Ah now that's what I'm talking about!
Any ideas on a realistic price for this?

Yes I'm aware of the hardtop differences and tbh a 4 door pillarless car is quite a novelty in the uk and a blumo "lookalike" would be good enough for me as most people in uk wouldn't notice the difference.
I'm sure I could do a good enough job to make it look the part!
This one looks very good though so I reckon it'll be well over my budget.

That car looks a little to nice to make a bluesmobile out of.... On top of that, it being a hardtop.. Personally think that one needs to stay the way it is...

Odd that it has vent windows and non-power main windows.

Well spotted. I didn't even know you could get vent windows on a hard top.
Why would you anyway?

I bought this 74 Monaco for $2500. First thing she needed was a set of tires, the belts and brakes were done within the last 500 miles. Other than the 'stored old car smell', this is a time capsule clean Monaco, 42k, 1974. The interior is right off a ST Pattys day float, crazy green cloth. I've decided it is a great hooptie, and may or may not give it more BlueMO touches. I've got the A pillar spotlight, have had it for 20 years waiting for the right car to arrive. 14.5" post to post. Looking for a 4bbl to replace the 2bbl on the 400. TIA for all the good data on these cars!
