Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Dual antens and push button radio. An older restoration that still displays very well. The paint has a few chips and a small dent from shipping in the drivers rear quarter. One of the origil fifty with a long history. John OQuinn Collection.

Market commentary

Sold at Barrett Jackson in 2000 for $333,900 in about the same condition it is in today. This transaction was a revelation to everyone, a startling price that challenges logic but will make the executors of the OQuinn estate very happy while going a long way to making up for the present reduced values of some of Mr. OQuinns less astute purchases.
