Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

LHD. Sunroof, driving lights, column shift, original radio. Given to Mary Martin as a birthday present and used by her in Europe for about a year. Slowly restored from 1968 1988 and a consistent award winner since. Excellent cosmetics including the interior wood. In very good overall condition but now showing some age.

Market commentary

A healthy result for a Silver Dawn, but this one evidences careful use and sound cosmetic restoration throughout to nearly showroom condition. It has the aura of a good reliable car and that brought the money.
