Yes as far as I know Donny still has the Warpig, I assume it will make an appearance one of these days.....

Best thread in ages!! Thanks Sandy and love the photos you have added. The period brochure art is fantastic and had to double take the first pic of the two C bodies together in NJ, mine came from Whiting, NJ (eventually) but isn't pillarless like the one in the pic :thumbright:

Hello everyone,

Today is the 50th 'birthday' of Linda's Monaco, built March 15th, 1967 at the Belvedere, Illinois plant.

I used one of the online tag decoders and here are the results, plus a photo from last week in Sainsbury's car park with new front tyres, a nice photo someone took at one of the Mopar Nats events and ... a typical day in LindaSandyMoparland.

All the best

Linda's car was purchased by its first owner, Mr H. Dale Johnson of Columbus, Kansas from Mitts Motors of Columbus, Kansas 50 years ago today, 30th March, 1967.

Had it out last night at the local American car club meet.
