Equipment
Bausch & Lomb headlights, dual sidemounts and spotlights, cigarette dispenser/lighter with ancient Camels, wood spoke 35-inch wheels, diver's helmet taillights, leather windshield visor.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
2017 Pebble Beach FIVA Preservation Award winner, all original. Torn original upholstery, stiff original top. Unusual coachwork which is fully collapsible, folding flat on the rear deck and with the c-pillars removed leaving a straight body line from the radiator to the tail. Lovely and actually runs fairly well.
Market commentary
The folding top would crumble into a million fragments if it were folded, but the idea is clever. The first car across Worldwide's auction block it was, as it apparent from the result, well received by the bidders who paid generously not only for its preservation but also its performance and style.
