Equipment
Fluid Flywheel, fender mirrors, banjo spoke steering wheel, hubcaps, trim rings, whitewalls, fog light, driving light, heater, single side-facing rear seat.
Condition
Sound repaint, chrome, interior and new top. Fresh but not exquisite. Old, dried out door seals. Superficially repainted underbody. Hood and cowl paint don't match. Top of the engine is tidied up but the chassis is old and grungy. A recent cosmetic redo to auction car standards.
Market commentary
Less bizarre than many Daimlers of the 1950s, no car got more attention during the preview than this one. Even so, its auction-car presentation was accurately reflected in the price it brought.
