Equipment
Hub caps, new Michelin Symmetry tires.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Single ownership from 1962 until 2019. Used as a daily driver for a time and showing 88,670 miles. Old repaint with numerous chips and scratches. Good, possibly redone chrome. Dry, cracked weather stripping all around. Sound interior with good leather, clean switchgear and clean gauges, but the steering wheel has some severe cracking. Small dent on the trunk. Tidy underneath. A Gullwing that is both unrestored and fresh to market is exciting to see, and this one is fundamentally solid and complete, just quite rough around the edges.
Market commentary
The reported high bid is entirely reasonable considering the work this Gullwing will undoubtedly need before being trusted to driving and touring events. Its survival in a single owner's hands for many years is a factor in its favor.
