Equipment
Red steel wheels, whitewalls, radio. Excellent paint, interior, chrome and glass. Chassis was restored like new but now has aged and been driven without being detailed. Still a very nice example, but no longer the showpiece it once was.
Market commentary
Consignment 5. Sold by RM at Amelia Island in 2006 for $209,000 in much better maintained and fresher condition. The seller here could have been faulted for not spending a few thousand dollars on a thorough cleaning and detailing but the result indicates it wasnt necessary. No harm, no foul, except perhaps to the buyer who paid handsomely for a less than rich Cord Phaeton.
