Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

292 193hp, 3 speed, Town & Country radio, overdrive, P S, 3 carbs on an Offenhauser intake, alternator, skirts, continental kit, wheel covers, blackwall tires. Decent repaint but now aged and chipped, soiled interior, oily underhood. 9,945 miles on odometer are probably accurate since the work was done by Lecoq in the early 90s. An enjoyable driver, but one that needs some attention.

Market commentary

With the speed equipment, overdrive three speed and alternator, this is a car that has more appeal as a European driver than to American restored beyond perfect tastes. Even that, however, does not support the price of 52,200 Euros, much less the $68,576 thats worth in dollars these days, that was paid for this ridden hard and put away wet T bird.
