Equipment
3 speed, radio, wide whitewalls, hub caps and trim rings. Original except for some spot repaint on nicks. Needs some touch up on the trunk lid edges; some pitting on the hood ornament, side V8 emblems, hub caps, mirrors, and front crest retainers. Dirty steering column, plus heavily worn trim on center of steering wheel. A typical used car with old paint, light corrosion and road grunge on the undercarriage.
Market commentary
This was the beater of the Woodhead sale, and it is a car that at most auctions would be a star attraction. Thats how good the Woodhead collection was. This is not unreasonable money for this nearly pristine and original Ford, especially in an auction where the Ford collectors were carpeting the Woodhead museum in Twenty Dollar Bills.
