Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Chrome wire wheels. Excellent paint and interior but poor door fits and scratches on the drivers door window. Startling color that complements the Ghias style. High quality older restoration thats showing its age.

Market commentary

Another one, but not as good condition as this, sold for $80,850 at Kruse in Scottsdale two months ago, making this price look fair.
