About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Tidy used engine bay. Decent older paint. Lightly wrinkled seats. Dull wheels. The whole car could benefit from a major detailing, but its restored and not at all bad. Formerly owned by Lee Iacocca, who reportedly had it for 30 years.

Market commentary

Despite being incorrectly represented by Mecum as a TD, this TF grabbed a lot of attention thanks to the Iacocca connection. Cars owned by famous people aren't always worth more, but sometimes they are, and in this case the car sold for about three times what an ordinary TF 1500 in this condition could expect to bring.
