About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Good older paint and chrome, but there is a large crack on the driverÆs door and some small cracks around the drip rails. Another long crack on the hood. Clean and tidy underneath. Very good seats, but the dash and gauges are original and look a bit tired. An older restoration, never done to show car standards but itÆs an attractive car.

Market commentary

This car sold for a reasonable $60,500 at Mecum Las Vegas in 2017, then again for an inexplicably high $95,700 at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale last year, then no-saled at a $55,000 high bid at Mecum Portland last year. One of those is not like the others, and the lower ones are realistic figures for a good but flawed Continental Mk II. This result is the most realistic of all.
