Need some advice on selling

My dad has a 1978 Chrysler Newport he's been trying to sell for a few years now, with no success at all. (He's really not much for selling stuff.) One of his biggest problems, I think, is that he really has no idea where to advertise it; he's put it in Auto Trader a few times, but this isn't the sort of car you buy to drive back and forth to work. Does anyone here have any suggestions as to where a car like this could be best advertised, in print or online? We'd appreciate whatever help we could get.
Oh, and if you're curious, it's a 78 Newport, as I said, in mint condition, with around 69000 original miles (I think, could be lower), 400 CID, all original including the paint. It's really a hell of a nice car. It's located near London, Ontario. If you'd like more information or photos, drop me an email at [email protected].
Thanks for any help.

Well, sorry to inform you but they aren't worth anything. No collector wants them. I used to have a 77 Newport with a 440, tow package, mint interior, very little rust, original paint, but all I got for it was 800 dollars. And thats not all, the guy that bought it was using it for demolition derby. So the only good thing about that was that I would never see it again. It was a beautiful car. Oh well, bought it for 800, put thousands into it, and could only sell it for 800. Oh well.
