Equipment
Wheel covers, Firestone wide whitewalls, radiator mascot, amber driving lights, dual spotlights, rumble seat, column shift, dash clock, wood dash and door trim.
Condition
Paint rub through on the right front fender, a huge scratch above the right rear wheel well, a chip near the right taillight, and cracking around the radiator mascot. The paint finish is sound otherwise. Very good interior other than a few small cracks in the door trim. Very tidy underneath. An eye-catching, solid car done well, but it has too many flaws to be a show car.
Market commentary
Offered by Worldwide at Auburn in 2009 with a reported high bid of $52,00, it's added 1,267 miles to the odometer since then but is in essentially the same very good condition, testimony to both the quality if its restoration and the care it has received over the past eight years. It may not be everyone's defiinition of what a "Classic" car is with its bubble fenders, but is defined as a Classic by CCCA and that makes it eligible for all kinds of marvelous events and introductions to new, enthusiastic, friends. On that basis alone it is a reasonable acquisition at this price.
