Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Cloth top, Gillette Super-Ribbed tires.

Condition

Solid interior. Several paint flaws and small dings in body, dinged up chrome, poor gaps, tired frame and undercarriage. Quite noticeable overspray has somehow made it onto the tires as well as some outer bits of the interior. While displayed in a museum, it was maintained but unused. Looks fine from far away but reveals plenty of flaws up close and is likely in need of mechanical sorting.

Market commentary

A neglected and superficially cosmetically fluffed-up Cord, this is more money than automobile. It needs attention pretty much everywhere and will challenge its new owner to keep it from being submerged in deferred maintenance costs.
