About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Used but tidy engine bay. Lightly worn interior with some light discoloration on the white parts. Good paint and chrome. Touched up scratch above the right headlight. Reportedly one of only seven Skyliners with the F-Code engine. Drag raced to national class championship wins in 1957 and 1958. Now an older show quality restoration.

Market commentary

Sold at the RM Capizzi Collection sale in 2006 for $258,500. The F-Code T-Bird sold just before this Skyliner took a huge hit since the Capizzi sale and the same is true for this Skyliner. The result here was reasonable, leaving the consignor in shock after the T-Bird.
