Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Clock, radio, banjo spoke steering wheel, heater. Older restoration. Paint edges chipped. Cracked badly at trunk comers. Weak trim chrome. Good upholstery and top. Aged but still will be a fine cruiser or tour car.

Market commentary

Modestly priced and appropriately recognizing the age of its restoration and its emerging shortcomings. The convertible sedan body style is highly practical and comfortable in all sorts of weather, with plenty of room for family and friends. For that reason alone, this is a sound value that could have brought a little more without being overpriced, even with the wobbly condition.
