Equipment
292 212hp, automatic, dog dish hubcaps, tach on dash, underdash gauges. A particularly mundane car which has had a remarkably good cosmetic restoration. Seat upholstered in non stock pattern. Paint and bodywork are better than the interior.
Market commentary
The reported high bid is more related to the money the consignor has spent on this Fairlanes restoration than on its inherent value, which is more like $9,000 than $18,000. The money spent on paint, bodywork, chrome and interior was largely wasted.
