One of my first cars was the Coronet version of this body. Of course, mine was so rusted out that the rear of the thing was held up by a stack of 2x6's between the tops of the quarters and the leaf springs......haha. That car was embarrassing...

Yours is not, though. That thing rocks.

Sean, I just gave Mark Harmon a 1975 Version of this body to convert into a Funny Car body. Man, this build makes me think twice about THAT decision!

Luckily, I have a 77 2dr body I could use! Thanks for the inspiration.

I had this idea for a while and really wanted the '75 Plymouth version, but they are pricey. The Dodges are easier to come by. I recently scored another '77 2 door Dodge in a trade that is gonna get a different treatment.

I got two of the Monoco 2drs, one a 75 and the other a 77. The 75 was in real bad shape, while the 77 had better overall integrity. As soon as I mentioned I picked them up to Mark, he wanted the 75 to convert to a Charger Funny Car. being as I knew I would probably never get around to fixing it, I gave it to him. Still have the 77 thought, and a Roscos' patrol car for the hood, chassis, and assorted parts (even thought I think I am going to use a later AMT B-Body for the chassis/drive train).
