About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Continental Club and AACA winner seven or more years ago. The paint has a few chips but the chrome and interior are very good. Engine compartment and underbody were restored like new and still present well if somewhat aged. Needs nothing to be toured with pride.

Market commentary

Sold at Mecum's Spring Classic in Belvedere in 2003 for $21,000, after its sale here it went south to Mecum Indy a week later where it brought a reported high bid of $28,000. The odometer has added just 43 miles in the past fourteen years, but the car is in better condition now than it was then and this is a reasonable result.
