Market commentary

At Christie's in Pebble Beach in '91 when Clapton bought it (for $104,500) this was a rusty, bubbly lump with an atrocious repaint and Blue interior. It's gotten better over the years but it's hard to get those rust bubbles of out the car's image. This price is fair for the car, which really needs the words "complete restoration" in its description to make it worth any more than this.
