Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Body color wire wheels, whitewalls, radio, heater, turn sigls, rumble seat. Good older repaint, chrome, interior and glass. Engine shows some use and age with oily residue but still has its drip pans. VMCCA Gold judged in 2002. One of only two of this model and body style known to survive.

Market commentary

Offered at Dave Rupps Ft. Lauderdale auction in 2006 where it no saled at $71,000 and at Auburn Fall also in 2006 where the reported bidding stopped at $70,000, this is a rare example of waiting paying off, or at least not costing too much. The long term owner stood by it in the dark recesses of the Hershey Lodge parking structure telling its story enthusiastically, a strong endorsement of the car and its history which paid off in a price thats fair to both the buyer and the seller.
