Equipment
Fluid Drive, disc brakes, pushbutton radio, wheel covers, wide whitewalls. Sound original wood with good varnish but some joints slightly shrunken apart. Old undercoat on chassis, good paint, interior and chrome. A well maintained older cosmetic restoration with plenty of eye appeal. No Reserve.
Market commentary
This is good money for a 50 T&C, particularly for a Newport hardtop in this condition. A good driver, its award winning potential is limited to local shows, but it will still get plenty of attention. The estimate here is generous and based more upon the consignors glowing description than it is on a dispassionate evaluation. The seller should be very satisfied with this result.
