Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, wide whitewalls, dual enclosed sidemounts, luggage trunk. An older concours quality restoration for the Imperial Palace Collection now starting to lose its edge but still exceptional.

Market commentary

Considering the quality and design excellence of the coachwork this is a modest result, despite the fact it is a closed sedan. A fine example of the value collectors place on appearance, grace and balance on quality chassis. This result is appreciably more than the $639,000 with commission which it brought in 2006 at RM Auctions Amelia Island sale.
