For Sale 26K-Mile 1973 Dodge Monaco Brougham

[Samplingman]

Worth every penny. Unfortunately, it will end up on another site for $28K, without anyone ever enjoying the ride.

More than I would have thought but it looked like a pretty good car. I think it helped how many detailed pictures he had of the car in the listing.

It makes me wonder:
1. How much more would that car have brought if it was a 2 door?
2. Would it brought more or less if it was a wagon?

I agree, I didn't think it would hit that number but would have gone that high.

A two door version would be curious and without the 440

I don't think so. That's more than double what he would pay.

We'll see it for sale again within a month for $35k.

I dont see a resale. Maybe, but thats a hell of a gamble, paying on the high side for a car to resell

 

[1978 NYB]

I'm hoping whoever bought it considers it his dream car and enjoys driving it.

 

[1978 NYB]

And brings it to Carlisle so we can put our eyeballs on it to see what we missed out on.....

 

[polara71]

Im sure they will

O.K. its not exactly apples to oranges but in the same family...I posted a CL ad for a '73 Polara with 51k original miles about a month ago in WI. Me and my friend Glen Barnett went to look at it and confirmed the condition and miles. It needed a new electric assist choke pull off and bottom seat fabric (spliting seams). He was asking $2700 and my gut tells me you could get it for 2k, invest $600 for two items and have 2600 total into the car. Now $2600 total invested vs 14k for the other black one. I could have money left over to invest in a Roth IRA plus pay off on the home or remodel whatever. For me the ble one is the smart choice for those of us on a budget.

I disagree .... Of you didnt mind the four door this is the way to go....all the options with great colors

 

[polara71]

Dads ready to sell his Polara again. Hes always looking for something different and that has 35000 miles on it

 

[saforwardlook]

That black 73 Monaco 4 door was an outstanding car, and there is no comparison to Polaras in 1973 IMO. It went for what I thought it should get. If it was a 2 door in that condition and with those options, it would have cleared $20K.

 

[polara71]

Twenty? WOW .....

 

[furyfinn]

$14K and change... A little less than I suspected, but close enough!

4-5 years ago, who would have guessed? A 4 dr C-body worth that much...

 

[commando1]

I still don't believe it.

 

[Fury Pursuit]

You guys will come around sooner or later,.....good cars in good colors always bring top dollar; no matter what the make or model....they always have.

I bought it. Its an amazing car. Find me another! It won't be for sale for a long time! It does have some minor issues that I plan to correct which will make this time machine even closer to perfection! For what it is and the overall condition, I think I got a bargain. It drives tight and beautifully just like a new car.
