Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Multiband radio, fog lights. 60,407 miles and one owner since 1965. Recent mechanical freshening by Hatch & Sons. Well maintained but showing its age. Blistered paint, drivers seat back edge worn, cracked interior wood varnish, good chrome. Chassis clean and original. A sound, usable and rare car but amply blessed with patina.

Market commentary

The bid is a reasonable wholesale offer for this 300Ss condition, known mileage and history. The estimate vastly overvalues its known miles and mediocre condition.
