Equipment
330/255hp, automatic, chrome wire wheels, whitewalls, dual antennae, boot cover, pushbutton automatic, pushbutton radio with HighWay HiFi, dash clock.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Older restored engine bay. Dull older chrome and original grille. Good older paint. Original door handles and window frames. Newer seats and carpets but the rest of the interior is original. An older cosmetic restoration that left a few stones unturned. It's still a flashy and handsome car, but it won't win any shows.
Market commentary
Sold by Brooks Auctioneers at Quail Lodge in 1999 for $46,000, at Barrett-Jackson WestWorld in 2007 for $79,200 and by Worldwide at the Weinberg auction in 2009 for a nearly unbelievable $154,000. Based on that result it's no surprise the consignor decided to take it home but further trips across the block aren't going to make up for the fact it's a Fireflite that has seen better days. This is an offer that was imprudently declined.
