Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Steel wheels, wood rdi steering wheel and shift knob, Becker Mexico radio, belly pans fitted. Engine clean and like new. Blue Purosil water hoses are reliable if not correct. Excellent older restoration that shows some age but is still in great shape.

Market commentary

Bought at the middle of Christies estimate range, this seems like a very good buy in an older restored, and quite early, Gullwing that should bring its new owner great satisfaction.
