About Hagerty’s condition ratings
One of five C-3 Vignale cabriolets built, shown at Pebble Beach by Irving Robbins in 1956 and 1957, later owned by Briggs’ daughter Lucie. Sound paint. Good panel fits and gaps. Attractive upholstery, good chrome. The chassis, however, is old, dirty and neglected.
Market commentary
Not as nice as it might be but attractive from ten feet without looking underneath, this is a generous price but not unreasonable considering this C-3 Cunningham’s history brings with it an historical bonus.
