Auto World Blues Brothers 1974 Dodge Monaco Police Pursuit 1:18 Scale Diecast
Prominently featured in the 1980 Universal Pictures film The Blues Brothers, this 1974 Dodge Monaco was a decommissioned Mount Prospect police car, purchased by Elwood Blues at an auction after he traded a previous car (a 1968 Cadillac Sixty Special) for a microphone. When describing the car to his brother Jake Blues, Elwood says, âItâs got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. Itâs got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. Itâs a model made before catalytic converters so itâll run good on regular gas.â The sedan has the ability to perform seemingly impossible stunts, such as flipping backwards in midair and even âflyingâ for very brief periods of time. Clearly unimpressed, especially considering the cigarette lighter does not work, Elwood slams on the gas and jumps over an open drawbridge. Jake nonchalantly states, âCarâs got a lot of pickup.â Elwood retorts, âSo what do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?â Jake replies, âFix the cigarette lighter.â
Auto World proudly presents a detailed replica of the Bluesmobile with the loud speaker mounted on the roof that Jake and Elwood broad-casted their upcoming âBlues Extravaganzaâ fund raising concert. True-to-life figures of The Blues Brothers, Elwood and Jake, are included.
