Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Remote spotlight, skirts, wide whitewalls. Cosmetically redone with good paint and interior and weak chrome. A disappointing car even after a recent extensive detailing, but not unexpected in an enthusiast restoration which took 12 years to complete. No Reserve.

Market commentary

Sold for $110,000 at Goodings Pebble Beach auction in August and improved by the ministrations of McCall Motorsports in Monterey since, but it is difficult to detail away the lingering effects of an enthusiast restoration which took over a decade to complete by the time it was done the earliest work was already gaining pati.
