Equipment
312/270hp E-Code dual-quad engine, automatic, chrome wire wheels, whitewalls, porthole hard top, fender skirts, later cassette stereo, added Selectair AC, power steering, power brakes.
Condition
From the LaQuay collection. Fully restored Arizona car. High quality but older paint with a long scratch by the hood. Headlight bezels don't fit straight. Microblisters on top of the doors. The doors also don't fit flush with the body. Very good restored interior. Light road wear underneath. A used top notch restoration of a desirably equipped E-Code Baby Bird in a great color.
Market commentary
The result here doesn't make a whole lot of sense. This car sold at Leake Dallas in 2013 for $61,600, and prices for good E-Code Baby Birds have only gone up since then. If Mecum put a pre-sale estimate on this car, somewhere close to six figures wouldn't have seemed unreasonable, but at no reserve the car brought what a pretty rough example with this equipment would normally bring.
