I loved those little 20 foot long economy cars too!
I agree, the '74 models were the best looking of this range. I don't know why they changed it, messing about with hidden lights etc. change for the sake of it I think.
The only changes to the 1975 Monaco was the Grille. The other stuff is the same. I have a 75 A38 Monaco ex-Nevada H. P car. it has the 440 and such, and it is fast. lol I take it to car shows, and place a donut and coffee on the dash. It won 2nd place in a car show. (GRIN)

Be careful with the 440 guys. My Uncle drove a 440 squad back in the day and he always told me that they had a fatal flaw. If you go from high speed to panic stop and then punch the throttle again you threw a rod every time. There was just so much rotating mass that something had to give. He blew out 2 motors in his squad car before the dept. issued a policy that you had to pause for a couple of seconds before hitting the throttle again in pursuit situations. Powerful motor, but for those who want to display that power on the street... it gets very expensive real quick if not careful.
