Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Clock, belly pans, tool roll, spare, jack, manuals. Reportedly has a performance cam and short throw gearbox. Decent re dyed original leather except for a small tear on drivers seat. Small crease in hood and a chip on left front fender. Otherwise impossible to fault. Mid 90s Paul Russell restoration.

Market commentary

A good, sound and very attractive Gullwing bought for a fair price (particularly when compared with the astounding prices being paid across town at B J for two of them this weekend.) Gullwings have become hot properties and under the circumstances this one is well bought.
