About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Represented as freshly repainted, including some dust and masking oversights. The engine compartment is grubby and its paint is awful. Sound upholstery. Dull chrome, dirty wheels. There is little good to say about this Darrin.

Market commentary

Even the most cursory look at this Kaiser-Darrin would immediately reveal how superficially it has been treated. The new paint and upholstery are lipstick on a pig and it should have been bought for $60,000 as a restoration project. It is an awful car for which good car money was paid.
