am wondering about that. But, while these looked like a Cordoba, which was a B, they were much larger. Does someone know for sure?

Sure looks like the 75 Roadrunner, the trunk especially.

I like both of the Newports.

The Monaco started at 4500, then 4250 and now 3800. Not far from me. I thought about it but don't need 3 cars right now.

Actually, they're not. They come in at 213.2 inches. Cordoba at 215.3.

Really? When I had my Cordoba and was looking for parts at junk yards, these Plymouths always seemed wider and larger. Interesting.

To be honest, I didn't whip out a tape measure. But those stats are coming from Automobile-Catalog.com. but I think it may because both the Dodge and Plymouth B coupes come in at 213.2 (corroborated at second source) where the sedans add 4.8 inches!

I've been seeing that Monaco on CL for awhile now, like SportFury says, the price keeps dropping. It seems worth the money as a whole, but those cars don't have much popularity. Good car to get into the car hobby with, though. I love the 4dr versions of those, can't stand the 2drs. 4dr is sleek and cokebottled, the 2dr seems like it was an afterthought design that was cobbled together.
