Market commentary
Sold here in 2014 for $126,400 and at Auctions America Fort Lauderdale five years ago, in slightly worse shape, for $100,100. It also sold at Barrett-Jackson Palm Beach in 2018 for $132,000. The low six-figure range is consistent for this example and indeed for good '55 Eldos, which even at this price represent a good value in terms of rarity, design, performance and luxury.
