Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Polished wheel discs, Firestone wide whitewall tires, Bausch & Lomb headlamps, dual sidemount spares, rumble seat, luggage rack, trunk with black cloth cover, Spirit of Ecstasy radiator mascot, wood dash and window trim, Seth Thomas dash clock, rear wheel brakes.

Condition

Decent paint with some cracks and bubbles. Tired, significantly worn upholstery and top. One of 28 Brewster Playboy Roadsters built, originally a Willoughby 'Mayfair' sedan, later retrofitted with this body. Displayed at the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance in 2013. Recent mechanical work, but has the presentation of a tired older restoration.

Market commentary

Sold by RM at Amelia in 2013 for $313,500, a not terrifically satisfying result here that cost someone along the line $70 Large. A quality car for a reasonable price, the new owner should be satisfied with both the car and the price.
