I bet more than a few people here were getting interested at mad-mk1's post .... Matt , what sort of ball park figure are we talking and what has it got , how good/bad is the roof since that's most likely all you'd be buying .

I've had my eye on another Monaco for 14 years.
Just sitting waiting to be restored.
The owner is 63 years old now and looking less likely to do anything with it. Trouble is, if he waits another 10 years, I'll be 63 and less likely to as well.
Get back to me in 2017, I'll let you know how I'm going.
John.

That's when your son are useful to you. He just restore it and you just drive in it and enjoy. :wink: Nothing is better than that!

It is completely stripped except for loom and grill. Maybe has the moustache. The roof itself is good but i dont know how it well it would come off the shell. The car itself is long gone but the roof could be reused in my opinion if it seperates from the shell cleanly.

The car isnt for sale but neither is anything the bloke owns. The problem as Jim and I know is that he knows what he has and isnt in rush to get rid of anything so charges accordingly in most instances.

Jim has bought some stuff off him and I bought my woody from him. But its hard to even get a look in the shed / sheds let alone past the drive.

PM me for any other information.

Matt
