Equipment
Dual sidemounts, black wire wheels, Lincoln blackwall tires, luggage rack, spotlights, leather upholstery, cloth top.
Condition
Excellent paint and interior. Good chrome. Largely original underneath, including the coachwork. Ex-Henry Wing and Paul Stern. Nearly continuous history under the stewardship of several prominent collectors, and beautifully recommissioned without succumbing to over-restoration.
Market commentary
Sold by Bonhams at Quail Lodge in 2010 for $172,000 before spending about GBP 50,000 on mechanical and body work and paint. Offered here last year with a reported high bid of $280,000 and sold much more reasonably today. Sympathetically restored and maintained, a sound value at this post-block negotiated price.
