Finding parts for the Premier/Monaco can often become a frustrating experience. At the Chrysler/Jeep dealers, all Premier parts are on ‘discontinued’ status, which simply means when all of the Chrysler warehouse locations are out, there will be no more. When your local dealer looks up the part, many will come back as ‘CCNS’ which means Chrysler no longer produces the part. You can email me at any time to get factory part numbers.
Major parts stores like AutoZone, PepBoys, Advance Auto Parts, O’Reily’s, etc. have access to many rebuilt and/or remanufactured parts. Always check their websites for availability, especially since most of the stores don’t stock them, you’ll have to order them anyway. If you have trouble finding a part, simply send me an email and I’ll check availability for you.
Ebay has become one of the best sources for Premier parts, and they usually sell for really low prices. If you search eBay stores, you can find hundreds of parts. Check it out. www.ebay.com

1991 ES Limited in Colorado Red
My current Premier project, this car has been a real challenge. I purchased this car from the second owner in 2002, it was located in Maryland. After fixing most all the major problems with the car, I sold it to a young woman who drove it for almost 2 years. During this time many thing went ‘bad’ on the car including the water pump, horn pad switch, power mirror switch, rear wheel bearings, front cv axles, brake lines, and a lot more. When I found out the car was parked in a yard with a For Sale sign, I told her I’d like to have it back. So she sold it back to me and I’ve had a blast getting it back on the road. I’m proud to say at 149,000 she is running strong and looks great! I had it repainted at the local MAACO shop, and found a 92 donor car in a Virginia salvage yard which yielded virtually every part I needed to bring this one back to life. Next up is to refinish the silver wheels and work on some underside rusty areas. This Premier is one of the few ES Limited models which came with the cloth interior from the factory instead of leather.
