What do I have?

[SuperK401]

Just picked up a 77 Dodge Monaco. White. U code engine. I see a rear sway bar on the back of it and dual exhaust. It has been sitting in a garage for the last 30 years. Carburetor is off of it. I’m not sure if I have the original carburetor or not. There are parts in the trunk.just picked it up yesterday so I haven’t looked at it yet. The body has literally next to zero rust on it. All the parts are there, but it does need a going through.

Is there "A38" on the fender tag?

Edit:
There might be two or three metal tags and they will most likely be attached to the radiator support and in front of the battery...similar to this:

If it's a former police car, then you might be interested in this thread:

I’ve known the family in the car my entire life. It is a 440 magnum hypo. Little bit late this evening, but I’ll get some pictures of it. Still on the trailer.

from my understanding. The car was ordered by the local county police and for some reason they did not purchase this one so my buddies dad bought it. I will look for the badge tomorrow. But I’m pretty sure it is.

I'm going to speculate the first seven characters in the VIN are WK41U7A:

W: Dodge Monaco
K: Police
41: 4 door sedan
U: 440-4V
7: 1977
A: Lynch Road, MI USA

Can anyone give me any information on this configuration. I do not see an A38 police package sticker. It only has 100 mile an hour speedometer. It does have rear sway bars. Maybe Dealer added? I thought you could only get a 400 in a regular Dodge Monaco. I thought it had to be a police order vehicle to get the 440?

it keeps saying parsing attempt fail. I’m gonna have to address this at a later date when I have more time. This is just taking more time than I have right now.

You have to down size your pictures. In your album just use edit to shrink the borders a little. Doesn't take much.
