Jezebelle........

[bluefury361]

I know I mentioned that Jezebelle may be for sale. Well, I've decided she does really need a new caretaker. The problem I'm facing is what value to place on her. I have not thought about that before now. I know what's invested is mostly non returnable. She's really paid in full with fun and adventure she has brought to us, (Ellie and I).
I've looked at the value guides and have been watching the market lately but it's hard for me to be objective.
A lot of you know her history and some have seen her at various shows. She was awarded a first in class at Carlisle in 2014, several class awards at various all Mopar shows, a founders award at Mobile, Best C body several times, and was invited and participated in the Concours de'Elegance of America in Plymouth Michigan.
Just looking for advise/opinions from the top C body experts in the world, you guys. Y'all here can be a lot more un-objective than I will be. Hoping to hear some honest opinions.
Anyone interested can PM me for details. Trades are not out of the question, (5th wheel RV)?

Thanks guys.

Will.

Got cash.....?

 

[Wollfen]

Hey Will, for us that don't remember all the options and such, can you give us a run down on all it has? It will help for sure.

No matter what you come up with for a price, you just know every inquiry is going to be someone who looked at all the car value guides online first.
Be prepared to have to defend your pricing.

In all seriousness if I could pay you what the car is worth plus extra for the story behind her resurrection I would jump on a plane tomorrow. I am sure you will hear from a few members but I really wish I could give her a new home up North and I have a willing passenger that would make her feel right at home. Good luck Will!

$3500, c'mon now.

I'm out. . .

 

[67Monaco]

I say shoot for the moon. Let them try to talk you down.

 

[bluefury361]

$3500, c'mon now.

Now were getting somewhere.......!

 

[bluefury361]

No need to shoot for the moon. It's hard to put a value on provenance and Jezebelle comes with a load of that.
I figure the pleasure she has brought to us alone off sets the entire effort and cost.

She needs a good home and I don't need to recoup my monitary investment. I also won't go into "flipper" territory on the price.
But be assured you won't be able to duplicate her for what it will take.

I' d put it around 20,000 - 22,000 that' s a offer starting point

Red car , white interior ,it’s a 300. It just checked 3 of my favourite boxes.

And here I was honestly thinking 30K.

And here I was honestly thinking 30K.

Why not ? Look at the numbers out there....Why not?

 

[cantflip]

I know you've struggled with this decision for a while. I hope it all goes smooth and is fair Will. If I was to want a 300 (and I do like them), this would be "the one".

That's about where I am at Dave. She is a used car now with a few minor issues after 5 years and 20K miles.
30K sounds great but is not realistic I think.

You can ask $30k and let them beat you up on whatever minor flaws you think it has. When the dust settles you should be in the low $20's and both feel like you got a good deal.
