Condition

Acquired in derelict condition in 1993 by Gordon Willey and subsequently restored to high standards, today it shows little use and only moderate age Fuel tank has been replaced and is not connected, an indication of how much work will be needed to make it a running, driving car

Market commentary

The auction history is a little convoluted. I show this car sold at Brooks Olympia auction in April 1992 for $66,516 (GBP 37,400) and a no sale a year later at Olympia in February 1993 at GBP 25,000. The catalog states it was acquired by Gordon Willey in 1993. It has subsequently been restored to high standards of fit, finish and function so in essence the difference in the acquisition cost makes little difference except to highlight the sellers astute recognition of a landmark automobile. Eligible for many desirable events, this is a quality car at a healthy but not excessive price.
