Lou is better than Charles Phoenix!Well....I saw this video come up on the web earlier, but as much as I was interested in the car, I just could not watch another Lou C video. It is nice that Lou enjoys old cars, and hopefully someday he'll learn something about them.
Yes that is my Grace..before I bought her.Is that your actual Monaco, Barge? I'm confused.
Pm sent to kerp thread on topic..Super cool indeed! Question...where can I get the little spring clips/tabs that hold the window switches in the door cards?

My dad had the 67 Dodge Monaco version...9 passenger, fully loaded with the 350 HP 440. What a car that was. I have 4 older sisters and the 3 oldest drove the car. My dad loved that car....but...hated the gas mileage. It was actually a Chrysler executive car...used by George Love, the President of Chrysler board of directors in 1967. My dad got it from the Chrysler district rep in Pittsburgh. I have a theory why the President of Chrysler didnt have the more upscale version of a Town and Country. The Monaco was built at Belvidere Illinois plant which was only 2 years old in 1967. The Chrysler plant in Detroit was much older and quality may have been lesser. I believe that the Execs at Chrysler wanted Mr. Love to have a car built at their newest and most modern plant...hence him having a Dodge rather than an Chrysler.
