Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Not a credit to the consignor. Magnet proofed, poorly masked, poor panel fits, dead rubber windshield seals. Dash instruments and knobs old and tired. A superficial cosmetic restoration that all needs to be undone for a fresh start. Engine number appears to be from a 56 Normal.

Market commentary

A late uncataloged consignment, the auctions quality would have been improved if it had stayed home, however the seller hit a home run with this result; the buyer acquired a Bondo bucket and an ample inventory of headaches. Cars like this do not enhance auctions reputation as a good way to buy collector cars.
