Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels, dual rear spares, Mother of Pearl instrument panel, white steering wheel, driving light, dual spotlights. Great paint and chrome except for a small repair on the trunk. Trim and interior are pristine. Described as one of three special cabriolets built early in the 540K run with radiator set back behind the front wheel centerline. No pre restoration history is given. Restored to 1996 Pebble Beach class winning condition and still essentially in PB condition.

Market commentary

Where did this car originate What was its history before restoration Where was it found and in what condition These questions were unaddressed and might have contributed to bidders reluctance to meet the consignors expectations.
