Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Mostly original with a mediocre repaint. Good original interior, trim and plastic. Bought from the Tucker bankruptcy estate and driven only sparingly since, now showing just 5,228 miles from new. Used in the Tucker movie. Repainted in 2009. Includes one piece of fitted luggage, original spare keys and original seat covers as well as comoplete ownership history documentation. Cofer Family collection.

Market commentary

Advanced cars for their time, Tuckers suffered from insufficient development and an over confident promoter principal. Their mystique has remained powerful however and this largely original (it deserved a better repaint) low miles example brought a premium price.
