Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Flathead V8 with column shifted automatic, wide whitewall tires, fender skirts, P W, power top, P S, P B. Excellent older restoration with beautiful paint, bodywork, and chrome. Like new upholstery and dashboard. Listing claims it was driven only to shows and the impeccable condition supports it.

Market commentary

This car was nearly perfect, even 12 years after it was restored, but its price was beyond the leading edge of 53 Monterey convertible values. The bidders opinion of value was a stretch.
