1974 Dodge Monaco Unmarked Police Car (Ertl) 1/18
Product Details Temp out of stock
Police cars are usually normal cars which are upgraded with a police package provided by the manufacturer. The police package often modifies the car to be faster than ordinary vehicles, to be able to out-run vehicles driven by criminals in chases, and to enable fast responses during emergency situations. This is usually accomplished by adding a more powerful engine, high performance suspension, brakes, and tires, and heavy-duty transmission and cooling systems. Additional special equipment may include modified electrical wiring, inoperable rear door locks and rear windows, and other heavier-duty components. These components not only increase performance but also increase the car's longevity.

American muscle cars of the 1960s and early 1970s represent the high-water mark of factory-built performance in automotive history. Insurance surcharges, emissions regulations, and the 1973 oil crisis combined to end the original muscle car era almost overnight. Today these vehicles are among the most actively collected American automobiles, with exceptional examples regularly achieving six-figure prices at major auctions.
This 1/18 scale replica of the 1974 Dodge in Monaco is produced by Ertl to collector-grade specifications. At 1/18 scale — the most popular collector scale — the model measures approximately 10 inches in length and displays beautifully on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. Every detail — from paint finish to badging — is reproduced from measurements taken from the original vehicle.
