Good clearcoat paint that looks more recent than the restoration. Clean underbody with undercoat. Sound upholstery with plenty of stretch in the front. Weak aluminum trim, good chrome. Best days are behind it. Oscar Davis collection.
Market commentary
That applies as well to collectors' opinion of value which went from $825,000 at Worldwide's Houston auction in 2008 to a $600,000 no-sale at Gooding's Pebble Beach auction in 2010 to this unusually disappointing result in 2022. No doubt the condition has slipped as well, but this final price is 45% less than just fourteen years ago, much more than a "haircut" and a good value for such a rare body style.
