The 1969 HK model, thought to be worth well in excess of $100,000, was first found as part of an investigation into a southern suburbs cannabis crop.
In one raid, police found 15 cannabis plants growing hydroponically along with prescribed equipment and various collectable items including a rare coin collection.
A search of a workshop later uncovered 35 more plants and a number of high-value vehicles including two Harley Davidson motorcycles and the Monaro.
"When police returned to the premises to seize the Monaro, it had been removed from the workshop," they said in a statement on Tuesday.
"Its current location is unknown."
The car's registration is S836BRJ.
Anyone with information regarding the car's whereabouts is asked to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
