Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Paint is fair with some cracking over the panel seams. Gas filler flap is worn through on edges. Rear quarter panel bottom shows signs of rust forming. Bumpers and trim are oxidized and scratched. Doors don't fit flush. Interior has some split upholstery seams and faded carpet. Gauge lenses are age cracked. Engine had a coolant leak at the water neck and lost finish there. Underbody shows dirt and light rust. A basic old car that's gotten intermittent work when necessary and is currently drivable, but barely presentable.
Market commentary
This fits the definition of a novelty car, one that few people are familiar with and that will get attention just for its quirkiness. There are many things it needs, some of them fixed at moderate cost but parts are nearly impossible to find. The Auburn Spring bidders thoughtfully valued it at a modest price that reflects all that it needs.
