A happy wife, a happy life.

Find another car that you like and give the Monte to your wife.

It depends upon what the problems with the car are, but I think I would sell. The signature Montes were sold as collectible from new and many have peen put away from new with no miles. It will be a long time for them to be valuable if ever. The same thing happened with the 1978 Corvette Pace Cars. They have been hovering between 15K and 25K depending on equipment and condition for the last fifteen years. I don't see their value increasing significantly anytime soon because there are too many of them.

you have to remember that cars have more plastic parts and thinner metal. so by the time it should be a collector, or worth more than it was new, it'll be as deteriorated as your pappie's favorite underwear.
