Equipment
Automatic, P S, P B, new chrome wire wheels, skirts, telescoping column, Town & Country radio, no soft top.
Condition
10,511 miles but superficially cosmetically restored some years ago with disappointing results. Fair paint, pitted trim chrome, decent interior, old undercoat on chassis. Nearly like new underhood but overall just a 20 driver.
Market commentary
Reported sold by RM in Arizona in 2003 for $44,000 but a no sale at Amelia Island earlier this year at a reported bid of $32,000. Bidding here settled down to two contenders at $45K and built to the $65K buying bid in $1K increments, a monster price for the caliber of this T Birds presentation and the loss of any semblance of originality in the mediocre restoration. It was a few minutes of auction magic but the resulting price is overly exuberant.
