Equipment
325 310hp D500 dual quad Hemi, automatic, P S, P B, pushbutton radio, spinner wheel covers, wide whitewalls. Quick repaint, sound interior, pitted interior chrome, thin trim chrome and pitted door handles. Old undercoat on chassis, dead body seals. Engine and carbs freshly squirted with aluminum paint that still smells. Mostly original and sound, with no apparent body filler but pretty ugly. A good restoration project.
Market commentary
No Reserve. Primetime Friday. Unfortunately, at this price the restoration this Dodge so richly deserves is going to be financially risky. The gaudy, chrome festooned Mopars of the Fifties arent much appreciated by current collectors and even a sharp, fresh, accurate restoration isnt going to find much of an audience. The buyer paid convertible money for this Lancer which would have been a more prudent buy under $30K.
