About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Represented as the 14th Hot Shot built and with 400 miles on a rotisserie restoration. Incorrect tinted Plexiglass wind wings are bolted into the windshield frame and just don't look right. Clean engine bay. Wavy body sides. Average quality respray. Small cracks in the steering wheel. Huge cute factor, and restored but not overly so. These cars were always just toys for the most part, and that's still very much what this one is.

Market commentary

This was remarkably inexpensive. It could have brought another five grand without being expensive and even then the value of its cuteness hasn't caught up with even a neglected bubble car.
