The car has a written appraisal of $ 8500.00 List price for the Monte Carlo in 1977 was $ 6745.00 My father worked at General Motors and in those days a General Motors employee could order a new car and when it arrived at the dealership it was given to a General Motors Executive to drive for three months or 3,000 miles then the car was returned to you. That was a pretty go discount in those days. I will be in Florida in February I will deliver it to you!
I wasn't making an offer, I was wondering if you thought it was worth more now than when you paid $4245 for it. That being said, if it is for sale, you should post it - there are lots of people that would want it, especially if it's in Bristol condition. I drove them on a daily basis when I was younger, they were in the fleet of my employer. They were almost as popular a rental as the 77 Cutlass.

That reminds me in high school cigarette race boats had an ad of a beautiful woman laying face down on the sand next to the water with huge cleavage, and it said "do it in a cigarette, if you can"...... I loved that magazine ad.
Sorry about that, just got it in an email from a friend who use to own a hi-perf tire business,...figured those Europeans were a little less frigid about ads like that. It was good...
Almost the opposite of "exotic"... but you will likely never own anything cooler: Steve McQueen's 1952 Chevrolet Pickup
Got this little Beauty a few weeks ago. Kind of exotic as it is a diesel station wagon in the USA. We all know Americans don't like no Wagons and they don't like no diesels
Yup, that's me. Never thought I'd own a truck. Now, there's not much I'd rather drive. (except for that little red thing tailgating me)
Somehow I seem to remember your truck got stolen a few years ago? You got it back or got a new one..? Yup, I had a truck as well, a Chevy Silverado but needed my own gas station to feed it. Just back from Tampa in my Diesel Wagon today, 42 mpg @ 80 mph. If I drove the speed limit @ 70 it would probably show 44 on the various 'puter read outs. (2 digital and 1 analog mpg indicators )
Yep, my old truck was stolen. A 2000 F250 with that legendary, bullet-proof 7.3 diesel. Took me a year to find that truck. Stolen 3 weeks later! Anyhow, Geiko reimbursed me well. Time was against me in shopping for a replacement. The old 7.3's with low miles are far and few between, so I went in partners with Ford Motor Credit and bought a 2012 F250. I needed a good tow vehicle for the YF photo boat which weighed nearly 10,000 lbs with trailer, so my options were limited to something diesel. I really don't need something this big now, but the mileage isn't terrible (16/22) and it brings joy to my inner redneck.
I personally own 1952 Mercedes Gullwing prototype and I restore and sell 300SL roadsters and Gullwings and most pre 1971 Mercedes classics for a living
Was there a 300SL Mercedes poster here today,....and withdrew his posting? (thought I had a notice in my email)
