Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Rudge wheels. Meticulously restored 1989 92 by M B for >$200K, less than 700km since. It must have been very carefully stored.

Market commentary

Aside from the fact the price realized is barely more than the restoration bills this is a reasonable result in todays market. The seller could not have reasonably expected any more than this.
