1977 Dodge Monaco review from North America
"It's a great ride with a comfortable seats and a powerful engine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I ran out of gas this one time I killed my starter and had to purchase a new one because I attempted to start the car with no gas a million times and I eventually broke it.
One tiny problem I found is that you have to heat the car up after a cold night for about two minutes, but maybe it's like this with ALL old cars? This is my first older car and I wasn't aware you have to heat cars like this or they turn off. But after that first heat up no problems.
General comments?
The comfortable seats are the reason I bought this car, I love all the space.
It's such a smooth ride, it's the best. It picks up great as well, and the flow-masters I installed add a lot to the car.
The trunk is huge, so if this car is for a music fan you have lots of space to put in large sub-woofers and amps.
It's got a beautiful body, real nice hood and large interior, it's a great buy.
