1936 Dodge D2 Sedan. What's this worth?

When I was a kid an old lady a few doors down had a '36, really dug that car. At $6K that car oughta sell fast.

This is why I got involved. I can't let it get cut up. They aren't making any more of these and I would happily buy it just to wait for the right person... IF I had a place to put it. I still may do it. Can't let it get cut up.

If somebody is seriously interested, PM me. He specifically doesn't want "internet" people reaching out to him.

Oh thank baby Jesus it's so far away. I'm not sure I could have resisted that rabbit hole. Neat wierd old car. You just need to find the right buyer, that might be here.

I wish I had a spare 6k. I'd pay it in a heartbeat

Wow, that thing looks amazing! Definitely needs to go to a good home.

Fastest, someone here with $6k. Most, a national listing or auction.

$6K was only brought up as a suggested price vs the low ball offers. Would the seller really consider $6K or wait it out for more? I would think closer to $8-10K for the right classic Dodge buyer.

Yeah, that's actually what he wanted (10). 6 was seen as a lowest possible outcome if they got desperate, which they are not at the moment - and that's the price he'd sell it to ME for, not anybody else. You know old folks, personal connections matter a lot, he wants to see it go to a good home.

If somebody is actually interested in the 8-10 range, let me know. Wasn't intending for this to be a For Sale ad ;)

Understood.

You still have a PM.

My wife is not a car buff. It's all I can do to get her to put gas in it. We don't share a love for cars. However, she does dig pre-war cars. A pre-war family cruiser for the kids and grand kids with suicide doors??? It would be a home run.

The offer I sent you was all I've got. Actually, it's more than I've got, but I will stretch.

I respect if your real goal is to flip it, or do something yourself.

But if it's a good home he is looking for, THAT I can provide.

I've never driven a '36 Dodge but I've had some seat time in a '36 Plymouth which I assume would be somewhat similar. Cars like that are a lot of fun, but it's slow fun. Acceleration, shifting, braking are all done in a leisurely fashion, but that's the whole point - you're out to enjoy the ride. Find a nice, quiet secondary road out in the country and just cruise along.

If I had not just bought a boat, I would be banging off the walls to go pick that up for $10k. It would mean eating ramen and no entertainment for months, but it would be worth it. Seriously.

Love it. I'd sell the 914 for that if I didn't mind being broke and homeless after SWMBO throws me out.

No brainer for listing on Bring A Trailer.

The thing with this car is that it falls into the niche of "Not Investment Grade" and "Not really usable as a car". So what do you do with it other than Hot Rod in an effort to make it of use? And who wants a 4 door hotrod?

For the record, I think that car looks amazing.
