Well lets just say they are surely not a dime a dozen !!!!! :3gears: and you won't see too many side by side at any local car shows, unlike Chargers, Super Bee's & Cuda's

I don't know if it's rare but I know that it's cool.

Convert with the the Super-Lite .. that's gotta be some low production numbers there and cool as hell. What are you plans for it?

Did this come out of the London area?

 

[hemiguy]

no it was on kijji before or London and he reposted it.it was actually in courtright

Numbers are low for a 69 Monaco convertible, I believe under 400. Wheres the moldings...........? A Superlite in that beast is probably numbered below 50.thats only a guess.

Here's what the Canadian Monaco 500 trim looked like (Polara 500 in the USA)...and a pic of the Super-Lite. I imagine the pieces that say "Monaco 500" are pretty rare compared to the American versions.

You've got to have the trim in my opinion...so cool.

I'd say that is a very nice score indeed.

I think I can look up the number of cars built for Canada and also the number with a Superlite. The fender portions of the side mouldings are the critical pieces. Everything else you can scarf from a Polara 500. Going to check to see if I can scrounge you the fender bits.

I didn't read your initial question closely enough. I could have saved myself an hour's work. The correct answer is: Not as rare as it is in the U.S.

Your time researching is never wasted but always appreciated
