About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Sound paint, chrome and interior. Orderly engine compartment, clean chassis and underbody. Cracked dashboard varnish. The steering wheel is ugly, but probably more comfortable than the original. Door hinges are brushed brass, not chrome, an indication of the standards of the owner who restored it.

Market commentary

This TD would have been a better buy a few thousand dollars less than the successful bid, but that's hardly enough to call it expensive. Soundly restored and in good driving condition, it represents sound value for the money, even with the strange steering wheel rim.
