Correct. I had mine for 16 years. Counting the one I owned, this is only the third one I’ve ever seen/heard about.

When I had my ‘65 Monaco I had a rear hum for years. It would go away when I made a turn or curve in one direction. Finally looked into it and it was a bad right rear axle bearing. Funny thing is after I had it replaced the car had way more jump off the line because it wasn’t hanging up anymore!

His last post on here was 11/10/2021 and he passed away two days later.

Hi All, I posted a while back asking if anyone knew of Dan Raetz(rapidtrans) who I had sold my ‘65 Monaco to back in 2016. When I posted I happened to spell his last name wrong and that’s why I couldn’t find any info. Going back through old emails I found our communication concerning said car...

Sold it a couple of years ago to a gentleman in Pennsylvania. I see him at Carlisle, he doesn’t live very far from there. As of Carlisle ‘24 he hasn’t done anything with it. It’s sitting in his building. He’s not sure if he wants to just get it roadworthy or go all out.

It could be a Monaco Brougham. They were based off of the B bodies.

I believe this is a slot car body. I had two 1965 Dodge Monaco’s at one time but both are in my rear view mirror. I do not know how old this is, I purchased it in 2009 and since I don’t have the cars it’s time to move it along. I have no clue what I paid for it or what it’s worth for that...

A Crown Roof example!

Yes it does.

Thanks. Yeah, November of ‘21 was last activity here and April of ‘21 on Allpar. Saw him at Carlisle of ‘21 which was last time we spoke. Not getting a good vibe from this. Not to sound negative but I did try to do an obituary search but didn’t get far. If you find anything out, good or bad...

Same! He lives in Michigan, I believe Oakland County??? He owns my old ‘65 Monaco in Pale Gold Poly if any of this rings a bell.

Does anyone know “rapidtrans”? I saw he last posted here in November of ‘21. The last time I saw and spoke with him was at Carlisle of ‘21. I had texted him several times with no response. I tried calling his cell a few days ago and it is not in service. Wanted to see if he was going to Carlisle...

I am selling this pair of dealer showroom Data and Color/Trim catalogues for the 1965 Dodge lineup. They are in very good condition with no missing pieces. The dealer at the time made hand written notes in pencil about the color availability on certain models. Will not separate, sold as a pair...

Either way, the car DID NOT sell through Ebay. I pulled it after two runs through.
