Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Braced rollbar, 4-point belts.

Condition

Later 2,451cc/118hp engine, disc brakes. Vintage raced in the UK in the 70's. Horrible old repaint over visible sanding scratches, overspray everywhere. Sound upholstery on bucket style seats. Silver painted window trim. Scrofulous.

Market commentary

Despite selling at RM's Monaco auction in 2010 for $134,085 and Paris in 2017 for $149,912, RM notes that VAT (20%) is due on the full purchase price and commission bringing the total out of pocket to $115,447, likely accounting for the modest result it saw here, not to mention the effect of its despicable condition. This is a nasty ride not getting better with age.
