Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

4 speed, Becker Mexico radio, fitted luggage by Baiche. Two owners, 43,911 miles. Fair repaint showing sanding scratches under paint, radiator shell chrome scratched. Replacement engine. Good original interior and interior wood. 216 300S coupes built, something like 20 with sunroofs. This one is highly original, clean, presentable and driveable.

Market commentary

A no sale at last Falls NY Auto Salon at a reported $75,000 bid; the seller seems not to have gotten more real in the succeeding eight months, even though the markets position is clear.
