Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Air ride TCI suspension, lowered until it scrapes, rack and pinion steering, AC, C4 transmission, beautifully equipped Zephyr flathead V12 with period speed equipment. A very nice full custom. Paint and interior are immaculate. Offered at No reserve.

Market commentary

A great price for a very nice custom rod. No doubt Saturday Prime Time positioning during the Speedchannel coverage helped. RM sold Scrape, a similarly artful Zephyr custom with late model drivetrain, at Monterey in 2000 for $275,000. Is this Zephyrs beautifully executed period engine and different paint worth $157,000 more Apparently the two bidders thought so, and whos to argue with them.
