Re: [Chrysler300] Letter Car Prices

[Brandt Jimerson <brandt300g@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes hello John and everyone in "300sville"!!  Just wondering John, will the G hardtop your selling be rated as a never driven concours #1,  or a strong #2 show (and forgive me if this info. is already evident in the list-server, lazy me)!  For pride of ownership purposes only, because I NEVER plan on selling Melissa, (my G), which is also a hardtop, I would estimate her in middle 3 cond. at around $25,000.  You think this is a realistic figure or optimistic!?  Thank you much!  300ly, Brandt H. Jimerson, 300G, San Diego area, CA.

Bidding was robust but stumbled at $42,500 well short of my 48K reserve.  I have a slot a Barrett Jackson in Florida.  I will offer the car to the club members first though at $42,000.  Buyer will have to wait two weeks so I don't have to pay sellers fee to A/C people.   Car is currently in A/C and if I hear from someone tonight, I will divert and ship directly it to them.  Paperwork will take two weeks to clear (not released by A/C people until then).  I will require wire payment on Monday.  Shipper will have instructions to not release car until funds have been received.

Only thing the car really needs is the completion of the chrome removal in the engine.  I did some work on the interior, the paint has been totally cleaned up....there is one tiny chip on the trunk remaining.

Also, a really nice hard-top C was a no sale in the low '50's.  Someone said the owner had a reserve of 70K on it.  It is an odd color but the car is gorgeous!

I just confirmed a deal with Car Collector magazine to do a four part series commencing in their May issue on the restoration of the G three speed.  Hopefully this will make for some good reading.

Regards,

John

Henry, It seems the prices are holding.  A 300H convertible (3- condition) just went for 59K.  They are certainly getting attention.  My hard top red G is set to go tomorrow at 6:00 at Kruse (#1864).  I will drop a note to let you know how it does.

Just received the new Hemmings-April issue- yesterday.  Prices asked for
letter cars reflect the B-J prices achieved.  A red G cvt for $225,000 in
the front color ad section on pg. 30, a D hardtop for $205,450 (no AC), a
black G cvt for $225,450(same seller as for the D), and a black G cvt stated
as a strong class 3 for $95,000--ad includes two color pics of this one.

I'm sure quite a few of you subscribe to Hemmings, but mail delivery being
what it is these days,  thought I'd pass this info. on.  Guess "askin' ain't
gettin" might apply here and we'll never really know, but I'm still stunned
by the B_J prices and figured a lot of it was the selling situation.  Still
gives one pause.  Sure hope all of our cars don't end up in museums.
