If I was to spend that much money, I would want to personally inspect it, put it on a hoist and take it for a test drive. It may or may not be worth it, but how could anyone determine that from Ebay photos? It could run like a dog, handle like a pig and be full of bog. Better to put it in an upmarket showroom, like the old days, if they wanted top dollar. I do agree that tastes have changed. Watched a video a guy posted of cars entering a car show in Victoria Australia but it was virtually all 60’s, 70’s and 80’s cars. Huge turnout but what was shocking to me was each one probably cost more than the 300G in paint, engines and wheels etc. Couldn’t believe they spent so much money on boring cars we used to trash and send to the wreckers. And they say we have a cost of living crisis in this country? Henry From: chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:chrysler-300-club-international@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of dplotkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Too much money for the money it will likely need to make most of us happy with it. Thick red paint on auction or consignment cars is De rigueur. However the other thing going on is the waning interest in Chrysler letter cars. 20 years ago these were $150,000 cars but the hobby and tastes have moved on to later cars. I do my best to solicit interest among younger car show attendees. Every young man that comes to my house to fix or maintain anything is given a free tour of my garage. Some are mildly interested or polite. Others are gobsmacked. We have to keep this up.
