1973 DODGE ROYAL MONACO 9 PASSENGER STATION WAGON. FACTORY MATCHING NUMBER 440, WITH SPECIAL ORDERED HEAVY DUTY 727 AUTOMATIC. POWER STEERING, POWER DISC BRAKES, TILT AND TELESCOPIC STEERING WHEEL, FACTORY CRUISE CONTROL, POWER FRONT BENCH SEAT, ORIGINAL AM/FM RADIO, FACTORY CHROME ROOF RACK. THIS WAGON IS BEYOND A BARN FIND, WITH A VERY INTERESTING HISTORY, AND THE PAPERWORK TO BACK IT UP! SEIZED BY THE US BORDER PATROL ON 11-15-1982, NORTH OF TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NEW MEXICO, AND BROUGHT TO THE STATE POLICE IMPOUND YARD FOR UNKNOWN REASONS, THEN BROUGHT TO AN IMPOUND YARD ON 03-16-1983, OWNED BY WELLBORN SALES IN TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NEW MEXICO... IT SAT THERE, TOTALLY UNDISTURBED UNTIL I DISCOVERED IT IN NOVEMBER OF LAST YEAR, BOUGHT IT FROM THE SAME OWNER OF WELLBORN SALES WHO RECIEVED IT BACK IN 1983! I TOWOD TO MY HOUSE IN LAS CRUCES, NEW MEXICO, REPLACED THE FLUIDS, UPPER GASKETS, FUEL PUMP, REPLACED CARB, INSTALLED NEW CALIPERS AND DISC BRAKE PADS, NEW BATTERY, AND TOOK IT AND DROVE IT SEVERAL MILES! TRANNY SHIFTS EXCELLENT, ENGINE DOESNT KNOCK OR SMOKE, PRETTY AMAZING FOR A CAR THAT LAST DROVE IN 1982! Well not come with wheels and tires shown with. it well have 4 steel rims and well used tires.... IM RUNNING CAR OFF OF A GAS CAN NOW, THRU THE NEW FUEL PUMP, BECAUSE IT HAS A CLOGGED FUEL LINE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE TANK AND THE FUEL PUMP. CAR IS NOT RUSTED OUT IN THE LEAST, BUT FRONT PASSENGER FENDER IS DAMAGED FROM SOME PREVIOUS MIS-HAP BACK IN THE 70'S, I'D GUESS... PAINT FADED FROM SITTING IN NEW MEXICO SUN FOR ALMOST 30 YEARS, AND INTERIOR IS SUN BAKED ALSO. CAR HAS LESS THAN 100,000 MILES. NEW BATTERY, FUEL PUMP, INTAKE GASKET, PLUGS, WIRES, DIST CAP, CALIPERS AND PADS..STARTS ON KEY. HAS ORIGINAL ARIZONA PLATES FROM 1982 ON IT. NO TITLE, BUT I HAVE THE FORM FROM THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO, DATED 03-16-1982 WHERE THE STATE POLICE GAVE IT THERE CLEARANCE, AND I HAVE A BILL OF SALE FROM WELLBORN SALES TO MYSELF, ALSO...I HAD NO PLANS ON SEKKING THIS CAR, JUST RESTORING IT, BUT A 70 ROADRUNNER CAUGHT MY WIFE'S EYES, AND NEED TO FREE UP SPACE AND A LITTLE FUNDS FOR THAT. STILL NEEDS MINOR TINKERING, BUT THIS IS SOMETHING WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM CLEANED UP, YOU CAN DRIVE WHILE YOU RESTORE IT, AND ITS NOT ROTTED OUT, LIKE 99% OF THESE CARS FROM THAT ERA ARE....E-MAIL ME THRU E-BAY FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
