Market commentary

One of 184 built and 46 believed surviving 3 1 2 Liter Mark VI Dropheads, the use this car has experienced since its restoration and the attention it has received are a strong endorsement of its quality and the care it has received. It would not have been surprising to see it bring another $20K .
