Hey guys,
Im looking to spread the on going cult following of "The Blues Brothers" throughout my country of Australia in my own unique way. I am a HUGE Blues Brothers fan and would love to have my very own "Bluesmobile" whatever the cost

I have a few questions though
- How available secondhand for sale are 74 Monaco's
- Was it only the 'cop car' versions of the Monaco that came with the 440 Plant?
- Where is the best place to start looking to buy one?
- Who would have close-up photos of the actual cars used in the movie so I can build the car to become very genuine

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks form down-under

AussieJake

They're out there friend...just gotta look for them! This is a good place, as member Steam McQueen often posts links to cars. EBay is another source. Good luck, and good hunting!
