I'm not aggressively or actively selling my Monaco Brougham, but its technically "For Sale" if someone's willing to pay $7,000.00 for the car.
From various channels, I get people asking me if my cars are for sale and this way I can refer them here. At the very least, we may get a few more page views.
With notable exceptions, every car I have is always for sale at the right price; sometimes, though, that price is best quantified in my favorite unit of measure: briefcases.

... my favorite unit of measure: briefcases. Or one briefcase full of cash?  - Here's a few pics from a couple of the 2011 threads.    |

Or one briefcase full of cash? That's exactly it. It's fun to see pictures of her in Michigan and Illinois; she's made every trip under her own power and without so much as a hiccup. Still, nobody can accuse me of hoarding Monacos anymore. Now I'm holding out for my price. |

Sweet Monaco!!! I had it's sister, she was silver, black top, with black int. Mine had the door pocket, but manual door locks and windows! She ended up donating her parts to other 74's, ghost has her front bumper and i think a fender, but I can't remember for sure. Too many Monaco's over the years and not enough brain capacity! LOL  |

Very interesting. Did yours have the 400 or 440 for a motor? The black and silver is a really sharp color combination, too.
It's also easy to forget what part is where; for example, the plastic speedometer protector from Arthur's Mairn County Monaco resides over the Civilian 12o unit in this car, that I took from my green Custom.
I love this car and, now that summer's back, I've been driving her regularly.

Thank you all for the praise of my car. I'm very hesitant to actually sell her, but the urge for a Trans-Am has been getting stronger and stronger. My price, while a bit high for these cars, is fair. Since I'm not too keen on selling it, I have a stronger negotiation point for the car.
Reliability-wise, I drove the car from Virginia to Wisconsin, then to Michigan and back, as well as a few trips to Chicago. If I have a long drive to make, I love taking this car.

I got a reasonable offer for my car and she's on her way to a new home in Illinois. I'm going to miss her, but the funds will go towards building a better Bluesmobile.

Did ya tell the buyer about this site? I did and I also made sure that, if he needs any parts, he has my number. I hope that she's going to be cared for as well in his tenure as she was in mine. |
