Equipment
2,996/240hp, 4-speed, Rudge centerlock alloy wheels, belly pan, added Audiovox radio, from the Terrence E Adderley collection.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Represented as the original engine and Rudge wheels. Paint finish has dulled and there are cracks in the left fender, there are also scrapes and imperfections on the hood. The brightwork has a few scratches and the center of the Rudge wheels is dulling. The engine compartment and underbody shows its age but not overly patinaed. The interior shows wear and stretching to the seats and scuffs on the sill from entry and exit. An old looking restoration needing plenty of attention to be show worthy.
Market commentary
Purchased by Terry Adderley at Gooding's Amelia Island auction in 2012 for $715,000 and has added only 53 miles to the odometer since then. It reportedly has recently been tuned, detailed and had the brake cylinders rebuilt after ten years of mostly static display. It is not a particularly inspiring Gullwing that suffers by the color change (from Silver-Grey) and general neglect and is exceptionally expensive in this transaction.
