**BE SURE TO WATCH MY VIDEO ABOVE FOR AN EXTENSIVE LOOK**
First time I have ever listing this car and I will only list it 1 time.
7 day auction. NO RESERVE.
I am a VERY honest seller with VERY specific attention to detail in my descriptions and videos. Please take the time to read everything and watch the video.
So without further delay:
1978 DODGE MONACOROSCO P. COLTRANEREPLICA!
FACTORY 318 AUTO WITH POWER STEERING AND POWER DISC BRAKES.A/C CAR BUT NOT WORKING CURRENTLY. IT MIGHT WITH LITTLE EFFORT WHO KNOWS.
CAR SHOWS 50,000 ORIGINAL MILES. I WAS TOLD IT WAS ORIGINAL BUT WHO KNOWS. TITLE SHOWS EXEMPT SO IT'S LIKELY 150,000.
CAR STARTS, RUNS,DRIVESANDHANDLES GREAT!
QUIET RUNNING MOTOR. NEW EXHAUST SYSTEM A COUPLE YEARS AGO.
THE CAR RARELY GETS DRIVEN ANYMORE. SPENDS MOST OF ITS TIME SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY BUT I TRY TO START IT AND DRIVE IT AT LEAST 2 OR 3 TIMES A WEEK.
FOLKS, IT'S FAR FROM PERFECT SO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ ALL OF MY SPECIFICS IN THE DESCRIPTION. I WILL ANSWER ANYTHING, ANYTIME FOR ANYONE. NOTHING TO HIDE HERE.
CLEAR, CLEAN INDIANA TITLE IN HAND.
BODY:
FIRST OFF THIS IS BASICALLY A VERY COOL "BEATER".
YOU WILL NOT PLACE TOP 5 AT PEBBLE BEACH CONCOURS D'ELEGANCE... IN FACT, IF YOU ROLLED UP AT PEBBLE BEACH IN THIS MONACO I WOULD ASSUME THE AUTHORITIES WOULD BE NOTIFIED RATHER QUICKLY LOL.
BUT...THEY ARE VERY HARD TO COME BY ANYMORE AND IT ALWAYS GETS ATTENTION WHEN ITS PARKED BEHIND MY GENERAL LEE.
FLOORS ARE 100% ROCK SOLID! SUBFRAME AND TORSION BOXES ARE ROCK SOLID! TRUNK FLOOR IN A SPOT TO THE LEFT HAS HAD A FLAT PIECE OF STEEL WELDED IN AT SOME POINT. PRETTY BIG SPOT. ASSIDE FROM THAT THE TRUNK FLOOR SEEMS ROCK SOLID.
THE BODY HAS BONDO IN THE LOWER QUARTER PANELS, LOWER (REAR) ROCKERS/THRESHOLDS AND A VARIETY OF SPOTS ON THE ROOF WHERE A PREVIOUS VINYL TOP WAS AND CAUSED SOME RUST ISSUES.
THE BODYWORK WAS PRIMITIVE, CRUDE AND AMMATURE.
OTHER THAN THAT IT SEEMS PRETTY STRAIGHT AND STRUCTURALLY VERY SOUND ON THE TRUNK LID, DOG HOUSE AND DOORS.
THE PAINT JOB IS CRAP. IT WAS A QUICKY SPRAY JOB AND IT SHOWS. THERE ARE WATER SPOTS AND DULL SPOTS. HARDLY NOTICED WHEN THE CAR IS DIRTY...SO IT STAYS DIRTY... A LOT. BUT AGAIN, STILL LOOKS SO COOL.
WHEN I BOUGHT IT I KNEW WHAT I WAS BUYING BECAUSE THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS VERY BLUNT, HONEST AND UNBIASED ABOUT THE CONDITION OF THE CAR. IT IS WHAT IT IS, FOR BETTER OR WORSE.
I HAVE ENJOYED IT A LOT AND I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.INTERIOR:
ACTUALLY INPRETTY DECENT, ORIGINAL CONDITION. A LITTLE DUSTY/DIRTY.CORRECT SADDLE TAN COLOR. WIPERS WORK AND ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTING WORKS.
OLD COBRA CB.
HAS AN OLD, PERIOD CORRECT SPOT LIGHT IN IT AND IT DOES WORK WHEN HOOKED UP. LOCAL LAWS PROHIBIT ME FROM HAVING IT WORKING.
HAS LIGHT BAR JUST SITTING ON THE TOP FOR LOOKS. IT FITS IN THE BACK SEAT UNTIL YOU GET TO A CAR SHOW. AGAIN, LOCAL LAWS...
I HAVE PERSONALLY MET SONNY SHROYER (ENOS) AND HAVE MANY PICS OF HIM WITH ME SIGNING THE GLOVE BOX OF THIS CAR.
ENGINE/TRANS:
FACTORY 318 2BBL., AUTO TRANS. 8.25 REAR END. NOTHING FANCY. ALWAYS, AND I MEAN ALWAYS STARTS RIGHT UP AND DRIVES GREAT!
WHEELS/TIRES:
STOCK 15" STEEL WHEELS, GOOD TIRES AND POLICE HUB CAPS.
