Hey,

I need an important information,

.....what's the lenght of the 1974 Dodge Monaco?.....

Someone said over 7 meters, is that right?

So, can someone tell me, the lenght of the Bluesmobile??


Dean

please in meters, when its possible

Dean, the Bluesmobile is 0.00348 miles long. :-D

Oh, you wanted that in meters, eh? LOL. Just ribbin', although that number is accurate! In meters the Bluesmobile is 5.60070 meters long. Which is 18.375 feet

Keeping in mind that's the length of the 1974 Dodge Monaco, I suppose for the Bluesmobile the push-bars would have to be considered.

length of a 1974 Dodge Monaco is in metric: 5,72m w/out pushbars.

Hmmm ... the specs I've seen have the '74 Monaco at 220.5 inches. 5601mm. We have a discrepancy here of almost 5 inches. ? :o

This is what the authorities measured when my car has been registered in Germany. But my car has these bumperettes front and rear maybe this explains the discrepancy...

Very interesting, El-Wood! With the difference being around 4.7 inches I could see the bumperettes making up that difference nicely.

5601mm - bumper to bumper - 220.5 inches (standard mid-70's C-body, I think)
5720mm - with bumperettes! - 225.2 inches

Cool stuff!
