About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

AACA Jr & Sr award winner & CTCI class winner. The paint is good with no flaws. Brightwork is good. Window trim on the passenger's side shows scratches, one small scratch on the windshield trim by where the hardtop connects. The interior is good with very light wear. Carpet shows no wear. The engine is clean and well detailed. Underbody shows slight dirt and very little wear. An older body-off restoration and proven show car. Its top days are behind it, but it would still do fine at the local level.

Market commentary

Stripped of power assists as it is a 3-speed with overdrive would be more appropriate, but the restoration and condition leave little or nothing to be desired. The seller no doubt wanted, and reasonably expected, more money but the new owner should be overjoyed with this T-bird's quality and condition at this bargain price.
