Fitted luggage, no belly pans. Very good paint, but some peeling underhood and doors and trunk dont fit flush. Very good interior and chrome. A shiny driver restoration. Origilly Silver with Blue plaid interior.

Market commentary

Looks to be a good value at this price for a driveable Gullwing that will impress onlookers. It takes a lot for a Gullwing to break $200,000 today.
