Didn't find an FCBO post for it but I found this - 1971 DODGE MONACO MOPAR 383 CHRYSLER SURVIVOR POLARA
solid chance this is DH43N1D174245
I don't think so: DH43N1D174245 has the L31 fender signal repeaters and different wheel covers. The latter could have been swapped (though that is unlikely), but the former is an almost guarantee that it is not the same car.

I wonder if the Iowa Monaco is GF3 or GY4. I was initially thinking GF3, but am starting to think GY4. If so...

Maybe it is wishful thinking but comparing the appearance in my garage of my 71 GJ4 300 with varying light angles, this car definitely mimics the appearance of my car in color (mine isn't buffed in this photo but is original paint). I agree, GY4.

Lots of miles on that one apparently. I am surprised it looks as good as it does.

Thought we’d seen this one before with a set of mag wheels a couple of years ago. That one seemed to have a similar dent in the quarter panel.

He hasn't sold the car since May and so his new strategy is to double the price so it will be even more likely to sell??? :realcrazy::realcrazy::realcrazy:

This GF3 or GY4 Monaco 4dr hardtop has now sold. The last asking price on FB was $2k. If anyone got the fender tag, it'd be great to see it.

For records, here is an extra photo of the interior:

What a ride this car has been on and the discrepancies between each of the listings is surprising. The various mileage readings range from 194K, 180K to 19K - all over the map. Are folks this clueless about how to read a simple odometer???

I do not see evidence that a cassette player was ever mounted on the transmission hump, where they were located in 1971 either.

A fender tag photo and one of the odometer would really help!

The latest listing also says $3K while the other part says trade only???????????

Damn!
