RE: [Chrysler300] 300C At Mecum Kissimee





It could be any number of factors leading to the 'dissappointing' (term used loosely) result. In this case it appears the car wasn't really a great example, however, as time goes by, interest in muscle cars and some special interest cars will likely fade while the next big thing rises, reducing the values of many of the cars we've seen growing over the past several years. Unless the younger generations coming along take a serious interest in the cars that are of interest to us and maintain the demand for them, the prices will fall. I don't know about you but I rarely see young guys taking any interest in our cars of the 50's and 60's any more, even though I'd like them to.

Yanno, sometimes its a case of nobody at the auction having much interest in the car.  If you only have one or two bidders, and neither is a 300 nut, and the seller doesn't use a reserve, the car isn't going to go for top dollar.  I have seen some letter cars go for what I would consider peanuts at the annual Atlantic City auction, because nobody there knew what they were, or didn't care.  Unfortunately, at the time, I couldn't buy them.

As the owner of a 300C (Gauguin/white convertible -- and with almost this much invested in simple cosmetic restoration), and although I spot some discrepancies in the photos,  I am disappointed to see this one selling for what seems like such a low price!  Has anyone actually inspected the car to perhaps shed some light on the reasons for this valuation?  I’m not in it at all for the investment angle, but that low number is a bit disconcerting… !

Greetings to all,

The Mecum auction this weekend in Kissimee FL. only listed one car a 300G. Sold at $39,500 on Thursday. VIN was not listed but stated it was a California car. Anyone know if this is a known car?
