Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Body color wire wheels, folding windshield, dual aeroscreens, badge bar, radiator and headlight stone guards. Clean, sharp car in better than new condition. Owned from the 60s into the 90s by Robert Wood who restored it in the mid 60s. Re restored in the 90s and further refreshed in the mid 00s. 2007 JCNA National Concours Champion in addition to many other awards.

Market commentary

This is a quality SS 100, and its value is enhanced by the continuous ownership history since the 60s. Those factors, however, are not enough to offset the 2 1 2 liter engines drag on its value and it is appropriately priced in this transaction. Most drivers, and certainly most onlookers, arent going to make particular note of the missing liter, which saved the buyer at least $200,000.
