Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Here it is again. An unfortunate excrescence now establishing a history of its own, a monument to bad taste, even on an S1 chassis (no prize in itself). Fisheyes and cracks in the paint, body contours by Bondo. Blechhhh.

Market commentary

Any amount of real money is too much for this Toad. The consignor should consider taking a Classic Tiffany in trade; or paint it metallic green, put plastic toad skin seat covers on it and sell it as the joke it is.
