Really nice. I would pay $5000 for it.
I love posts about Gesswein. I have such great memories of growing up near there & all the cool cars that were around when I was a kid. My uncle has a real nice 300C. My uncles are HUGE Mopar guys. They all still live 10 miles from Gesswein.

I tried to buy that car 2-3 years ago from the original owner. She wanted $25k. I couldn't get it through her head it was a 75 hundred dollar car. I guess Gesswein is a lot more persuasive than me.

i don't see how they sell anything....every car they advertise is overpriced.
That may be true but they sure are nice, aren't they.....

My pop-pop bought a 74 Monaco new in that color, it was a four door with a 400 4 barrel. I was supposed to get it when his time was up. He outlived the car and traded the old dodge on a Caddy

The owner has said many times his primary interest is not in selling the cars. He buys them because he likes them, likes to display them and they are used to create showroom traffic in his new car store. I bet he even uses them for tax purposes somehow.

but he has to sell them, at some point, just to roll inventory

Dave, he's a collector and he owns a very successful new car store. He's not a classic car dealer. Yes, the cars do change hands over time but no more so than you or I would if we had large collections.

If I had a large amount of cash and cars I dont think I would move any. I dont like change

At this point, the business & collection have to have been handed down to at least one generation. I left there in 1989 & I remember Gesswein.
