That Monaco is a 1975 or 76 due to the front window has 2 small vent windows. A 1974 Monaco has a solid window. Cool car though. Also the front window could be replaced and no one would know the difference. Most don't anyway,

"Is this the new Blues Mobile or what?"
"Fix the cigarette lighter."

Actually, this would more likely be the real Blues Mobile because in the Blues Brothers movies they used a 1974-1975ish Dodge Monaco and not a Ford Crown Victoria like the one that you see next to it.

The one next to it was used in the second movie for inside shots. There's probably 10 74 monaco's that drive in and around chicago, so if this is an actual one i still dont know.

Well I'm doubting that this one was ever used in any of the movies either, because there are a lot of replicas of this car, and I mean a lot. A vast majority of existing Dodge Monaco's between the years of 1974 and 1975 are made into reproduction "Blues Mobiles" replicas. I can certainly tell you that a the original Blues Brothers movie used a 1974 Dodge Monaco.

not from the movie. movie version did not have the forklift thingy on the front, and also had the dashboard littered with cigarettes and other crap.

Could of been used like the one next to it for close ups, idk. I'm pretty sure cigarettes from 1979 and 1980 wouldn't of survived this long on a dashboard lol.
