Condition
Very good, older paint, chrome and interior. Nothing is super fresh, but it doesn't need anything either. Built originally by Jack Thompson in the '50s and featured in Hot Rod Magazine in 1958. Upholstery by Tony Nancy and pinstriping by Art Summers. Restored and shown in the 1990s.
Market commentary
This is a truly sweet street rod, done professionally, with exquisite attention to detail but not turned into jewelry. It has a marvelous history and brought an enthusiastic but not excessive price.
