Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

292 200hp, 3 speed, overdrive, Town & Country radio, dual remote spotlights, door window visors, folding rear seat, roof rack, wire wheel covers, wide whitewalls. Upholstery is new but door and interior panel trim looks original. A rare and neat car with a disappointingly superficial cosmetic restoration. Side chrome trim fits unevenly, paint not wet sanded along front of hood, chrome on fins over taillights is thin. Firewall is Grey like fender sides and roof but cowl and hood are White. Odd. Dirty and neglected anywhere it is the least bit difficult to see, chassis has a small but noticeable list to starboard. A car that isnt anywhere close to being as good as it looks.

Market commentary

Dont misunderstand, this is an exceptionally neat and unusual car, it is just superficially done and gets more disappointing with every closer look. A real auction car, and to judge by this price it worked. Mid to high Thirties would have been plenty to pay for it.
